the default balancer should already handle moving the tablets across all servers.
Check the master's debug log to see if there are messages about trouble with balancing. For example, if there are unhosted tablets then the master won't rebalance tablets. If you have one or more offline tables, you might be hitting ACCUMULO-2694[1]. The fix for that issue is still in progress, but the workarounds listed should be something you can do on 1.5 right now.
