Take Out Service Charge- Looking for feedback

Ashes
Soup II

Hey all!

We are going to add a service charge for take-out orders to help offset the cost of supplies.  We are weighing our options, not sure if we should do a fixed percent or amount. Curious if others have implemented this or have ideas on what the standard is. We do a lot of Togo orders and due to our menu items, it takes several containers for 1 meal to not diminish the quality, when you factor in the cost of condiments, silverware, napkins and bags it adds up quickly. 

Appreciate any feedback!

I would say build it into your price. Service charge is more like a fee for additional services provided to your guests.
