Re: Do you tip furniture delivery people?

we usually do and base the amount on what we got delivered, if they put it together. yesterday we had a mattress delivered and we gave them 7 each since they basically just carried it in the house and thats what we had on us.

Re: Do you tip furniture delivery people?

Yes. Depends how many guys and how much they have to do. Usually I give them around $10 each - more if they are doing alot - less if they don't have much of anything to do.
