Tip removal company?

I always understood it should be “ folding money” for removal men and that was years ago when a typical tip for anyone else might be 50p. I’ve moved three times in the last 40 years, taking two days each time.. Each time the guys did a fantastic job and DH tipped well, but I’ve no idea how much.0

We tipped ours last year, just a few notes in a card to get a drink or two each (£50). I really don't tip anyone else other than at a restaurant. I just think the nature of the job is worth a tip if they do it well. Ours were just lovely all round.0

It's for the birds.Rob5342 said:I'm with Mr. Pink on this. Im happy to pay for a good job and I'll always honour what I agreed but I never tip anyone. I pay the employer to provide a service and it's the employers responsibility to look after their employees not mine. Why dont the removal men give you a tip as a thank you for giving them some work?
When I moved a couple of years ago I didn't even think about tipping. My view of tipping changed when the min wage came about.
