Are you supposed to tip furniture delivery guys?
 

Im getting a 2 peice sectional delivered tomorrow. Am I expected to tip them or no? They get paid by the hour, I don't know if they expect a tip too. And how much

of course..then again im ghetto so I drop them some ganja :)

Talk about "payment in KIND" :thumbsup

Yes, you are.

Tip them nicely and they will even put it in the right spot for you and drag the old furniture off. :)

Drop them a $20. :)

give em a few beers :)

if it is a fast and easy delivery - $20
if it is a pain in the ass toss them some more cash

Tip them in advance, otherwise your coffee table's going to loose a leg or two.

i tip anyone who's doing some sort of service for me, i even tip the cats at jiffy lube when they pull up, the mobby :)

My tip is usually a piece of advice like

"Just think if you studied in school as a kid, you would probably own the company" Hope it was worth it. Don't scratch any walls.

I'm sure that goes over well!

I've tipped movers before.. but never delivery people.

:1orglaugh

Flip them a 10 spot..

i had a couch delivered. Took 3 guys to get it in here. I gave them a 20 each and they were happy.

Advice is always beats $$$......dancers sometimes beg for tips at the ghetto strip clubs I frequent....would you like to tip me for my dance?

I usually tell 'em...here?s a tip......if I thought you were worthy of a tip I would have already done that......but here is another tip....work at a better club where you don?t have to beg the customers.

u could tip them, but dont tip em too hard; they might fall down when they still got your furniture in their hands.

Yes :2 cents:

Yes its always nice to tip the delivery drivers. A lot of the time they will set everything up for you as well.

Tip them only if the take the old one away.
I had to plead with the fat lazy bastard and his mate! And the store even promisted theyed take the old one away.
Fuck, Id payed for this

give them a few trial passwords...they will be more than happy - :thumbsup

(and a few cold bud lights never hurt :winkwink: )

AHAHAHHA!
Best one of the day!

don't be cheap give'em a 100 bucks.

You don't have to, only if you want.

That's why you pay the delivery fees. :)

$20 is decent. They'll deliver about 100 couches a day and make out about 30-40% of the time.

Yes so they'll give you better service.

i dont, only reason why i tip pizza drivers is because they usually have to pay for their gas, car and they dont make much as it is already.

When we had a new sectional sofa delivered here a couple months ago, I decided that I wasn't going to tip them. I really didn't even know if society deemed furniture delivery guys 'tip worthy'.

The delivery guys show up and bring the sofa in, then the main guy looks at me expectantly. I reached out and shook his hand and thanked him up and down, but he didn't even say a word. He just walked out the door.

I felt bad, especially since I always overtip whenever we go out. My advice to you would to slip the delivery guys a $20, or at least $10.

Yeah, i'll give them a $10. I think that's reasonable.

I only tip people who deliver food, and I tip them VERY well after hearing news stories about delivery guys jacking off and spitting in food of people who do not tip.

i make it sure to always give TIPS to any delivery service guys, coz i felt that it's the only extra source of money they would have from

this is so wierd...we are getting a new couch tomorrow too...a 2 piece sectional also

how wierd

They already dropped off the furniture. What kind of service are you getting from your furniture guys? Maybe I don't want to know...

You know... the whole tipping thing is getting out of hand. You're "supposed" to tip for EVERYTHING now.

Getting your hair cut. Why?! I just paid you the set fee and now you want more? Just charge more to begin with!

Getting a lap dance. Back off bitch! I just gave you $20 to shake your ass for 3 minutes during a God awful song. Of course, this is after you fed me bull shit for 5 minutes about how cute I am. Listen, I have a mirror, I know you're lying!

Taking a cab. You do the same damn job every other Russian is, why should I give you an extra $5? You should be happy I didn't call you a prick and tell you to fuck off for smashing my face into the window while zipping around the exit ramp.

And now delivery guys? I just paid $50-100 to have my piece of furniture delivered, now I need to pay extra just to get it in one piece? We're rewarding these people for the WRONG behavior. We need to dig up Pavlov.

I always tip the grocery delivery guys really well.
I dont want them picking their nose and wiping it on my broccoli and being known as "that fucking cheap guy".

My grocery store doesn't allow tipping. And the employees are very strict about it. Thank God!

I pay you to do a service. You do the service.

I agree, its nuts now, Fucking cashiers have tip jars next their register. They wantme to tip them for ringing up doughnut for me? Ridiculous

I do it... hey if I tip the pizza dude. I better tip someone who delivers furniture that is couple hundred pounds.

difference being pizza drivers dont get a high wage, where as furniture deliverers do.

They dont have to use their own personal cars either, and being a pizza delivery guy is one of the most dangerous jobs you can have.
