Tipping removal men

[cherrypiesally]

Hi.
We are moving tomorrow; do we tip the removal men? If so how much/ beer? Can't remember what we did last time as it was so long ago.
We are in SE London if that helps.
TIA

It would certainly be appreciated. Establish which one's in charge and give him what you can afford according to how helpful they've been. If it's just a couple of ££s for each man you could say something like "have a pint on me". If they've been good and you can afford a more generous gesture I'd suggest £10 per man.

Hope your move goes well!

We tipped £20 overall, so £10 each for our recent local move. For our much more long distance relocation move we rounded the price to £1000, so about £40 tip I think. If they do a good job, tip. If not, don't.

I gave £20 between 2. They worked really, really hard and were nice.

£10 each man, so £50. They deserved it.

£10 per man - just added it in with the bill (cash) but said it front of all 3 as in 'thanks so much - I've stuck an extra £30 in' so the gaffer knew to share. I also kept them stocked with brews / cans of pop and invited them to share the ridiculously huge pile of butties i'd made the night before with us!

We gave the foreman (of 3) £20 and told him to buy a couple of drinks for his team.
