Do you tip your lawn company, garage carrier, the individual building your residence? I really hope not, service market doesn't indicate tipping industry. Don't neglect to tip each staff as well, packers will usually not be the same staff that moves you, and so on . Say the regional step costs $1000 and also the staff is 4 people, I would recommend $25 -$ 50 per person ($ 50 if it is difficult or in poor weather). When I was a moving company in my previous life I directly obtained $300 for myself as well as 2 various other people for a days worth of job, however that was for a hard move in the snow.
