Tip for grocery delivery?

One more.  We just signed up for Farmhouse Delivery and we get our first box tomorrow.  Am I supposed to tip the deliver driver?  How much is appropriate?  It's $39 every 2 weeks if I'm supposed to tip a % or something.

Now that I think about it, I feel cheap. I tip our Greenling delivery person $3/week. Our order amount is about the same as yours. But I think drivers get paid more base pay than wait staff, so that's my rationale. If everyone else thinks I'm cheap though, I'll up it next week. We tip really well elsewhere

So, what if you work all the time and never see the delivery man?  How do you tip them?

I do it as part of the order. There is a place for the tip when you order online. I'm never home to get our box.

Ours has a spot for that too.  DH hates to tip before the service is performed though.
