Sudan is located in Northern Africa, bordered by Egypt, Eritrea, South Sudan and Ethiopia. The capital city is Khartoum and it's one of the most popular cities for expats due to its vibrant culture and rich history. Other major cities include Port Sudan on the Red Sea coast, Medani in central Sudan and Omdurman on the west bank of the Nile River.

Popular landmarks include Meroe Pyramids near Omdurman, Jebel Barkal near Karima and Suakin Island on the Red Sea Coast - which was once a major trading port between Europe and Africa in medieval times.

What Clients say About Us

This company is the best delivery services. Specially 2 strong man delivery the Piano U1 48" for me... Both young strong man very nice service. They are very care for the product they delivery. Great job and I will recommend these Montreal movers to all my friends or anyone ask me for delivery.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Edmonton movers. Igor from Hercules answered all my questions and provided a quote that was the best of the five other moving companies I called. The movers arrived promptly and working quickly but with considerable care and had everything packed up much quicker than expected. We were simply blown away by the professional demonstrated by both movers. Very satisfied customer.

Vivid Reflection

With short notice, Hercules Moving Company was able to book my piano moving during a time that worked well for me. Other companies I had looked into were not as flexible and were more expensive. They were very professional. I would definitely use Hercules Oshawa Moving Company again, and would absolutely recommend them.

Hercules Moving Company did a great job moving my piano. They took great care to ensure no damages to the piano or my floors. They were also very efficient and professional. I would definitely use them again if I require moving services in the future, and I am happy to recommend them to my family and friends.

If you still in doubt of what piano movers in Toronto to choose - hope you read my review :) Hercules Movers did an excellent job of relocating a grand piano from a music school to my house and additionally advised me a professional piano tuner. Extra care service, friendly and skilled movers, which were extremely accurate and protected the piano as well as floors, walls and stairs.

The movers showed up on time and ready to work, they were very efficient and professional. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Hercules movers was amazing. They moved a piano and freezer from an apartment to my house this past June 2017. They were meticulous with wrapping and moving my piano (and this feedback was from the person whose apartment they were moving it from, who has moved over 10 times in his life and is very particular about his belongings and getting things done right!). They also covered their shoes and laid down runners so as not to dirty or damage the floors. They really took their time and were incredibly professional.I would recommend whole-heartedly!

Wow. Hercules exceeded my expectations. Moved from a 2 bedroom condo to 3 bedroom town house this past week (July 7 2017). The 3 young men were on time, polite and respectful of all my belongings. I was nervous about this move as I had never hired a moving company before, usually moved with friends and family. And with the negative press about movers I wasn't sure how well it was going to go. It went better than I expected for less money too! Would recommend this company without reservation.

Laura Ellen

I am very happy with these movers. They showed up on time with polite, respectful and hard working people and got the job done right. These Guelph movers moved me out, stored my belongings for 3 weeks while I renovated my new place and moved me in today. I would use them again for sure. The ease of full service for both moving and storage was of great value to me.

Pick up and delivery were done right on time. Very professional. They even cleaned the rear side of the piano for me. Highly recommended.

Gentle Giant

We initially hire Hercules to move our piano, but after our bad experience with our previous mover we hire them for our 2nd move with our entire household content. They were efficient, helpful and most importantly stronger than over mover. They blanketed old furniture and disassembled and reassembled the furniture back in place. They were accommodating and had stair mats and cover on the floor so that we didn't have to do major clean up after the move. We really appreciated their patience in positioning our grand piano into the exact angle we needed in the room. I will recommend them. My elderly mother also hired them and they took care of her move as well. She really appreciated the hassle free experience.

Nancy Wolfe

We had a lot of delicate furniture to move from a large house to an apartment. The guys wrapped up everything in blankets in cellophane and even were kind enough to move two sofas into our next door neighbor's house. Very highly recommended.

Homeowner Toronto

Outstanding small moves service. The company exceeded my high expectations! The moving crew members were friendly, efficient, proficient and caring, and worked as a cohesive team.

Having been taken in the past by other moving companies with last minute charges and other last minute surprises, we were so pleasantly surprised by the professional work of this company. They were on time, never slowed down to generate extra hours. They explained everything clearly to my wife and delivered all of the items promptly. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. They might be a little bit more in cost but are worth every penny. A job extremely well done.

They call me before they come. They arrived on time and they do this job very professional. I am very satisfied. Thank you!
