How do you offer them cold drinks? Chances are you either dont have a fridge, your old fridge is broken, or your old fridge is unplugged and moved so they can put your new fridge in place.

I have always had two fridges, but not everybody does.

I think you should read the whole thread before replying.

$10 + a beer.

If they had to take your door off it's hinges or go up flights of stairs, add more $.

Hey, just like the pizza delivery guy. Thanks for the advice!!

Why should you tip anyone for doing their job

...unless of course tips are part of their job (i.e. waitress, waiter, etc.)

 

[Maximus96]

a heart-felt 'thanks' is sufficient.

WTF? I would have told them if their job doesn't pay enough for them to eat, maybe they should try getting an education and getting a different job. Then I would have been on the phone with their boss complaining about what assholes they were.

LOL - no kidding.

$20, but that's Cdn, and it's prob. about $10 USD

A beer or a jelly donut.

Nada....I just spent a grand and $40 to have it delivered. I will tip movers if they do an excellent job, but not delivery guys (well, I do tip the pizza guys).

 

[EyeMWing]

$0+ice-kept beverage if it just went through the door and into the kitchen.
$10+ice-kept beverage if it involved stairs or removal of doors or moving other furniture.

Add an additional $10 if head index is above 90.

I very rarely got tipped when I deliverd appliances for a summer.

0 is just weak. I used to be a mover and most people would give u 5-10 bucks. And there were more of us then to deliver a fridge. I would go with $10 each

Is it her fault that they spent all their money from their last paycheck on booze or drugs?

They should have packed a lunch with an icepack, its much more efficient if they are worried about money.

You guys are all a bunch of cheap bastards, thats all.

I don't deliver, but my two room mates both do. They came home the other day with a 50$ tip each, they get tipped a lot but this thread speaks volumes. Its almost the exact ratio, since for every 20-25 homes, they get tipped about half the time

$0, what are they going to do? Spit on your next fridge delivery you're going to order next week?

All that because some guy observed he and his workmate would not have time to stop for lunch on that particular day?

You sir, are an asshole.
