Tipping Question re: luggage

[DisneyMomx7]

DH had a question regarding how much you tip for luggage. We always tip the person who brings our luggage to our room $20. How much do you tip the person who takes your luggage when you check into the hotel (from your care, limo or town car service)? Thanks

My Disney guide book says $1 per bag. But of course I say do as you like.

I think my husband tipped Bell services 5-10 when we stored our bags with them for a couple of hours...we only had one bag.

Can I deliver your bags for you on your next trip for the $20 tip?

In all seriousness, I have read in several places that one dollar per bag is a fair tipping rate. Have a great trip!

I tip $1 per bag, unless it's really heavy and then I tip $2 for each heavy bag. Then I add one more dollar to the total.

So if I have two average bags and one heavy bag, I'd tip $5. $1 for each average bag, $2 for the heavy one, and then one extra dollar.

We too tip $20 to take our luggage to our room. We also tip the guy that takes it out of the town car $5-7 too.

Well, I guess if you have 20 bags, then your right on par, if not, your a good tipper!!! Nothing wrong with that!!! I usually have 3 bags and tip $5. It kinda stinks haveing to tip the guys at the towncar to put it on a cart and roll it to storage, but ya have too. I usually give a dollar a bag to them and a bit more when it gets to the room.

We tip

Limo driver $10 each way
Storage Bell - $5
Bell to room - $20
Airport Bell - $5-10 depending on how many bags.

Standard $1/bag

We did $1 a bag, but DH felt like one bellman looked at him like, 'this is it??'. (The rest were just fine.) Maybe he was expecting that $20??!!??

I usually tip $5.00. It only takes about 10 minutes to bring it up (round trip). I also tip the person who takes it out of the car and valet parks $5.00.

We do have quite a few bags - probably 10 including the carry ons. DH doesn't mind tipping the bellman who brings your bags to your room $20 but he thinks that the one who takes it to the cart from the towncar should only get about $5. Does that sound right?

huh ? i think, maybe i should be a bell-to-room dude, i mean, if i work for say 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, i could get something like 2500-3000 dollars in tips + salary from Disney.

Now thats a nice pay for transporting luggage, nice and easy money !!

We usually have 3 suitcases and a case of water. No 20 bags here! I tip $20 because with my bad back I am most appreciative for the help.
