I had 2 ring-o-matic vacuum type over the last 25 years, no experience with clam shell. Pumping your own sumps is handy as it can be done at nite or when wash is slow. I dryed dirt then hauled it away and sold some to landscaping outfits. Gardens thrived on the dirt but the weeds were a...

'NO Stems ,no seeds that you don't need Acapulco gold is bad ass weed '. Lol

Glad you're still with us !

Great to see your still lurking in the shadows. Merry Christmas

I would not be without them.If the coinmech jams they can still use bills.One incident in 26 years with bill accepter being vandalized. That case was me and customer having argument .

Holy smokes over complicate a clip board ,note pad and pencil. I'm still using the same check off list from 1989 with updates over time. It' KISS!

That's it ! I got that and used a leaf blower. Turned on floor heat mid october,different strokes for different folks. Have a nice day !

I use 1 breakaway from the boom to whip hose and swivel at gun and from whip hose.

Ask me or attendant if 1.00 coins work in wash after they just got them out of the changer. A few ask to exchange back to bills then get $ 20.00 in quarters.

You better figure on a full time attendent,divide hours among employees. Constant maintenance issues and keeping a parts inventory to minimize breakdowns. This is a hands on business to survive and not cost effective to have breakdowns fixed by outside techs.

I'm blunt with realtors and future buyers of this haggling back and forth. This is my price and it's fair ,there is no reduction in price. Realtors only have self interest and moving on to the next victim.

I'm the opposite, 3 bay attended ss with 3/ 30 gal cans per combo unit and 4 islands, 8 cans inside bays. It's the nature of the business in my region and I welcome as much mud as the customer can bring. I have no after dark trash dumping as I gate the business after dark. No access to...

Kimberly, I relate to the dilemma of passing a successful business on without any family members interested. I've taken note of other business owners selling and moving to other towns, cities, even states to avoid driving by and cirquing how the business looks. Keep the forum posted and thank...

I'm shocked to see in the for sale section that Kimberly Berg is listing her wash. She is an example of women entrepreneur being successful in a male dominant business. Best of luck in her future endeavors.

I agree with the above, but if you still want to proceed look up regional car wash shows near you. Waxman on this site advises to work @ car wash for awhile. That is always good advice too. Btw what is the population of town and county area.

I used oak barrels cut in half filled with dirt then potting soil,lots of flowers. Positioning them front of bays and entry. Biggest draw back was over spray from bays killed them about mid summer, attendant employee would spray them off during day. Once in while kid would pull flowers to give...

I spent time and resources exploring charging stations at my SS. This would be in conjunction with my usps contracts. The state regulatory commissions made it impossible to even recoup my maintenance expenses and I would be considered an energy producer. Rates would be set by the Public...

Here in a town of 10,000, when there is high school or university sports at home, car washing takes a break.
