"The company lives by low quote and high…"

The company lives by low quote and high invoice. Don't fall victim to this scam.

"We hired this company to move our items…"

We hired this company to move our items from BC to SK. The deposit was paid, and we were told our items would be delivered approximately 3 weeks from pick up. We were reaching the end of the 3 weeks and I had not heard from the company. I reached out to inquire about the arrival date and was told now the items would be an additional 4 weeks before delivered with no explanation.

Upon the arrival of our belongings at the end of the 4 weeks the movers on site told us that in error of the company our items were shipped to Toronto. They also told us that our mattress did not arrive, and they were unsure where it was. Once we had the opportunity to go through our inventory check list checking each item off, we realized additional items were also missing. Three large utility bins did not arrive. We immediately contacted the company to notify them of this.

We were told the mattress had been located but not the bins yet. Over a week passed and we had not heard back. We reached out by phone numerous times to no call back. When emailing asking when our mattress would be delivered and the update on locating the other missing items, we were told the mattress will arrive in a few weeks, no set date provided, and then to look more thoroughly though our items as they could not find the bins. We have asked if they are still looking on their end for the missing items, this has received no response. We have asked what the next steps for reimbursement of lost items are, again no response.

The company made an error resulting our belongings to go to additional unnecessary warehouses and moving trucks, ultimately displacing, and losing our belongings. Items lost are their responsibility because of this error.

We lost thousands of dollars of items and they offered 10c/lb, amounting to 60 dollars of reimbursement. If you care about your belongings, I could not recommend strongly enough to never use this company.

"I recently relocated from Toronto to Vancouver "

I recently relocated from Toronto to Vancouver with Hercules, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Moving a four-bedroom house with full packing can be quite daunting, but Hercules made everything seamless and stress-free. From the initial consultation to the final delivery, everything was perfect. The team was incredibly professional and efficient, ensuring that all of my belongings were carefully packed and transported without any issues. Despite the long distance, the move was completed promptly, and all of my items arrived in pristine condition. I highly recommend Hercules for anyone planning a long-distance move. Their exceptional service and attention to detail truly set them apart. Thank you, Hercules, for making my relocation a smooth and hassle-free experience!

"IN competent"

When you are planning a move and need someone who is really "IN"...this company may seem to be what you are looking for.

They are INtransigent, INsulting, and, whether on your premises or in their offices, INcompetent.

Let's review this:

You are planning to have renovations done and need to have furniture removed, stored for a brief period, and then be returned. Everything has been discussed and agreed upon weeks in advance. A contract is in place.

You have retired after a lifetime of office work and are now 80 years old. You are divorced and have remarried.

Fifteen minutes before the truck arrives to begin the work you get a phone call and learn that Toronto police just called your ex-wife and informed her that your son is dead.

The truck arrives and your wife tells the men what just happened and that you are deeply upset.

The two men get to work, wrapping everything in blankets. They are slooooow and they apparently left their competence tool kit and instruction book back at the shop. Things sloooowly go out to the truck. Then comes the queen-size bed. The box spring gets stuck between the stairs and the overhang of the ceiling at the bottom. They jam it into the ceiling and the side wall, damaging both. They cannot move it and ask how it came in.They are told Leon's delivered it with no problem. Multiple times they tried to force it out, failing and jamming it each time, while also causing more damage. They took it back upstairs to see if it would go out a window, and after seeing the windows were too small, they brought it down again. Finally, after more than twenty minutes of repeated failures, they jammed it hard in place, called their company on their phone and then announced that it could not be done, so it would have to be left there.

Remember....you are an 80year old retired office worker, but despite the shock and intense upset you feel from just learning that your son is dead, you may still have a more active brain than these pseudo- "professional" movers, and you cannot deal with a box spring blocking the stairs after these twits depart, so you look at it for a few seconds, decide which angle would work best, and then ....in less than one minute, and working without their help, .....you extend your hands and use those aging office muscles to pull it free from its jammed position and out the door.

You pay the outrageous bill where charges are counted up for the time these men wasted and complain to the company by text message.

Then, enter someone whose quality of writing indicates a barely-passing grade for a Grade 10 student and who tells you that the "professional" movers disagreed with your description of events and that because of the problems those same "professional" movers had with the mattress they will not be returning it upstairs.. Apparently this student does not understand or recognize contracts., but he/she causes you immense upset as you are dealing with funeral details and now they are not only refusing to return the mattress, but he/she also says they will not accept any damage claim!


It turned out a different crew brought everything back and, after taking advice from you as to angles needed, they were able to get the box spring upstairs in only one minute.

They assembled the bed and mirror/dresser , were paid and they left. Good men, both of them, but they left behind a problem.
.
The next day, when you attempted to move the dresser/mirror to clean behind it, as you had done dozens of times before, the mirror fell to the floor, breaking a small section on one side. Upon examination it was seen that, where total eight mounting screws were required to properly mount and retain the mirror, only four had been used and those were not only of mixed head types, they were all smaller in both diameter and length than needed. This was the reason the mirror came off. . (All were #6 screws of one inch length)_

The break was about three inches in length, but you already knew the insulting grade 10 student is intransigent, so you accept that any claim will be denied, and you put the mirror back, using eight screws of correct size (#8 and one and a half inches in length) that all fit perfectly.. The cracked mirror is again secured in place and the dresser can again be safely moved.

Their pricing is about the same as a real professional moving company so, if some similar deplorable experience is what you are willing to pay for, go for it!

"Donot care a out customers or their belongings"

We used Hercules for a home move. Initially the move went well however afterwards we discovered some damages and initiated a claim.

They damaged a wall cirner, bent a chair, damaged our $1500 couch, piled so muxh on our bins marked fragile that they busted apart, list a chair mat,misassembled furniture.

Their idea of resolution was to try to shame us for having purchased from Ikea as it is poorly made and that they do not take responsibility for that type of furniture.

They used parts that did not belong to our furniture and comprimised its integrity.
They offered $70 to repair the wall and denied wrecking the couch but offered $120.00 (for a 1500.00 couch even though one of their workers came to my house and made it clear that they messed it up.

I included Igor and Vidas in all my emails and neither of them had the decency to contact me.

We offered to settle for $500.00 but this company would rather be taken to court, reported to BBB and reported to CRA for cash transactions then pay a claim.
