Not sure if these people exist but I would like to take my van to get it cleaned. Dealers I have spoken till will clean the van if servicing done at the time. As servicing is not required that option is out. She is looking grubby after a being out over winter.
I cannot do it myself as I have nowhere to clean it, between houses.

Thanks

    I have seen it mentioned that some of the "eastern european" staffed wash businesses will do caravans and motorhomes.  If your local one doesn't they will know who does.

    If you type caravan valeting into your web search engine you will find loads of mobile services out there.

    I take my car to a local jet wash run by Eastern Europeans.  They do a fantastic job and it's £5 for the  outside and £10 for outside and inside (£7 & £15 for a 4X4) .  They also do caravans and it's £20 or £30 if you want the roof doing too.  More expensive
    for the roof as they need stepladders etc.

    Just remember Jet washes and c/vans or coach built m/vs are not a good mix

    Write your comments here...JVB, you beat me to it, even dealers use jet washers, Bogart, stipulate hose pipes only.

    Our current van has a coating and easily wipes clean, on site, with a bowl of water. Roof cleaned once a year at service. On our old van we used that Dry Wash product throughout the year and again it received a full clean when serviced.

    All I ever use is Showroom Shine, it works a treat, and no, I can't see any scratches or surface damage...Cool
