I tip my furniture delivery guys before they start the process, It comes with the "listen guys please be careful , dont scratch my walls, everything is brand new speech." Everyone we know that had movers got bent over , what ever they were quoted was not even close to what the final sum was. My brother in law , who is a regular Joe, went ape when they went from one house to the next (a few blocks away). They quoted him X and then they said it was X plus $1100
. I was regularly called upon for furniture moving in my old neighborhood, people switching apts. Not my type of work.
