Door-to-door CAR WASH

subscriber Posts: 3
Hello,
How viable is a door-to-door car wash business?
If I knock at your home and say that "I can do a car wash for you for $20" would any of you willing to pay?
This wash would include:
1. Exterior wash with soap
2. Interioir vaccum
3. Interior Shampooing
4. Interior dashboard/vinyl polishing
5. Tire and rim cleaniing
NOTE: All this service will be done while the cutomer is in the comfort of their home. And the vehicle will be washed on their driveway. I will have to take access to their garden hose.
Please give your honest advice on the viability of this business.
Thanks

Convenience has a strong appeal to many "busy" people.
I had a client some time back who operated a "mobile" mechanic business. He cam to your house/ work place to fix your car. It got a lot of interest - but was hard to build a following. With travel and down time between jobs - he wasn`t generating the income per hour like a garage can do.
You might want to "run some numbers" to see if the business can make money or how much you will have to charge.
The parts issue was a factor because he could only work on one car at a time.
However, the ability to get a "full" schedule and minimize travel time between each stop are the ones I wanted to mention to pirate, because they can make a big impact on the revenue generating potential.
