Tipping movers?

[Cooter]

I tip everybody because I'm not a cheap-assed curmudgeon.

three guys = $20/ea

what goes around, comes around

I bet he doesn't tip pizza drivers because there is a delivery fee.

Do you know how much money you can make delivering pizza?!

I had a company do a shitty job, talk on their cell phones half the time, and were noticeably slow to the point of adding an unnecessary hour to the whole deal, and I tipped them nothing.

This. I tip if they finish when they are supposed to. Try Black Tie Moving if you need a reputable crew.

Fuck, I didnt know you're supposed to tip movers. The last time I tried they wouldn't accept my money, so I just assumed all movers were the same.

That was probably just that company's policy..

If someone is doing something you should could do, but don't feel like it, a tip should be considered.

Breakfast, lunch, Gatorade, $20 each.

Last fall I paid $85 an hour for 3 guys. I tipped $100 for the 4 of them to split.

This has always been a tough a call for me as well. I love to tip after a job well done but I won't notice the quality of the move until after they're long gone.

Example: When we moved into Farmers Market we used a highly recommended mover. It was great. I even acted as the 4th mover. Everyone received $10 or $20 I can't remember.

A year later we moved into our first home. I called the same company. This time I wasn't able to be there. I wasn't worried about it since I know what kind of service they provide. Gave they guys $20 each upfront, the key to both places and left. I found nicks and scratches everywhere after that move.

I have always tipped $20 each to movers.

Last time I moved I gave the guys a 20 spot each.

I did the same.

But I pretty much tip everybody, including the guys that installed my AC/furnace. After spending 12 hours in my cramped attic, yes they deserved it.
