To avoid the main upload directory getting too cluttered, I changed the field settings to use sub-directories. 

This seems to apply to new uploads, but what is the best method to move existing files as well?

The File (Field) Paths module should be able to move existing files. I've not tested it, but the module description says:

  • Retroactive updates - rename and/or move previously uploaded files.
