Mobile car wash questions.

What is the difference between mobile and on site?

Mobile means we come to your home or office at a time you book. On site means we are already at your business park or apartment block on its set day each week. The services and prices are the same, so choose whichever suits you.

Do you come to my home or office?

Yes. Our mobile service comes to your home or office in Cape Town, and you do not need to move your car.

Which areas of Cape Town do you cover?

Our standard service radius is 15km from Arden Grove in Milnerton. We also work in Woodstock and Frere Estate, and further areas may be possible with a travel charge.

Do you need my water or electricity?

No water is needed, because we bring our own supply. Power is optional: we can use a standard 220V outlet or bring our own generator.

Do bakkies and SUVs cost more?

No. Cars, bakkies and SUVs all pay the same price, for every service. Mobile and on-site bookings cost the same too.
