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.

Fantastic service, always go above and beyond and more than happy to answer questions. I’ll never use another company as I know 100% I get the best price and best service with Muval. I highly recommend for anybody looking at moving interstate to contact these guys, I’ve used them twice.

The move was quite a bit cheaper than I thought, thanks to the speedy movers who handled the furniture with care. Also big kudos to Leroy for arranging the move so quickly and liaising with the movers!
Glad to have Jay from moval assisting me with my move.
Jay was incredibly helpful when l was booking my interstate move. Being a return customer, he made sure I got a great deal and although I booked the move 3 days before my move date, he managed to work with the removalists to lock in dates t...
Great service! Mitchell from Muval was super helpful and made the experience stress-free and as affordable as possible, even checking in with me after the delivery :) I went with Fragile Removals & Storage. Took exactly 4 weeks from Brisban...
Karla is very patient and professional who helped a lot,good price and very responsive,highly recommended
My experience with Muval was very simple, helpful and easy. They source a number of quotes for removalists for you when you make an online enquire to easily compare prices and help out every step of the way to secure a booking for your choi...
Wonderful service with fantastic communication and follow-up. Melina was our contact and I was very impressed with her friendly while professional manner. For an interstate move it was the best decision engaging Muval. I was offered two quo...
Highly recommended everything went very smoothly would recommend to anyone looking to move!!
Really good and supportive, also responding and active with requests.
Recently booked an interstate move with Sharon. She made the whole process easy, seamless, and worked within our budget. Highly recommend Sharon and Muval team!
The agent was incredibly responsive to our unique needs, especially when moving hardware that doesn't fit neatly into online moving quote lists. Prices are incredibly competitive and it takes the hassle out of having to go out and compare a...
It was great to work with Mitchell on a moving job to a new house, he was quite responsive and made our experience to move seamless. Thanks Mitchell.
Sharon at Muval went above and beyond in trying to answer my needs with my move from Perth to Sydney. In the end I went with another company only because all of my specific needs were met. This decision did in no way retract from Sharon and...
Win has been super patient, empathetic and helpful to organise movers for me. I recommend her service and will reach out to her for future moves as well. Thank you, Win!
I called a long list of removal companies to quote on a job at a reasonable rate. I was left feeling completely frustrated. I then called Muval who made a huge effort to come up with a viable solution. They provided several options, which s...
Carina was fabulous, explained everything in detail and when she saw both my partner and I reached out for a quote she used details from both of our requests and got us a great dea
I recently purchased some furniture in Sydney (I live in Melbourne) and Muval were able to quickly connect me with a removalist in Sydney who could pick up my purchase and then deliver it down to Melbourne. All went very quickly and smoothl...
I moved home recently and needed removalists at fairly short notice, seven days later, to help us move within the Newcastle area. I called quite a few individual removalists and found it was hard to get someone at short notice. Muval was ea...
Easy to use, quick to get 3 quotes. Great follow up on my initial inquiry.
Jay was absolutely fantastic! Great price, great discussion and just a good bloke to deal with. Feel comfortable the move is going to go well with his level of professionalism.
I stumbled across Muval whilst searching the web for removalists and am so happy I gave them a call as they were a pleasure to deal with. Mitchell from Muval was so incredibly helpful. He answered questions patiently and managed to get me t...

All furniture items will be wrapped in heavy removalist quilted padding to best protect your furniture; Some removalists will also use shrink wrap as well.
It is preferred if you or your representative to be present at the pickup and drop off.
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.
This can be organised but will incur an extra charge.
Yes. This varies depends on which company you are using. Usually, the minimum charge is based on the cost of transporting 5 cubic metres.
Muval is a booking platform. We find reliable moving companies at a competitive rate. We help companies fill their space with customers that are happy to fit in with the truck schedule. It is called a shared load option.
Packing and unpacking boxes for your house is not usually included by default when you book a removalist. This is a service that needs to be booked separately (you can do this through Muval) or done yourself, and is best arranged for a day or two before your removalist is scheduled to do your uplift.
In our experience, people always dramatically under estimate the time it takes to pack their house, and it's usually one of the most burdensome tasks of moving! If you're packing yourself, make sure you start early and do a couple of boxes a day. Otherwise, save yourself the hassle and book packing services through Muval. Your future self will thank you.
When looking at your kitchen, the industry standard is one book carton to each cupboard door.
