I just had my HHG packed today. We always provide drinks and buy lunch for the people packing and moving our goods. What do you do if anything? Do you tip, buy food, or do you do anything at all?

As the movers just delivered my HHG on Monday, I provided them a Hawaiian Feast and some Aloha drinks. They weren't expecting it and had to make a couple of guys eat because the weren't use to getting food and drinks for moving. I'm thinking the locals here in Hawaii don't do that kind of stuff for the movers and packers.

When we have PCSd, I've typically given the packers / movers with sodas, water, sandwiches or pizzas to ensure they take a little extra care while doing the job. I think we may have given the guys in Germany a beer... after they finished the job, haha.
