How much did you tip your nursery furniture delivery team?

Our nursery furniture is coming today between 11:00 and 3:00!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I'm so excited!

It's coming from Behr's and they will assemle what needs to be assembled out of a crib, tall chest and dresser with changing table top. I'm in a split and they're going up two short staircases which are not at all hard to maneuver (no handrails yet).

Please share how much you tipped the group? Sometimes I'm so bad at tipping! I either give too much or too little!!! Chat Icon

TIA! Chat Icon

ETA: It's raining cats and dogs today (for those of you not on LI) if that makes a difference.

Oh geez... I ordered it at like 22 weeks or so and it came in about 7 weeks. They've just been waiting for us to be ready for delivery! We're actually still not... we decided to hire someone to do the wallpaper so we can finish other projects but I want the furniture here so I can wash and set up and he can paper around the furniture. Since we were so last minute the soonest he can come is the week of the 27th! I'm due 4th of July!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon But the baby will be with us for a while anyway. I just want the room set up already!

I totally understand, we had everything painted and now I am sitting patiently waiting for the furniture so that I can figure out what we want to put on the walls! I ordered on April 4th!

We had two bedroom sets delivered the other day and we tipped the 2 guys $100 (it was raining too). I think I would tip $50 if they have a lot to assemble.

Totally glad I did not wait! The three pieces are bigger than I thought they'd be so my original layout may not work best. I have to have DH remove a hope chest that I thought would be able to stay in the room so I can fit my rocking chair in there and still have room for other things like a bookcase.

I love it though! Cannot wait to get the room all finished!

Thanks for the tip info girls! I gave the two guys $20. They were here for about 15-20 minutes tops. The crib went together in minutes. The changer top was just screwed on and it was not raining by the time they got here.
