The life cycle of the hand car wash is reaching the end in California. A new regulation (AB 1688*) requiring surety bonds to be posted for full service employees, minimum wages set to rise to $8.00 per hour, and closer overall monitoring by the various state agencies that oversee car wash employers, all mean that the time to invest in a mechanized system is now.
Metro International can help you design a low cost mechanized wash system that will allow you to wash more cars, with minimal labor requirements. We can design a soft and gentle, customer-friendly wash process that will produce clean, dry, shiny cars in as little as 50’ or 60’ of conveyor space. And by utilizing your existing components, we can help you to keep your capital costs to a minimum and ensure that your return on investment comes quickly. We can even help you with financing for your equipment.
Metro International has helped dozens of clients make the conversion from high labor costs to more cars and more profits. Customers love the quality, consistency and speed of a new Sonny’s tunnel.
