Do you tip your HHG movers?
H and I had this discussion for our last PCS, and he insists that you don't need to tip the packers and/or movers for a military move because everything is taken care of. Most of our military friends I have talked to say that they also don't tip, but I just wanted to ask more people with our upcoming move and H not being here for it.
I know that tipping is supposed to be based off quality of service performed, but just in general I'm wondering do you tip your packers and/or movers?
Re: Do you tip your HHG movers?
Yeah I thought of that for the last time and planned on getting subs. Their moving truck was blocking our cars last time and I asked them if they would want to move it and I would go get subs or just leave it and I would order pizza, so they picked pizza.
Thanks ladies! I really should have asked at the PPO office when I set up the move but I just wasn't even thinking about it at the time.
Don't tip. I didn't provide them full lunch since they changed the time they were coming on me 3 times and I couldn't plan between breakfast and lunch. I just laid out a few snack (ritz cheese crackers and chocolate chip cookies) and some coke.
My only advice is if you are going to give them lunch, I wouldn't do anything too greasy (like Pizza) if they are going to be unpacking your goods (curtains/clothes/sheets etc).
Now I don't have to feel guilty for forgetting to tip.
We did get pizza for the last people since they showed up at 1115, and I was hungry. From the way they devoured it, I'm thinking they were appreciative.
I wish I could go back 4 years ago and anti-tip the people who packed my furniture so terribly that it's all banged up and partially destroyed now.
