We are Environmentally Aware

Environmentally aware

A clean car that doesn't cost the earth

Valeting uses water, chemicals, paper and vans. We can't make that nothing, but we can keep it to a minimum — here is exactly how we do it, on the driveway and back at base.

On the driveway

This is where the bulk of our impact sits, so it is where the bulk of our care goes.

  • Water

    We limit the amount of water we use, and only use what is necessary to clean your vehicle thoroughly and safely.

  • Used water

    We take precautionary measures to ensure wastewater never enters the surface water drainage systems — the vehicle is never cleaned directly above a drain, or in line for runoff to travel straight into one.

  • Product use

    Every product is mixed to the correct ratio for the job in hand. That keeps the clean safe for the specific vehicle and stops us pouring away what we don't need.

  • Product research

    We are constantly on the lookout for the latest products, and aim to switch all of the main products we use to bio-degradable alternatives wherever possible.

Back at base

The habits away from the vehicle count too, so we hold the office side of the business to the same standard.

  • Waste

    Our on-board bins are emptied daily, with recycling sorted into the appropriate recycling bins rather than going out with the general waste.

  • Printing

    During our office time we each limit the amount we print, and keep our invoices and receipts in digital form wherever possible.

  • Info distribution

    Our franchise prospectus is a long document. It is emailed as a PDF instead of being printed and posted, which saves the paper and the journey.

Our water pledge

We use water every day. Not everybody can.

For every car cleaned at Mobile Car Spa, we donate to Drop4Drop — a charity working to alleviate the world water crisis.

Using water daily makes it easy to take for granted. After several years of partnership we reached our goal and funded a well of our own for the community of Bichi, in Mzimba, Malawi — a village of 102 people whose existing wells were not clean enough for their children to drink from safely.

How you drive and maintain your vehicle between valets makes a real difference to what it burns, and to what it costs you.
...take pride in your ride, and in the road it's on!
