My building has a $100 move-in fee as well as a $100 move-out fee.
This is fairly common, though if you can avoid paying it, good luck.
Keep in mind (like others have said) the money covers the wear and tear of moving, booking of elevators, etc...
You have to remember, 95% of fuckwits out there mark/ding the shit out of the walls and common property, while moving in or out. Your new building probably introduced this fee, because it was tried of spending money out of the budget to fix peoples mistakes. No one wants to live in a building that looks beat to shit.
Though it sucks, at least if you get stuck paying it, you know it's going to a cause that's there to keep your home looking as good as it can.
