When getting ready for your move, it\u2019s important to keep in mind how much to tip your movers. You want to make sure you include the mover\u2019s tip in your moving budget<\/a>. Several factors can determine how much to tip movers. You can tip $5 to $10 per mover per hour, or you can tip 15 percent to 20 percent of the total bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our essential guide for tipping movers will go over factors to consider for a tip, general guidelines, special circumstances, non-monetary tipping options, and some tipping etiquette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Factors to Consider for a Tip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A tip amount can increase or decrease depending on several factors. How much to tip movers can depend on quality of service, difficulty of the move, and the level of professionalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quality of service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Local movers who treat your belongings like their own showcase how much they care for your possessions. A mover who takes the time to properly lift, load, and set down your items without breaking anything is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Difficulty of the move<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you have a difficult move, and the movers are efficient with your move, you might increase your tip for each mover. If you have some light-weight furniture pieces to move from your dining room to your living room, you might not tip movers as much as other movers who had to go down three flights of stairs and through tight hallways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weather conditions that are poor could make your move harder to move. Movers who work through these conditions might earn a higher tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Level of professionalism<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Taking great care of your belongings, but being friendly and warm toward you, your family, and your friends. Moving crews who are respectful and considerate could earn a larger increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have an eight-hour move, your movers probably won\u2019t work as fast as they did in hour one compared to hour eight. You\u2019ll still see the difference between local moving labor Service Providers who are tired and working hard vs. movers who are purposely taking their time, going slow, and taking multiple breaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A moving company needs to show up on time. It shows punctuality and politeness. Moving companies<\/a> that arrive early instead of late deserve to be noticed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a moving company is going to be late, you might consider reducing their tips. When movers realize they\u2019re going to be late to your home, they should call you as soon as possible and inform you of when they\u2019ll arrive at your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

General Guidelines for Tipping Movers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Moving Help\u00ae<\/a>, a tip isn\u2019t included in your moving quote. You get to decide how much you want to tip your Service Providers from Moving Help. You can tip the moving labor providers a percentage of the total moving cost, or you can tip per helper per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A 20 percent tip for the total moving cost is a great tip. A good range could be 15 to 20 percent of the total moving cost. Of course, you can tip more than 20 percent of the total moving cost if your local moving labor team is superb and went beyond expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You also have the choice to tip each helper per hour. You can tip $5 to $10 \u2014 or more \u2014 per helper per hour. If you pay two Moving Helpers for two hours, you could tip them anywhere from $20-$40.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both options have pros and cons. A total percentage of the move can get expensive quickly, but you might want to pay more if you decide to pay per helper per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special Circumstances for Tipping Movers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some special circumstances for tipping movers might help you decide how much you should tip them. You can adjust your tip accordingly to the following circumstances:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Long-distance moves<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A move across the country will require two different moving companies. One moving company to help you load your items, and one moving company to help you unload your items. You\u2019ll need to remember tipping movers for both sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Moving during peak season<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Moving has seasons where it can be busy and where it can be slow. When you move during peak season, movers might have three, four, or more jobs in the same day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even when moving labor teams are super busy but they\u2019re doing a job well done with your home, it could increase their tip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

