If you own a mobile car wash business or auto detailing business, sometimes the best clientele are businesses, which are typically not sought after by your competitors due to their brand stigma. But I would advise mobile cleaning service companies to reconsider such quick judgments and I’ll tell you why.
With Ugly Duckling and Rent-A-Wreck there is a lot of work going on in the washing and detailing of their car sale lots. As these companies expand, we see a lot of potential in laundry for them. For example, Ugly Duckling had our company in San Antonio TX wash all of his cars. They also have several more dealerships in Austin TX to sell their used cars. Each lot has about 100 cars and takes about an hour to complete. Our team has done an excellent job keeping you happy. Rent-A-Wreck also has Rent-A-Cars in Florida, California, Arizona and throughout Texas in Dallas, Amarillo, Austin, San Antonio, Brownsville, and Lubbock. Ugly Duckling has many locations and you can visit their website to see if they are in your area.
They are in Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, and California. They have 85 lots for sale in 8 states and they are growing. We saw that another was being built in College Station TX when we walked through it. Their corporate office is in Phoenix and they sell a little over 3,800 cars per month on average. Rent-A-Wreck is an amazing company to work with. They have more than 400 agency offices and are in almost every state. They are also a publicly traded company.
I would advise any auto detailing company or mobile car wash company to consider these potential accounts if they have locations in your region of operation and don’t let silly names cloud their judgment. We have been successful in doing business with both Ugly Duckling Rent a Car and Rent-A-Wreck. If you are looking to expand your customer base, you should go in and ask them if they need your services. So consider all of this in 2006.
