Choose a suitable place for the vehicle

A driveway or another agreed private parking space is usually easiest. There should be enough room to move safely around the vehicle without blocking a pavement or working in moving traffic. The areas we cover lists the villages and postcode districts we work in.

If parking is tight, shared or controlled, mention it before the appointment so we can check the location works.

Clear access around the car

Move bins, bikes, toys and other obstacles away from the vehicle. Keep keys available in case the car needs to be repositioned, but do not leave keys unattended outside.

Remove valuables and personal items

The Premium Setup Wash includes the interior, so remove loose belongings, visible valuables and anything fragile before we arrive. Maintenance visits include an interior vacuum and wipe-down too, so keep seats, footwells and the boot reasonably clear. What each visit covers is set out on the plans and prices page.

Check the forecast, but do not panic about it

Light, changeable weather does not always stop a mobile clean. Strong wind, very heavy rain, freezing conditions or unsafe surfaces may mean the appointment needs to move. We contact you if the conditions are not suitable.
