Told my wife that we should look into putting in a dog wash at the car wash since there is not one in town. City is about 100,000 people and no other car washes have anything like this. Of course, she looked at me a little funny, so I need some fire power to convince her of the idea. Thought I would look some place where I could get real answers. So, can anyone help me out with some questions?
1. Convert bay/Self contained enclosure? Which is the best way to go? I have 2 bays that are a little slow on the far end of the wash, but can't believe that the dog wash would replace the revenue to justify coverting a bay.
2.Do you need an attendant or have to lock the doors at night? My wash is not attended and would like to keep it that way. I'm alittle concerned about having homeless people camping out in the dog wash in the winter time if I don't lock it up.
3. How bad is the mess? All I do is clean bays and pick up trash...part of doing business, but is this thing going to have to be scrubbed down (walls/floors/equiment) constantly or do customer seem to keep them cleaner than they do the car wash bays? Is my grass going to have steaming mounds all over?
4. Finally, is there anything I'm missing? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lighthouse.
