If the tip is not already included in the price, we tip generally $10 to WDW and $20 to Port Canaveral. We use Happy Limo's towncar, so I know they make grocery stops. I think that's pretty standard for towncar services.

I have never used one of these services before but I would imagine that the standard 15-20% tip would be in order.

I tip $10 on the way to WDW with a grocery stop, and at least $5 on the way back to the airport. I give more when we need a van for a larger group of people, or if the grocery stop takes more than 10-15 minutes. I never tip less than $15 total r/t, and went up to $30 r/t when we had a group of seven which included two young kids and a long grocery stop.

I just realized after Ducklite's detail response that I should have given more detail in mine (previously posted as Inkkognito...I'm on my hubby's PC now). We are a party of two, and the $10 for WDW is for one way (same for the $20...one way to the Disney ship at Port Canaveral).

When I used Mears, I tipped the driver $1 per bag for his loading and unloading. I have usually gone a limited budget and mostly by myself so Mears was fine with me. I have not had any problem with them with my bags like I have read elsewhere here.
