We have single guy who comes by year round for grass/leaves/pruning. He gets $100 at the end of the year.

No, unless they did something above and beyond what they were contracted to do.

We always give them end of year bonuses.

I paid $1600 for a huge yard clean up and a ton of mulch. I got them lunch and a case of water. No extra tip. $1600 included the tip.

If you have a full time gardener and they live on your property then they should obviously receive the usual holiday bonuses.

Whoever your head servant is should be able to advise you on what is culturally expected, timing, and amounts.

It is very different in China than South Asia for example. When we had both Christian (Filipino) and Chinese help we tailored it to the individual, Christmas or Chinese New Year as appropriate for the main bonus.

If you are talking about somebody hired to come do a task for an agreed upon amount you just pay them the money and you are done.

When we had a lawn service come out and remove leaves, yes, I tipped them. We have a big lawn, it is not flat, and it took a couple of days. So I gave each person $50.

Yeah we have a normal crew and owner and they already charge a lot. But for a one-time crew I would probably tip.

Yes. Except the regular guy whose flat rate is already insane high. He works for himself. Owners don’t get tips.

We are getting leaves/gutters cleaned, plus just some tidying/trimming. It’ll be about $400. Would you tip, or is it unnecessary? If you do - how much?

Thank you.
