You need to consider a number of factors when starting your own car wash business, particularly the type of car wash itself. Self-service, hand
wash, automatic, mobile or a combination must be carefully researched
and priced for economic viability, profitability and return on
investment. Mobile and hand wash car washes require a smaller upfront investment in equipment, but ongoing labor costs must be considered.
Self-service and automatic car washes require less labor, but upfront
machinery and real estate costs can be high.
