A national car wash chain is the latest business to enter the Del Rio market.
A BlueWave Express Car Wash is under construction at 2201 Veterans Blvd next to IHOP, on what was once Payless Shoe Source.
The California-based company which has been rapidly expanding its Texas market, offers premium express car wash services and free turbo-powered vacuums. It recycles the water it uses in the car wash process, and says all its products are biodegradable and eco-friendly. A BlueWave location features long tunnels with advanced equipment that includes a conveyor car wash system, vacuum bays with free vacuums and an express pay station.
A vehicle can typically get through the car wash in about three minutes, according to BlueWave Express. The car wash offers four types of washes ranging in price from $5 to $15.
The new Del Rio location is tentatively scheduled to open for business this coming August.
