Should you always tip your driver?

59 views

Tipping delivery drivers is customary, though not always mandatory. A small tip shows appreciation for prompt, courteous service, especially for extra effort. While not required, it's a common practice reflecting gratitude for convenience and timely delivery. Consider the driver's effort and your satisfaction when deciding.

Is tipping your driver always necessary?

Ugh, tipping delivery drivers… it’s a whole mess, right? I mean, I remember once, last July in San Diego, my pizza was an hour late, cold, and the box was crushed. Zero tip.

My personal rule? Good service, a couple of bucks extra. Seriously though, five bucks feels okay for decent service. Anything less feels stingy, more feels excessive.

I saw this thread on Reddit – people debating this endlessly. Some were like, “Always tip!” Others, “Only if they go above and beyond.” So confusing!

Honestly, it depends. If the driver battles traffic, delivers quickly, and is super nice… a tip’s a must. But if they’re rude or late? Nope.

Remember that time, December 2022? My groceries arrived, a full twenty minutes early, perfectly organized. I slipped the driver a tenner, easily.

It’s not about a set rule. It’s about showing appreciation for good service. And everyone’s definition of “good” varies wildly. I guess.
