How It Works

You Own It.
It Runs Itself.

A self-serve car wash is the closest thing to a vending machine for cars. The customer does all the work. You just maintain the equipment and collect the money.

Step 01
Customer Pulls In
Customer drives into the bay. They insert coins or tap card at the machine. Timer starts. No staff needed at any point.
Step 02
They Wash Their Car
They pick their setting — rinse, soap, foam, wax, rinse. They do all the work themselves with the wand and foam brush we provide.
Step 03
They Leave
Timer runs out, customer leaves happy with a clean car. Bay is ready for the next customer. Average transaction is $4-8 and takes 2-4 minutes.
Step 04
You Collect Revenue
At the end of the day you collect the cash from the machines, check the card terminal, and deposit it. The machines run whether you're there or not.
