How much do you tip if you park a car in the DC downtown garage on a daily basis?

So when I go to retrieve my car, do I hand them the $ as they are heading out to get my car (to make them move faster?), or do I wait until they actually deliver the car to me?


Give them the money as you are getting into the car.

Standard is to tip when you get the car. $3-5 is about right. Especially if they bring it quickly. More ($10) if it is an event, long line, etc. and they are literally running to the spots to drive the cars up.

I would tip this regularly at the Four Seasons and Marriott Downtown Baltimore. I think that is standard.

If you're pulling up in a Tesla - tip $10.
