Why our removalists are different

Muval removalists are a new standard for quality and care.

Each furniture removals company available on our platform must pass our 7-step verification process. We also conduct regular audits and check-ups to make sure vital insurances are up-to-date, and quality standards are being upheld. Many of our removalists are also members of the Australian Furniture Removalists Association (AFRA).

When you book your removalist with Muval, you get a company that cares about going the extra mile to make sure your next move is an easy one.

It's moving, the way it should be.

I'm absolutely thrilled with the experience I had when getting a quote from Muval for my removal needs. The process was incredibly smooth and convenient.

The first thing to do once you’ve moved into your new home is to check the house. Check out Chapter 4 of our moving house guide for a detailed outline of what to do after you move.

We encourage bookings ASAP, and this will hold the price, reserve the space, and give you peace of mind. This can also mean you avoid any future price rise.

To see the pricing, you will need to click on the link in your email. This will take you to our website where you can see your options.

Each company has differing policies about notification before the pickup and delivery. Some companies can provide a time window on booking, others provide this the day before, while others will provide notice within an hour of their arrival. 

No one expects that you keep the original box that your TV came in when you bought it. Most removalists can provide special TV moving cardboard boxes that can help to keep your TV safe and secure while being transported (make sure you enquire about this before your move day. Otherwise, you can protect your television by wrapping it in blankets and then wrapping that tightly in cling film. Finally, as a peace of mind measure, we recommend purchasing one of our affordable moving insurance policies to protect your most valuable possessions like your TV in case of an accident.

When quoting on your job, we provide the name and reviews of the company that matches your inquiry. Although we vet every company on our system, we encourage you to do your own due dilligence on the company you choose.

It is preferred if you or your representative to be present at the pickup and drop off.

The cost for your local move will depend on how long your move takes. Some dishonest moving companies quote very cheap hourly or half-hourly rates to get your job, and then work slowly on the day or surprise you with additional charges in order to make more money.

Unless they are running a limited special offer, most honest removal companies need to charge at least $45 per half hour or more in order to pay their staff (two people usually come to load and unload the truck for you), pay their insurances, and make sure their trucks are serviced regularly.
