tipping movers

We will have one set of movers to get us out of our house, then a different set in a few weeks to move us into our new place. How much would you tip each person each day?

Re: tipping movers

  • I'd tip each mover 20 bucks or so, personally. If they're moving you across state lines or a very long distance, I'd  go higher. But going rates might vary from area to area.
  • We weren't allowed to tip our movers (company policy) so we bought them lunch (subway) and their favorite beverage (red Gatorade and mountain dew). They were THRILLED.

  • We recently had movers come to move things out of our house.  We are in the process of buying our new house so our stuff has not been delivered yet.  Anyway, there were 4 people that came to move us out and I had no idea whether or not I was supposed to tip.  They were at our house for about 7 hours.  I bought donuts in the morning, did an afternoon coffee run, and  ended up giving them $50 total.  I said something about, "hopefully this can buy a couple of rounds tonight."

  • We gave ours $20 a piece and bought them lunch and non alcoholic drinks.

  • We tipped about $100 total, but our movers were so fantastic, they made everything incredibly stress free, and they moved us about 4 hours away.
  • We tipped 100 bucks.
