The IMO experience offers quality, speed and value for money through a unique conveyor wash system which can wash up to 4 cars at a time, with guaranteed results every car.

Quality. Our highly trained operators pre wash the vehicle to remove all surface dirt and apply specially formulated chemicals to clean the wheels.We pamper the car with soft foams and scented waxes that remove dirt but are gentle on the bodywork. By using state of the art technology we can deliver consistent results every time.

Speed. The wash process is designed to deliver consistent results every time whatever the weather. On busy days we can wash up to 90 cars an hour with the same outstanding results. The manual pre wash allows the technology to really do its job quickly and effectively 

Value. Because we are so good at what we do it allows us significant cost benefits which typically means we are the lowest priced automated car washes in the market. The combination of consistent quality, speed and everyday low prices provide a market leading value for money proposition.

Care. The IMO wash system has been developed consistently over 40 years, that means we know cars and to how to wash them. Our cleaning technology is designed to give the car the best possible care whilst our operators provide reassurance and ensure that we deliver great results.
