Tip Delivery Guys

[TheRatman]

I got a sofa set being delivered in morn and wondering whats a good tip for the guys delevry it and setting it up. I was 5$ a guy since its just a sofa set and not a recliner set, recliner set be 10$ a guy. Of course I will offer something to drink cause everyone that steps in my house gets a offer for something to drink. Just rudeness not to.

But I know Sherdog gotd some Big Willies on here who like to flash they cash and wondering how much yall tip delevery people. You know people that might deleiver you a sofa or fridge etc.

The couple times I've paid movers.. I'll give them $20 a person.. assuming they beat the estimated time and don't fuck anything up. Otherwise, it's less for sure.

I delivered furniture in college and we didn't expect anything to just bring in your furniture. If we moved something out or rearranged or had to bring in something from an upstairs window, yeah, we expected something. $5 per guy was a good tip. I don't think I ever got more than $10.

 

[ehtheist]

They're getting paid. No need for a tip.

 

[HARRISON_3]

If you're not sure, you can always tip in kisses.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

10 - 20 per guy. I have some harsh stairs to get furniture up or down.

 

[D Train]

Also, canned drinks are nice.

 

[Eyepokesftw]

No tip.

 

[D Train]

No tip.

Just the tip?

 

[Liquid Smoke]

I tell them to hold on while I ask sherdog what to do.

 

[Kraysla]

Just the tip?

Just for a second? To see how it feels?

 

[HereticBD]

$5?

They're going to come back and steal that shit, if that's all you tip. It ain't a pizza.

$20, cheapskate.

I was a mover for a summer once, and tips ranged from nothing, to extremely generous. My best days were a couple of times I received a $50 tip, and one time, a $100 tip. But if I got done with a 4hr job, and got $10 tip, I was happy. The point is you didn't count on them; it was a bonus.

The least I have tipped when expected too, was a nickle (waitress). The most when not expected was $300.00 (3 Movers who went above & beyond)

Most I've ever been tipped on serving one drink as a bartender $50

Most for a construction job $400.00

 

[Clippys Mom]

$5 bucks and a pop is fine seeing how you are not obligated to. That, and why tip anyone unless they do their job exceptionally well at the least, and more money if they go beyond.

Sometimes I tip people that never get tips, and if they say they can't except it, I'm out the door before they can give it back. Good fun.

I'll usually just give guys like that a joint. If they're doing that for a living it's a pretty safe bet that they smoke weed.

 

[Skip Reming]

tipping guys is gay if you ask me. i only tip hot women and just the tip at that

I never once had anyone offer me weed. I don't smoke anyway. Only a handful of times were we offered beer. I don't drink, but I'd take one anyway and give it to my partner. I didn't let them drink on the job though.

 

[Slippery Kantus]

When I do servicing in residential homes I honestly prefer something cold to drink over $5, but that's just me.

 

[CatchOmega]

I'm conflicted on tipping in these situations. I feel like if they've gone above and beyond, and are trying to do above the typical "dont give a shit" minimum, I'll feel like a tip can be in order. It's rare that I come across situations like that though.

I'm in other peoples homes everyday, and I'm paid very well to do so. Sometimes I'm there for 4-5 hours doing some downright rigorous work, and I absolutely never expect a tip. Some people do tip, but I usually try and refuse (never works though). But the ones that do are usually the types of people that recognize that I'm putting in full effort and treating their home like my own. I'd honestly be just as appreciative of them just appreciating that, without having to pay me.

The worst is when the person just straight up expects a tip when they didn't do anything above their minimum job requirements. Like the fucking guys in hotels that take your bag to your room, even after you tell them you'll do it yourself, and they stand there for like 30 awkward seconds expecting a hand out. The fuck outta here with that.
