can you share the link for the decal you used? I would love to find something that will stand up to the water and the weather.

I am looking for an easy to use phone system that can text back and can forward on to an employee. I am currently using google voice, it is free, but can't forward to an employee, and they can't text responses. I have used Magic Jack for other businesses, not sure if it would work in this...

My old Laurel vending machines have given up working. Any recommendations on the best vending machines? Is it worth replacing them?

I am installing Nayax count up in my SS- Nayax doesn't have any prepared signage. Does anyone have signs they can share, so that I can get signs made?

Does anyone know of a company like this in Colorado?

I am not mechanically handy. Yes, I do have other real estate projects, but cashflow is always the issue. Real Estate is not a lot of consistency. The nearest competitor is 2.5 times as much for the first 4 minutes, about 1 mile away and a very similar wash. Other than that, there are about...

Colorado, Denver Metro area. $70-100K sounds reasonable. Especially if it buys me the lack of repair headaches.

I am seeking the advice from experienced SS owners. I have been reading the forums, and trying to learn everything I can. I am purchasing a piece of real estate in a well populated town with 50k population in a 3 mile radius, good drive by traffic, and tough city regulations regarding adding...
