Short answer: tipping movers is optional and is never part of your Legend Movers 4 You estimate. If you want to tip, base it on the work: how long the move took, stairs and heavy items, the heat, and how carefully your things were handled. Cash handed to each mover at the end of the job is the simplest way to do it.
Is tipping required?
No. Your written estimate covers the hourly labor (Starting at $165/hr for 2 movers, 2-hour minimum) and the packing materials you use. A tip is extra and up to you.
What to think about when deciding
- Length of the job: a 2-hour move and a full-day house move are different.
- Difficulty: walk-ups, long carries, a piano or a gun safe.
- Florida heat: summer moves are hard work outdoors.
- Care: furniture wrapped, floors protected, nothing rushed.
How to tip
Give it to each mover directly at the end of the job so everyone on the crew gets their share. If you prefer not to tip with cash, ask the crew lead what works.
Other ways to say thanks
Cold water and a place to take a short break go a long way on an Orlando move day. A review helps our crews too, and you can see what other customers said on our reviews page.
