Four decades of car wash brokerage and advisory

Car Wash Brokers was founded to serve a single, specialized market: the sale and acquisition of car wash businesses. Since 1985 the firm has operated nationally, building a practice around one asset class rather than a general business brokerage.

That focus produced a working knowledge of how car washes are valued, financed, and operated. Tunnel throughput, membership retention, chemical costs, equipment age, and real estate control all shape a transaction, and each is examined directly rather than assumed.

Today the firm represents owners across the country, from a single-site operator preparing for retirement to a multi-location group evaluating a portfolio sale or an add-on acquisition.

The firm operates as both a brokerage and an M&A advisory practice. For individual owners, that means confidential marketing, qualified buyer outreach, and hands-on management of diligence through closing.

For multi-location operators, the practice extends to portfolio strategy, valuation support, and transaction structuring across multiple sites and entities.
