Mailman - $30

We don't tip our garbage men.

Zero. I think it's ridiculous to tip them for a job they are already well paid to do.

We gave our mailman $20 and the garbage men $150. The garbage men always take everything we put out even if they aren't "suppose" to take it, so why not tip them for that? Just my opinion.

Nothing to my mailman after the incident with my passport documentshere's that saga

$50 to our sanitation guys and we tip them regularly throughout the year.
