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.

Elly was very easy to talk to and was very helpful in arranging the right removalists for us. Great service.
Jay was super helpful with booking a removalist. He was flexible and catered to my change of moving date, and got me an amazing deal. I highly recommend him to help you with your next move!!
I have felt very safe dealing with this company twice now. I'm a naturally suspicious person when it comes to these kind of booking services, but I found the team at Muval to be very accommodating and not in the slightest bit pushy. They al...

Shaz was super helpful and responsive in providing the best quote for my move. Would highly recommend their service.
Sharon has been an awesome help with my move. Very Responsive and Professional! Thank you so much!
Managed to arrange a last minute team for a Monday morning move late on a Friday. Extremely helpful and plenty of communication to assist in any query.
I have used Muval twice to identify the best removalists for moves interstate and intrastate - both times the services was fast, easy and took the stress of me having to weight up the various options. Highly recommend
Our moving consultant Karla was/is outstanding, helping us navigate the daunting interstate move. Would highly recommend using Muval and will use again in the future.
Truly excellent. Organised, great comms, easy, polite, helpful, accomodating. Job done. And cheaper per hour than what my mate paid recently.
After a few quotes which I sourced myself, I knew I was going to need help with my move. On appearance there seems to be a lot of scams and sharks operating in this industry. Muvals (Anthony in Brisbane in particular) exceeded my expectatio...
The boys are very professional they respect your property they dont rush The truck is organised clean. I could not have asked for anything more they went above, and beyond they deserve 10 stars. God bless and thank you for making the move a...

Frequently asked questions
Learn from the moving experts. Can't find an answer? Call us on: 1300 168 825
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.
Dismantling and assembling the furniture are not included in our standard pricing but can easily be added to your moving service, just ask.
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.
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.
The best way to ensure a successful move day is to be prepared. One way to do this is to notify your removalist about any very heavy or awkward-to-move items before move day. It can never hurt to double-check with them that they understand that you have these items, even if you have also submitted an inventory list. These sorts of items include:
- Grand / Baby grand piano
- Pizza oven
- Concrete furniture
- Pool / snooker tables (particularly slate)
- Many pot plants / large pot plants
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.
A cubic metre is 1m x 1m x 1m. A full-sized container size is 38m3.
Truck sizes vary from 20m3 to 70m3 and sometimes 100m3.
Yes. This varies depends on which company you are using. Usually, the minimum charge is based on the cost of transporting 5 cubic metres.
