Facts About Car Washing
 
  • Car washes protect your investment
    Maintenance goes beyond oil changes and tune-ups. Keeping a car clean is essential - and not just for cosmetic reasons. If a vehicle isn't kept clean on a regular basis, it will be de-valued at the time of trade-in or resale. According to auto trade-in experts such as Kelley Blue Book, cars in excellent mechanical condition and appearance can be valued as much as $1,500 higher than those in good or fair condition.

  • Professional car washing is environmentally friendly
    Professional washes can use up to 50 percent less water that at-home washes, thanks to conservation methods. Furthermore, professional car washes are mandated to pipe dirty water to treatment facilities or into state-approved drainage facilities. Quite the opposite, at-home car washes pollute the environment as soap and road grime (oil, tar, dirt) end up in storm sewers that flow into lakes, streams and rivers.

  • Professional car washing saves time
    A professional car wash requires only 5-8 minutes on average, compared to 45 to 60 minutes when done at home.
