It all started with a single question.
Why isn’t there a niche property portal for the downsizers and retiree market?
It was 2003, and as the eldest daughter & daughter-in-law, we had just started the search for accommodation options for elderly parents. It wasn’t an easy or a pleasant experience and there was very little information available online.
It got us thinking – so we started talking to other families in similar situations and found they were just as confused and frustrated as we were.
So we built Downsizing.com.au, a website designed to be easy to use - a one-stop-portal to help consumers easily navigate the fragmented and complex retirement living and aged care sector in Australia.

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.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, it can, as long as you notify us before booking your move.
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.
The packing service is not included in our standard pricing. Please check with our support team to get a quotation.
The earlier you book your move the more confident you can be that the date you wish to move will be available. However, the time in advance that you should book is heavily dependent on the time of year. Between October and March we recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks in advance of when you want to move. From March - September you can leave it a little later, booking 2-3 weeks out.
If you change your list of items or space required a week before your move, we can usually adjust the price accordingly. In some circumstances this won’t be possible depending on the booking volume and amount of change and notice provided.
Dismantling and assembling the furniture are not included in our standard pricing but can easily be added to your moving service, just ask.
Preferably No, It is better to use a fitted sheet on each side of your mattresses to enclose.
