Moving Etiquette
November 09, 2009, 7:09 AM /
Be kind to your movers for their sake and yours.
• Providing lunch is not just a nice thing to do for your moving crew, it also saves you time and money. A few pizzas and some cold drinks can mean the difference between a 15- minute chow break and an hour-long disappearance for fast-food.
• A pot of coffee does the same trick—keeping everybody happy and on site.
• Tipping is customary, with $20 per mover a good starting point. Give the full amount to whoever is in charge and ask that person to divide the tips evenly among the crew.
• Fantastic service under difficult conditions—lots of heavy stuff, winding stairs, bad weather— may justify a higher tip.
