The tip is usually 15 to 20% of the total price of the move. However, when hiring long-distance moves, you'll have to tip both moving teams. A good way to know how to tip them is to divide the total price of the move in two (to take into account both crews) and calculate the tip based on that. A good rule of thumb for tipping players is to leave a tip of 10 to 20 percent of the amount of the bet per every player.
You can also tip depending on the work involved in the move. For example, between 20 and 30 dollars per move for a basic move is a good place to start. Since tips aren't required during the moving process, you decide the right amount. You can choose to give a fixed tip to the moving company or give them a percentage of the total cost of the move.
While a tip for a standard move can range from 20 to 30 dollars, a long distance move can cost between 40 and 50 dollars per move. If you want to do it by percentage, consider the cost of hiring a moving company: a small local move can cost a few hundred dollars or less, or thousands if you're moving a house with several rooms across state lines. While you should always tip moving companies (and all service workers) for a job well done, it's okay not to tip moving companies in certain situations. Consider the difficulty of moving, the level of care with which they transport your belongings and the overall performance of the moving company.
