Thousands take advantage of Free Car Wash Day

Once again this year, Brown Bear Car Wash cleaned thousands of cars during their annual Free Car Wash Day.

Last week during the sixth annual Free Car Wash Day, they washed a total of 26,523 cars at their 20 tunnel locations. “Brown Bear founder and owner Vic Odermat said each location averaged 111 washes per hour over a 12-hour period with no mechanical failures,” the press release states. That brings the six-year total to 132,163.

“The pace was fast and furious and it’s a tribute to our team that we were able to serve so many customers,” said Odermat. “It’s our way of saying thank you to the communities we serve, and hopefully we introduced new customers to the kind of service and value we deliver year round.”
