Do You Tip Your Bin Men and Window Cleaner at Christmas??

Ask a Question

Over the years I have built up a good relationship with the local bin men and window cleaner. I normally buy them a box of sweets at Christmas. Recently there was a discussion about how much people tip them. Is this a thing? I thought buying them sweets was enough of a gesture…

No I've never tipped them, they are getting paid good money to start with, bin men refuse to take extra black bin liners, and window cleaner turns up when he feels like it

We don't have a window cleaner but always give our postie some money, not thought about the bin men but suppose there's also the milkman. I don't have papers delivered but my Mum used to always buy sweets for the paper girls and boys.
