Didn't even occur to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059191 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 23:14:23 +0000 PrincessBaby 2059191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only furniture I've ever had delivered was from Pottery Barn/PBK (this ends up being the only place I buy furniture from!) and they charge exorbitant shipping and "White Glove Delivery" fees. So I don't tip because I've already shelled out a fortune just to have it delivered. If I was having furniture delivered from a local store where delivery was free or really inexpensive, then I would. But for instance, when all was said and done for my daughter's Big Girl Furniture delivery, it cost me over a couple of hundred in delivery so I thought that was a'plenty;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059166 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 22:40:46 +0000 Madison43 2059166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, always. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059154 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 22:22:01 +0000 spaniellove 2059154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually tip. It's never clear to me how much is appropriate, but it just seems right to do it. They always place the furniture where it'll live and take away the trash, so I'm not left with any work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059153 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 22:21:01 +0000 yoursilverlining 2059153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I always tip for delivery, especially if they set it up/assemble. Usually $10-$20 a guy, depending on what was ordered and what was done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059142 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 22:10:58 +0000 sunny 2059142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No I don't unless they do something extra like help move other furniture out of the way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059138 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 22:03:18 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2059138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. 2/3 times we've had furniture delivered our walls have been scuffed. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059133 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 22:01:04 +0000 sarac 2059133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059132 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 21:58:32 +0000 Bao 2059132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059130 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 21:56:00 +0000 matador84 2059130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. We've had people deliver furniture twice, and they definitely didn't go above and beyond in any way that I would feel the need to give them a tip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-furniture-delivery-people#post-2059126 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 21:52:22 +0000 Torchwood 2059126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never have.

We are having a table and chairs delivered on Tuesday and they are assembling it for us. We paid for the delivery, so wasn't sure if we are supposed to tip on top of it...anyone know? </p>
