    After three weeks of hoping to find a fixed or mobile valet/washing service I gave up and today washed the Motorhome myself. Fortunately we have a flat roof garage so I can reverse up to it and step on the roof. It took 2-3 hours using Fenwicks and elbow grease.

    The site we store on has a telephone number for a wash and valet cleaning service. It doesn't appear it's actually based on the storage site so I assume it's mobile. However we are in Essex so not much help unless you choose to combine it with a visit to our diverse county 😉. I have heard that the hand car washes on supermarkets may be prepared to do it. If you havd any in your area it might be worth enquiring. Oh derry I've just checked and you're a caravanners- but might still be worth asking.

    I have seen a caravan on our local "handwash"but they still use a pressure washer to "rinse" off which put me off straight away,they do a lot of Herts county council vehicles ,not sure the vinyles are very safe

    Just done ours, see my post Roof & Exterior cleaning.

    Don't know if your health/ability allows you to, but a step ladder, some Fenwick's, a mop from Wilkinson's and some polish has left ours looking like new.

    Links to what I used are in my post.

    Did mine last week using the Fenwicks, bush & steps method The flat roof is difficult, but must be washed, because the muck turns to mud, then went you move the van, a muddy waterfall makes a mess down the van sides. Take care using steps it's a difficult balancing act at times. Using small steps inside the van, standing thro the roof light is a safer way, but more difficult to get soap & water to the brush.

    We have ours cleaned at home once a year and what a fantastic job they do.  I just googled the subject and came up with one that was near to us. He brings all his own gear - very safe but expensive looking ladders and uses autoglym products and I think it's distilled water

    I think it's a national company but I can't remember the name I'm afraid

    good luck with your search
