Same reason why you tip your doorman if you live in a high-rise in Manhattan.


You're nuts. I never even heard of the driver being tipped a C note.

If movers do a good job and listens how your things should be handled, why not?

I always thought about tipping as something optional, only if you liked services that someone provided to you. From a taxi driver to a door man it's always a pleasure to see their smile when you give some extra dollars. Of course not everyone is pleasant and some people may thing that it's an obligation for costumer to give tips and that thing I don't like, it's rude. Of course I'm trying always to tip everybody gives me some services. But to approach to movers theme, last time I had moved I was helped by movers melbourne to sydney and I remained pretty satisfied of their work so I tipped them around $50, because i had a lot of weighty stuff.
