Valet parking tip

[rgG]

My understanding is if you tip at drop off it is to get a better spot for your car so it can be retrieved more quickly at pick up.
My inlaws usually just tipped at pick up, unless they wanted to get the car quickly.
We usually went to valet restaurants with them.
I don’t like valet. I don’t like other people driving my car. I never have. Lol
Years ago, $5 was the norm. Fancy places now probably more like $10, but that’s a guess as I haven’t used valet in a while.
