Factors To Consider
When determining if you should tip your tow driver, you need to take into consideration the factors surrounding the situation that you are in and how they responded to that situation.
Timeliness
To start with, you need to take into consideration timeliness. When you called the tow truck company, how long did they say it would take them to get a driver out to you? How busy did they say they were? Based on the information they provided you with when you called for assistance, did the driver show up on time? If the driver showed up on time, called you to tell you that they were on their way, or keep you informed if they were running late, all of those factors would go under the “Yes” column for a tip.

If they changed out a flat tire for you, did they do it in a timely manner and did they complete the job? If your vehicle was stuck somewhere, did they exercise caution with moving your vehicle? Pay attention to how quickly they do their job, and the quality of work that they performed. If they performed their job quickly, while doing their best to take care of your vehicle, those factors would also go under the “Yes” column for a tip.
