Was it a long distance move?
Chances are if movers are picking your belongings up and the moving company
has to cross state-lines to drop off your things, it’s most likely going to be
a different set of movers dropping your things off. This means, and is socially
implied that, you tip the movers making the pick-up and as well as the
movers making the drop-off. It seems costly but the movers will remember what
kind of a person you were and may put some extra effort in your move.
Were there stair cases involved in your move?
Some moving companies take stair cases into consideration while doing your
initial moving quote. However, some don’t, find out if the moving company you
selected added fees into your estimate because of the stair cases. Should you
tip if stair cases haven’t been added? $20 for each mover is still substantial.
How many movers arrived to perform your relocation?
Sometimes moving
companies are shorthanded and can only provide you with
two or three movers for your job. If that is the case, it would be kind of you
to provide these movers with a little bit extra funds and possibly a pizza pie
to replace those calories the gentlemen burned off lugging your couches around,
depending how big your move is of course.
All moves vary, whatever the case may be, take into consideration how the movers
performed, their demeanor, and any other topic you feel is relevant. Try not to
come into your moving day with preconceived notions. The moving company may
have been superb with their customer service and their in-home estimates but
things change very quickly. Treat the people who are going to help move you as
if you just met them for the first time. All moving companies are different,
and the moving company’s movers do not always possess the same disposition as
their customer service counterparts.
