How much to tip mail carrier

Tipping your mail carrier is not mandatory, but it's a nice gesture to show appreciation for their hard work and dedication. The amount you tip is up to you, but here are some general guidelines:

• For good service: $1 to $5 per month
• For exceptional service: $5 to $10 per month
• For a one-time delivery, such as a package: $1 to $5

You can tip your mail carrier in cash or by check, and you can also consider tipping during the holiday season, especially if they're working extra hours to deliver packages.

Some tips to keep in mind:

• If you're unsure about tipping, you can always ask your mail carrier if they accept tips or if they have a preferred method of receiving them.
• If you're tipping in cash, make sure to give it to your mail carrier in a sealed envelope or package to ensure they receive it safely.
• If you're tipping by check, make sure to make it payable to the mail carrier and include their name and address.

Remember, tipping is optional, and you should only do so if you feel that your mail carrier has provided good or exceptional service.
