Yes. The general rule is that anybody who delivers something to your home gets a tip (not counting package delivery people like UPS or FedEx). The size of the tip depends on the weight of the object they are bringing, as well as its relative unwieldiness.

The general rule for tipping is 20% nowadays. Some people still tip only 15%, but that figure is really pretty outdated, especially in major cities like New York or L.A., where everything tends to be more expensive. I worked in the restaurant industry for a few years, and I can say honestly that a 15% tip for excellent service is considered a bit cheap.

There is a bit of wiggle room: for example, if someone delivers $25 worth of food to my apartment, I'll tip them 20%, which is $5. But if they deliver $50 worth of food to my house, I'm not giving them $10. They get maybe $6 or $7.

If it's a relatively small appliance like a microwave, then I'd tip them $10. If it's something huge and heavy like a washing machine, I'd give them $15 to $20 each (there will probably be more than one delivery guy for a washing machine).

What should I do if my new appliance is missing parts?

Call the manufacturer of the appliance, you should be able to find a toll-free number in the paperwork, and let them know. Have the information handy about the specific part and they will send it right out. Typically, retailers would rather you take this route instead of returning the item. You should contact that manufacturer of the appliance. Most owner's manuals will tell you to contact the manufacturer rather than the company you purchased the appliance from.

How to Apply for an Appliance Rebate?

If you bought an appliance and it came with a rebate, you will need to mail the rebate forms into the company in order to get your refund. You should check the forms because sometimes you can enter the information online. Be sure to make a copy of the receipt and the rebate form before you mail the rebate back into the company. You should expect to receive your rebate in the mail about six to eight weeks after you mail in the forms. Appliance rebates are a great way to get additional savings on a new appliance.

Will steaming prefinished hardwood floor lonngg indent damage caused by TRUCKING SERVICE of APPLIANCE STORE moving kitchen appliances into a new custom kitchen pop the dented wood back into shape?

You can't really "pop" wood back into shape. Usually deep grooves will have to be replaced with new slats, then the new wood is filled, sanded and stained to match and a finish is applied. If it is pre-finished, you probably just have to fill with a matching putty. I would go after the appliance delivery people if it hasn't been too long. They should have insurance, or maybe your homeowner's insurance can help. I haven't ever heard of "steaming" wood floors, but I would be careful. Water and wood don't play well together.


Find Used Parts For Your Appliance?

If you have an appliance that needs to be fixed, don�t buy a new one; just find the parts for it. Appliance parts are sold at most home repair stores and they are much cheaper than replacing the entire appliance. There are some stores that have appliance parts that are used, saving you money that would be spent on a new part. If at all possible, get a warranty on the appliance part you buy so if it doesn�t wok you can return it.
