I am thinking the meter box in your pic has been updated with Etowah valley components, at least the card reader is what Jim sold. Looks exactly like what I had at a wash.

Omg, Just flagged incoming water and sewer lines today. $1500 for water and $50 a foot for sewer. Town cost shares water and sewer for new businesses but we are responsible for repairing concrete on street where sewer connects.

Yes, steel stud walls,vinyl siding and standard pitched roof. Concrete will cost close to 70k.

Location has a huge effect on costs to build. My son is in the middle of a new build. 1 inbay and 1 self service. Total cost will be under 500K. I will post some pics as we go. I will add that we are doing parts of it ourselves to save costs.

Yes but the screen choices area gets smaller. 4,7,10,15. Would not be afraid to go 5,10,15,20.

I had count up for years, went to 4 price selections on my Nayax for customers to choose the $ amount and time they want. I wouldn't go back. I offer more (bonus) time as they choose a higher price. No more calls telling me they forgot to turn to stop and received a max charge.

Just talked with a customer that is going to switch to 3 wash choices. $12, $15, and $20. Has had $10, $12, and $15 with good results.

I like the in bay touchless. No employee problems, plenty of business and profit, and no bogus damage claims. As for self service there is still a good market in my area for it. Just installed a touchless unit for a customer in a town of 5500. 2 other in bays for competition. 1st couple months...

Just when you thought you've seen it all.........

We use Nayax and really like them. My Vpos units are in the worst possible location in the self service bays, get wet with every use, and have worked great for several years. of course, I probably just jinxed them!

Yes we are still using them. We like them and would absolutely purchase them again. 3 motor vacs.

Congrats Earl! Wishing you the best in your future endeavors.

Went last time it was in Vegas, not going this year. Not a lot to see for my market.

Maybe convert to a storage unit facility?

Prayers sent to Pat and family.
