how much to tip the movers?

HardDrive's thread about tipping got me wondering...

At the end of this month, we're moving my parents across town from a 2-bedroom apartment to a nicer 2-bedroom apartment. The moving company said this will be about a 6-hour move @ $80/hour, so about $480 total. Could be a little more, could be a little less.

This is a small local company, only been in business for two years, and they've already won a "best of" local award for customer satisfaction. The owner of the company is one of the two guys who do the moving, and he is a long-time family friend of my girlfriend's family.

Considering all that, and assuming they do a good job for my parents, how much do we tip them? I'm thinking $ 30 each + a supersized chilled bottle of water for each of them, but I'm not sure.

I'll be transporting the guns and liquor.
