What makes this shop different

Shelbyville is where you can do it yourself — or hand it to us.

This is the only one of our two shops with self-serve bays. 5 of them, open to anybody who’d rather run the wand themselves and take their time on the wheel wells.

And when you don’t feel like it, the same lot has our full hand-wash service and the complete detailing menu. Some folks use the bays all summer and book a Time Travel detail before winter. Both are right here.

Shelbyville is also our hand-wash location — there is no tunnel at all on this property. If you’ve been protecting a black paint job or a new truck, this is the shop you want.

I took my Toyota Prius to them after years of trying to get stains out of the seats and smoke smell out of the car left by the previous owner. They cleaned it so well, shampooed the seats, did some kind of odor removing bomb for the interior, and it smells so clean now.

Shelbyville questions

Where is the Shelbyville car wash located?

We're at 31 Main St, Shelbyville, KY 40065, right on Main Street. Open Monday–Saturday, 9am–5pm. Closed Sunday.

Do you have self-serve bays in Shelbyville?

Yes — 5 of them. They're the only self-serve bays we have; the Frankfort location doesn't offer self-serve. Come do it your way, start to finish.

Is the Shelbyville location a hand wash or a tunnel?

Shelbyville is our hand-wash shop. Every vehicle is washed by hand with clean mitts and dried by hand with microfiber — there's no tunnel at all on this property. Our Frankfort location is the drive-through, and that tunnel is touchless. Neither shop owns a brush.

Do I need an appointment?

Not for a wash — just pull up. Detailing and larger vehicles like RVs, boats and horse trailers should be scheduled ahead so we can set aside the time.

Do you serve Simpsonville and Waddy?

We do. Shelbyville is the closest shop for most of Shelby County, and our mobile detailing runs out to those areas too.
