According to a recent Forbes article, you should tip movers about 20% of the total cost. Some moving companies include gratuity in their estimates, so ensure you are not double tipping. It's also customary to give each mover moving your stuff $20 to $50, depending on the amount of work and the working conditions.

However, you should expect to pay between $80 and $400 per hour depending on how many bedrooms you're moving, if you have any specialty items, etc.
