One way is to tally all the moveStopped messages sent from your moving
objects.  You'll need to know all the objects that are moving and either:

1) if the last object to move will always arrive last at its destination,
you can test for this object only in a moveStopped handler

2) build a list of the moving objects and then check them off one at time as
they finish moving
