    What in the world is this thing?

    They might have had trouble with people breaking the wand holders and tried to protect them, or they're artistic embellishment.

    Trash Can Recommendations

    I put a heavy rock from my landscaping in the bottom of 2 of mine. One of them I got a piece of light chain and hooked it to a sign post.

    Nayax- what does this mean?

    There are several reasons for this to come up. Sometimes resetting it from Nayax Core will fix it, sometimes you need to reload the parameters. If those don't work, call support and they'll get it back online. Their support has been very good the last few times I have called

    Hexagon Ceiling Lights for Bays

    I put Jellyfish lights on my wash, it looks good and you can program the lighting color and effects however you want. It was about $17,000 to do mine.

    ringomatic tags

    Again, it depends on the state. Utah does not require licensing for small trailers but, surrounding states do. If you are stopped in one of these states, cops will usually just let it go if your vehicle is registered in Utah.

    Lost keys to Medeco T-Handle Lock

    A lot of shops have portable welders, they can fabricate the parts at the shop and do the welding on site.

    ringomatic tags

    Depends on the states you are traveling through. Easiest is to get a temporary tag from your home state and comply with their laws. If it is owned by your wash, they could classify it as a commercial vehicle and then you have to comply with the commercial vehicle code. Put it in your name.

    Should I do renovations or not?

    Looks absolutely matter. You can probably update your meter boxes without replacing. I would absolutely add the ability to accept chip and tap. A good facelift can do a lot for you. Consider updating your lighting if you haven't already, make sure the place is nice and bright.

    Lost keys to Medeco T-Handle Lock

    Take pictures, get good accurate measurements, and sketch what you want and take them to a fab shop. A good shop will be able to work from that. Accurate Measurements are critical!

    Nayax Old

    More and more businesses are charging Convenience Fees for credit cards. I charge an added convenience fee for cards on my vending machine. As long as the extra charge is disclosed, it's fine. One wash close to me charges $6.00 for twenty minutes for card users.

    Where the Nayax acts as the timer, it can be set differently without affecting the cash price I believe.

    There is one local credit union whose cards don't work in mine. I've had a few customers with them, overall, a very small percentage, and most have another payment they can use.

    Petit 360i Extra Tall

    That is the hesitation I have about going with the extra tall. I think I wash enough full size trucks and SUVs that I can send those through the tall and cars through the standard. I have a customer with 5 tall vans that would use it for sure. I don't know how many others are around town that...

    Changing Function Names

    Dirt Buster might be good for Pre Soak, most people ignore it because they think the high pressure is what does the cleaning. I try to tell customers and have even shown people with really dirty cars how much better the Pre Soak cleans. Turbo dry is probably better than Air Dry, just cause...
