Should All Car Wash South Carolina Recycle Their Water?

By Jessica Gibson


Why on globe is Gamble and Procter being concerned in the sedan purification diligence? Furthermore, why is possibly the maximum shopper merchandise corporation of all times getting into the franchising commerce? You see, P&G is a great branding company, and some belief the best in the world. The article will lead us through the theme a new Car Wash South Carolina franchising system.

There is not a minimum traffic count that will determine your overall success. However, traffic count along with other location factors will be a major factor in your overall success. A good indication of how traffic effects the overall success of location is shown by how many franchise operations will determine where or where they will not allow their retail stores to be located.

There was an interesting editorial in auto Washing Magazine recently titled; "Law requiring van washes to recycle water passed in CA, " which was published on September 27, 2012. The actual Law states; Sure, it makes sense to save water, but realize that businesses want to be efficient to save money, so such a law isn't needed.

In my experience, the minimum benchmark was usually around 20,000 average vehicle count daily traffic before they would consider a location. This does not mean that lower traffic counts will not work. You should, however, have strong reasons to locate on a road that the traffic count is lower than 20,000 though. Also, keep in mind that traffic count is only one factor in traffic equation.

P&G could also make it work, as an all-hand-wash, mostly outdoor thing, as they do outside Tempe, AZ near the college, where college students wash cars on top of a concrete slab with a clarifier underneath, but that will not be so great for an inclement climate weather locations. And I doubt if P&G would be looking there because that is not their style, but it would work well.

An actual automobile cleanse uses that much even after they recycle, plus, 4-6 gallons of water typically leave the automobile swab and drips off later outside as they move the cars out of the tunnel quickly. Then it also drips off the undercarriage as they drive down the road. Still, although the law affects very little, it has unintended consequences and will be used by the equipment vendors in the sedan cleanse associations to sell more equipment.

One of the first things I learned when evaluating locations as a commercial real estate professional was that the speed limit in front of a prospective location was almost as important as the amount of traffic that went by. I would look at a prospective site and say "wow" this location has 30,000 vehicles a day, but my mentor would not be as enthusiastic about the prospective location.

Next, consider that there is landscape, bathroom, and washing down the facility of the auto wash, all of which also uses water as well. Does that count? Do sedan washes now have to put tiny meters about all of their other water uses? Who is going to monitor all this that costs taxpayers money for more enforcement officers to run around to check?
