Good to know

Before you drive over.

Do I need to book?

Not for a wash โ€” just drive in. Valets and polishing are by booking so we can give the car the time it needs.

Do you use recycled water?

Yes. Rinse water is filtered and reused, and we use a fraction of a hosepipe wash.

Can you do bakkies and SUVs?

Of course. Bigger vehicles add a little to the price because they take a little longer.

How do I pay?

Card, tap or cash. Monthly fleet accounts are available for businesses.
