Bought some furniture, how much do you tip the delivery guys?
 
Question in the title, how much is a proper tip for a bed and a couch? They will come tomorrow. Thanks

I hate having to tip people for doing their job. My guess would be $10 if it's a straight shot and $20 if there are stairs. Give the money to the head guy and it's his problem about how to share it.

Nothing. Ive never tipped a furniture delivery guy.

Mr. Flopnuts 11-11-2009 07:25 PM

Yeah, I'd tip $10 if it's level and $20 if they need to climb stairs.

Bugeater 11-11-2009 07:26 PM

Unless they somehow went above and beyond their normal duties I wouldn't tip them anything.

KCChiefsMan 11-11-2009 07:27 PM

no stairs, I'll just give them $10. Thanks guys

NOT A DIME ITS THEIR JOB.. IF THEY DON"T WANT TO MOVE FURNITURE GET A DIFFERENT JOB

I worked in the warehouse for a furniture company about 30 years ago, and most never tip the delivery worker.

I would suggest about 20 bucks.

The guys making the delivery work a hell of a lot harder than someone bringing pizza to your door, and don't really make a lot more than the pizza delivery driver.

Deberg_1990 11-11-2009 07:28 PM

These guys make more than minimum wage. Its not like a waiter or waitress..

You don't have a ****ing clue.

Most are always looking for a different job.

And they work a hell of a lot harder than a waiter or waitress.

Yet, because of tips, wait people, depending on the place, make pretty decent jack.

Yet, you'll tip a pizza delivery driver.

Why the hell would you tip a furniture mover?

Not everyone does, back when I did it at least 50% of the customers did not tip.

DaKCMan AP 11-11-2009 07:35 PM

If the store charges for delivery, I don't tip. If delivery is free then I tip $10-$20.
