Car wash sales & M&A

Confidential sell-side advisory for express and tunnel car washes with membership revenue — positioned for national buyers, $500K–$10M.

Why buyers pay a premium

Car washes is a recurring-revenue asset

Express and tunnel car washes with unlimited-wash memberships throw off exactly the recurring, high-margin revenue private equity and roll-up buyers are competing for right now. Priced and packaged correctly, a membership business attracts multiple national bidders — not just the local operator down the road.

What drives value

What buyers underwrite in car washes

These are the levers that move price. We package each one the way acquirers expect to see it.

  • Membership base & churn
    Recurring plan revenue and retention are the first thing buyers underwrite.
  • Throughput & site quality
    Cars per hour, site count, and equipment condition drive capacity value.
  • Real estate
    Owned versus leased land materially changes deal structure and price.
  • Labor & management
    A wash that runs without the owner commands a premium.
