Negative Hercules Moving Reviews
Yelp
They broke our glass table and only deducted $100, plus wrapped trash instead of valuables. Over $1,100 for small move, and long delays. Poor value and bad care.
Yelp
Crew left items behind during the move and refused to return to finish the job for my elderly mother. Charged $288 for 25 minutes of incomplete service.
Serghei Iftodi, Google
Several damages to my furniture were reported immediately but after 1.5 months and multiple calls and emails, no one responded or addressed my concerns.

Milton was courteous. The team got slow after a few hours and the bed was assembled incorrectly, which led to issues. No one followed up about the problem. IDK
Carmel Queen, Google
They went to the store with our things on the truck, stacked boxes poorly, and parked in handicapped spots. Did arrive within window, but I waited a week for my invoice.
