This should have actually been my first review. But first or one-hundred-and-first review, one thing remains the same - WIN VANLINE Moving Systems is great. Though when I moved with them back in June, they were Smooth Moves (so that changed).
I was moving from my former two bedroom Hades (I mean arrangement) to my current one bedroom Nirvana on short notice (my roommate told me about three weeks before he moved out). I had just gotten back from a road trip to Washington D.C. and moving was the last thing on my mind; but Smooth Moves found time to squeeze me in. Though it did take me asking for an extra week in my old apartment (since they're relatively part-time and only move people in the evenings after their full time jobs) to find a time they could move me.
Certain aspects of the move seemed shady over the phone; but I promise anyone who uses them it's not. The quote they give is pretty accurate (they were actually one minute quicker than promised) and they show up mostly on time - in a full sized truck which fit my entire half of a large two bedroom apartment (one load). There is a surcharge for stairs so be prepared (third floor to third floor made the move a bit more expensive).
These guys move things fast. The employees use moves as cross training for triathalons and marathons. They barely broke a sweat moving things that exhausted me just to look at; and they'll also dispose (of pretty much anything legal) and arrange if it fits in the schedule.
The reason this should have been my first review was at the end of every move they ask people to Yelp them. When they asked back in June, I asked myself, "what is this Yelp thing?" But six months and 60% of my social life later, I still stand behind them and their somewhat coerced reviews. They earn all the word of mouth they can get - internet or no.