3. Moves that require extra labor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most common moving order at Moving Help is two helpers for two hours. If you have a large home or a complex move, you might need an extra helper or two. This will mean you\u2019ll have a larger tip to give to your Moving Helpers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Moves that require extra hours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A move with four flights of stairs will take some more time when moving belongings up or down the stairs compared to a home with no stairs. This might mean your move will require extra hours to complete it. You\u2019ll need to make sure you account for this larger tip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Specialty moves<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Local Service Providers who need to move a customer\u2019s piano, gun safe<\/a>, or heavy items could earn a higher tip because specialty moves aren\u2019t easy to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a provider carefully moves an upright piano<\/a> or a grand piano<\/a> without leaving any scratches on your musical instrument or home, that deserves some praise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Extra stairs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Moving items up and down flights of stairs isn\u2019t an easy task. When movers handle your belongings quickly and efficiently when it involves stairs, you might consider tipping them more money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Difficult conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tight hallways, multiple stairs, long distance between the home and the U-Haul rental truck<\/a>, or weather could make your move have more difficult conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easier to move belongings from the garage of a home to a rental truck that\u2019s parked outside the garage on a driveway during a cool, sunny day. Whereas a move involving four flights of stairs of your apartment and then 100 yards to the rental truck on a cold, rainy day will make it more difficult to move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Non-Monetary Tipping Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
\"A<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Maybe you\u2019re trying to figure out how much to tip movers but ultimately decide you\u2019d rather pay them another way besides money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can pay movers with refreshments, leaving a review for them, referring them to friends or family, or buying lunch. You also can talk to your moving company about what are some other options to show your appreciation that doesn\u2019t include money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget that if you feel desired, you can reward your movers with a monetary tip and a non-monetary tip. For example, you can tip them with cash and give them some lunch if your move takes a long time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tipping Etiquette<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When planning to tip your local moving company, you should come prepared. You should get your cash ahead of time, and you should get smaller bills in case you want to increase or decrease your original tip amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You should give each helper their individual tip and say, \u201cThank you.\u201d It\u2019s a nice thing to say \u201cthank you\u201d along with handing a tip to each mover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each helper should receive their tip personally from you for two reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first reason is if you hire four movers, but one of the movers was slacking compared to the rest of them. You can reward the other three movers with a higher tip. The second reason is knowing each mover received their tip. While it rarely happens, sometimes the lead mover might keep the entire tip to themself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This ensures everyone receives the tip you wanted them to receive along with saying, \u201cThank you\u201d for a job well done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Much to Tip Movers Is up to You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

You ultimately get to decide how much your Moving Help<\/a> Service Providers will get tipped.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can tip them using the method of paying a percentage of the total cost. You also can pay them per helper per hour. You can pay anywhere from 15 percent to 20 percent of the total bill. You can pay a range of $5 to $10 per helper per hour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complexity of a move, special circumstances, and how they treat you and your belongings may increase or decrease their total tip. You can choose to pay them in another way besides money.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tipping<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Q: Is $100 a good tip for movers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> Depending on how much your total move costs or how many movers and hours you hired, it could be a great tip. You can determine whether a $100 is a good tip based on your own move and how you want to pay your local movers \u2014 a percentage of the total bill or per helper per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: Do I tip my mover when they load or unload or both?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> The answer is: It depends. You can choose to tip the helpers after the loading and then again after the unloading. You can pay them their entire tip after they\u2019re done loading and unloading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, if you\u2019re moving across the country, you\u2019ll most likely hire two different moving companies. You\u2019ll want to pay the movers who helped you load your items, and you\u2019ll want to pay the helpers who helped you unload your items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: What if my movers broke my items, do I still need to tip them?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> You aren\u2019t required to tip your movers, especially if they broke your belongings. A tip shows your appreciation of how careful and respectful they were to you and your items. If your moving company was reckless, irresponsible, rude, or gave a poor customer experience, you shouldn\u2019t tip your movers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: Is $25 a good tip for movers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> Depending on how much your total move costs or how many movers and hours you hired, it could be a good tip. You can determine whether a $25 is a good tip based on your own move and how you want to pay your local movers \u2014 a percentage of the total bill or per helper per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: Can I pay movers another way besides money?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> Yes, you can offer to pay your movers in another way. You can pay for them with food, refreshments, gift cards, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind, 3 percent of your tip will be used to cover the credit card charge processing fees. Therefore, if you wanted to tip them $30, but you don\u2019t want the 3 percent taken out of the $30, you\u2019ll need to leave a $31 tip online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: When do I tip my movers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> You tip your movers after your job is completed. For example, you hired your movers to load your items, you pay them after they load your items. Another example is you hire your movers to clean your home, you pay them after they\u2019re done cleaning your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: Can I use a credit card to tip my Moving Help movers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A:<\/strong> Yes, you can pay your Moving Help moving labor providers with a credit card instead of cash. For example, if you forgot to get cash ahead of time to pay for your Service Providers, you can still tip them online. When you leave a review for them, you\u2019ll have a section that offers you the chance to tip them online with your credit card.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
