Boca Raton, Florida resident Curtis Hennigar is an avid traveler and successful entrepreneur. Curtis Hennigar is the owner of the valet parking company, CAH Palm Beach, which he founded in 1982.
Valet parking broadly refers to any service that provides parking for clients, rather than self-parking. Valet services, which are often found at upscale restaurants and hotels among other businesses, sometimes requires customers to pay a fee. In other cases, valet parking is provided by an establishment to customers free of charge.
In either case, it is considered common courtesy to tip valet drivers for the service they provide. The amount of the tip itself varies widely, anywhere between $2 and $10. However, the tip should reflect the quality of the service and the vehicle itself. For example, parking a luxury vehicle may return a higher tip compared to an economy car. In addition, tips may be provided to the valet who parks the vehicle as well as the valet who brings the vehicle back if they are different people. In the case of bad service, a lower tip is called for but no tip at all is very uncommon.
