3 Types of Car Washes and the Advantages They Offer

You finally decided to open your very own car wash. 

As you may already know, you will need to go through several steps before officially opening your doors to the public. Among these steps is choosing the type of car wash you want to operate. 

Finalizing this decision early on helps ensure you have the time to acquire the necessary location, car wash equipment, and staff for your business. Without further ado, here are three types of car washes and their advantages.

1. Conveyorized Tunnel Car Wash

Conveyor car washes are by far the most popular option because they are the fastest, most efficient, and most economical methods of getting high volumes of vehicles through the wash.

A tunnel car wash consists of a large tunnel lined with sprayers, and vehicles travel through it at low speeds. It offers comprehensive car wash services, from presoak to drying. With the right car wash equipment, it can also clean the underside of a car.

Since the system is automated, conveyor car washes can get through more cars per hour compared to any other type of car wash. In fact, a high-volume car wash can wash up to fifty cars per hour, which is more than enough for most small parking lots.

2. Full-Service Car Wash

While a conveyorized tunnel car wash provides the quickest and most efficient way to wash a vehicle, it isn’t particularly flexible. For example, most conveyorized tunnel car washes can only clean the car’s exterior.

If you want to offer more extensive car wash services, you may want to look into running a full-service car wash. Full-service car washes are typically pricier than other ones because they cover various vehicle needs. It includes but is not limited to complete detailing services, which involve window cleaning, vacuuming, and wheel cleaning.

Independent contractors usually offer these services, resulting in customers paying for each individually. With your full-service car wash, they can leave their vehicles knowing that it’s getting the complete treatment.

3. Self-Service Car Wash

Some car owners would rather clean their cars, but they don’t have the car wash equipment to do it properly. They then go out to find self-service car washes, which are growing more uncommon since people prefer the automated experience.

If you want a car wash business that stands out and offers much-needed convenience and flexibility, you should consider a self-service car wash. By running a self-service car wash, you also provide people with an affordable way of cleaning their vehicles.

Moreover, you won’t need to shell out thousands to acquire heavy-duty, complicated car wash equipment should you opt for a self-service car wash. All you need is an indoor or outdoor parking space, brushes, hoses, and cleaning products.

Conclusion

Now that you have a clearer idea of the different types of car wash you can choose from, it’s time to take the next step. Start by analyzing your personal, financial, and business goals and choose the car wash system that best fits your objectives.

After that, you can start looking for companies that manufacture car wash equipment. While shopping for a manufacturer to work with, you should take the time to check their years of experience, certifications, reputations, and quoted prices.
