I'd prefer to have the moving company pay the movers a living wage such that a tip would be unnecessary and politely refused.
Clearly, you have no idea of how the moving industry works. Everybody's a contractor of a contractor of a franchisee. The person who picks up your stuff is not always the person who delivers it.
When I move (frequently), I make sure to tip each person packing my stuff $50, each person loading my stuff $50, and the driver $100 for < 1,000 miles, or $200 > 2,000 miles.
Lifting and carrying and handling other people's prized possessions isn't an easy job. This is how I show appreciation when the job is done well.

It's really no answer to say I need to understand how each industry works.
Why would I? And why should I? It's the government's responsibility to understand the nuances of, and regulate, each industry.
Do we really want to live in a world where consumers need to understand the detail of how each industry operates so they can ensure sub-sub contractors can be remunerated appropriately?
