If you google "tipping movers", the number that most commonly comes up is 15% of the total bill - and it's typically posted on moving company sites. :) This page on tipping (http://www.itipping.com/tip-moving-company.htm), however, says that 5% of the total bill is sufficient.

Honestly, that sounds really low to me - it's NYC, you have a narrow-ish staircase, and moving is hard work. I'd follow the higher suggestions made here and offer at least $30 or $35 per guy.

Good luck with tomorrow!
