Tipping Long Distance Movers: Before or After?

When it comes to tipping long-distance movers, it is customary to reward them for their service. The tip is usually 15-20% of the total cost of the move, and it should be divided between both moving teams. It is best to tip after the job is completed, as this ensures that the movers have done their job properly. Cash tips are an appropriate way to show your appreciation, but some people like to find creative ways to thank their moving companies.

If you are hiring long-distance movers, be sure to tip them accordingly, as this job requires a lot of planning and attention to detail. Tipping each moving company individually will ensure that your money reaches its intended recipient immediately after the job is completed. If you are comfortable giving more tips and think your moving agents did an exceptional job, then you can definitely tip above the recommended amounts. When it comes to tipping long-distance movers, it is important to remember that you are under no obligation to reward them if they haven't done their job as real moving professionals.

If any incidents occur during the move, you should adjust the amount you tip your moving agents accordingly. If your moving agents try to haggle with you for the tip at the end of your move, contact your moving company directly to mediate and don't feel intimidated to meet their demands at the end of a stressful day. It is also important to make sure that you have water on hand for those who move in case they are thirsty on moving day. Some moving companies include the cost of packing supplies in their price, so be sure to ask about that option. Tipping long-distance movers is a great way to show your appreciation for their hard work and dedication. Make sure you divide the total cost of the move in two and calculate the tip based on that.

If you think your moving agents did an exceptional job, then you can definitely tip above the recommended amounts.
