While tipping junk haulers is not required or expected, it is a greatly appreciated gesture for a job well done. Many junk removal companies state that tips are welcome but not mandatory. A good rule of thumb is to tip between 10% and 20% of the total bill, or a flat amount of $10 to $20 per worker. For exceptional service, a tip of $20 to $50 for the entire crew is also appropriate. It is often best to give cash directly to each worker at the end of the job.

Consider tipping if the crew:

• Goes above and beyond your expectations.

• Handles heavy, bulky items or navigates difficult spaces like tight hallways or stairs.

• Works in inclement weather or deals with potentially hazardous materials.

• Takes extra care to protect your home and property.

• Accommodates a last-minute scheduling change.
