$20 each I think is typical. You don't get appliances that often.

Unless the delivery person goes above and beyond, no.

God stop tipping everyone. Servers/delivery at restaurants and no one else.

I’m one of the tippers above. I don’t tip handymen or other independent contractors bc usually all the $$ goes directly to them. It’s different for delivery/install.

No it's not. You just have no manners.

OP, yes I always tip those guys about $20-30 each. I also tip movers, cleaning people and repair people when they work on my house.

I agree with the above. I always give them a tip and offer them a drink and snack.

I always do. Generally 20-25/person depending on what I have on hand and how many show up. I am not wealthy but there’s a lot of precarity in these delivery jobs (they usually don’t get paid for days they don’t work) and the work is hard to do after a certain age.

I usually hand it to one and say “for both/all of you.”

I also offer water/bathroom.

Worth noting I recently had two counter guys who seemed unbelievably grateful for some snacks and drinks they could take on the road. I think they work really long days, with back-to-back orders, so don’t always have time to stop.

I already paid a pretty penny for their delivery and installation.

Three coming today: Fridge, range, dishwasher.

I have no cash on hand, so trying to figure if I need to run out and get some. Or if these guys are paid pretty well already.
