Sounds like it is priced right based on the revenue and location. That said look at the equipment and see if it has good life remaining or if additional investment will be necessary. If still resided in the Boston area I would take a serious look at the place!

IBA can compete against a tunnel if run well. Tunnels are not touchless so a touch free IBA could do well with customers not looking for the cheapest wash (monthly programs) nor want to run the risk of damage to their vehicle - plus an IBA is Always Open! SS is a demographic as there are a lot...

Its wild to watch when the SS Bays are slammed more than the IBAs....More snow on Saturday (in the Mid Atlantic)

I pump out the top water with 2” pump and then use...

If you ever want to replace pump valves (easy to do) there is a good you tube video from Tom Allen of KleenRite fame. You should only use a socket wrench to open the valve nut so you do not strip the corners. Also helpful to own a breaker bar (sold at HD in various lengths). Great for...

If that’s Canadian dollars it is about $310USD. Seems a bit high. Does it include installation? maybe it includes a tariff.

Thank you for posting. Wow are there a lot of exemptions or considerations to navigate. Need an accountant and lawyer to figure them out. Just easier to complete the form as it really is not a big deal. I suspect they are just trying to put real names to the various shell companies that own...

Really depends on the location. The premium may be worthwhile due to the location or demographics. Northeast and West Coast you are paying a premium for the land. That said I have seen similar priced 6 bay (4SS/2IBA) all new equipment for sale at similar ask (and revenue is close to $500K)...

Don’t over think the data. If you read about the latest hack of the US Treasury database I assure you that the dark web and Chinese already have all your data and then some. No more secrets given all the possible ways for a hack to happen without a company or institution realizing it for a...

Find a local insurance agent that represents a few companies. Not easy to find a firm willing to insurance a carwash and as mentioned more expensive than imagined or should be.

Most touch free bays with dryers inside the bay are 40' (including ours). You could get by with that length. That said if you can build 50-55' without major issues I would. Gives you options for the future (say buy ups like a rain arch) or at minimum it reduces the spray that hits the roll up...

Now you can exhale and smell the roses. Congrats on the sale.

I just received a message I just today received an email from my bank describing the process and a link to registration. Crazy thing is that the bank and government already have all that they are requesting when account was opened and the LLC established. Guess one computer cannot talk to...

No joke. I hear the stories and some are way beyond belief. I am trying to be transparent and realistic with day to day operations at a carwash. Has not discouraged her. We shall see. My best employee (our Lab) has no complaints and is wonderful with customers.

We tried smaller cans, small trash openings, and eliminating the trash bins totally. Nothing worked to reduce the work. First two options just created headaches as people will try to balance their trash on the can even if it will not fit or no room exists. They just do not care if it goes on...

My wife is jealous of me and my washes. She runs large schools and universities dealing with bitchy parents, kids, and teachers. Not all but enough to make her days challenging. She cannot wait to quit that life and work with/for me at the washes. She has started working some weekends to...

everything is a leap of faith, hard work, and smart decisions. In short I got into the business by accident almost 10 years ago. Attended an auction for a place run into the ground where little to nothing worked. People in the industry were super kind to me and educated me about the industry...

Get a designated phone and paste that number everywhere? this is the best way to learn about issues and get five star reviews (plus offering a great product).

Small piece of junk inside the plunger! I should have known. Needed a bright light to see it.

I have a LP Flo Jet (Air Logic unit) that runs non stop for just one bay (3) out of five when the bays are totally off. I replaced the Flo jet with a new unit and still have the same issue. I can run the meter box normally without an issue. Wand looks like the LP tire Chemcial is running as...
