Why do you need envelopes for bell services? :confused3 I know some use it for mousekeeping but I thought it was to make sure that the person who cleans the room knows that money is left for her. In the case of bell services, you just tip them when they provide the service.

I was just wondering because my family will not be there when they drop off our luggage from ME and so I was thinking we should leave a tip for whoever drops off our luggage.

While I'm sure an extra tip would be appreciated, it's not necessary. The Bell Services CM who delivers your DME luggage receives a "tip" from Disney. Disney does this because they realize that most guests won't be in their rooms when their DME luggage is delivered. Reportedly, this guaranteed tip is sought-after by Bell Services CMs because it's just that -- guaranteed. They don't have to wonder if they'll get tipped, or how much.

Seriously, save your money. The CM will already be tipped by Disney, you don't need to double-tip.

I'd like bell service envelopes, too.

Reason: When we drove to WDW a couple of years ago, I had an extra Mousekeeping envelope and gave it to our bellman. I just drew a line through the work "Mousekeeping." Our bellman was very impressed w/ the envelope. Apparently no one had ever gone to the trouble of making a special envelope for him before. I think he like the envelope more than the few dollars he got for a tip. Therefore, I would like to make a special envelope for bell services.
