Coin Op Dog Washes: Keep tails waggin’ with these 10 tips for pet wash success

1. Make sure you have adequate space.
“Typically we recommend a 10 feet by 10 feet space for one dog wash,” explained Erik MacPherson, president of TMC Dog Wash Solutions, a company which manufactures pet wash systems.

2. Visibility is key.
“We recommend that customers place their pet wash in a highly-visible location near their carwash,” explained Heather Steines, executive vice president of CCSI International, Inc., a company which distributes All Paws Pet Wash systems. “In most instances, this location is on one side of the carwash or is slightly in front of the carwash.”

3. Make sure it’s secure.
A small gated, fenced-in area will give the dog owner better peace of mind so that they have a better overall experience, MacPherson said. MacPherson also suggested that operators who have an underperforming bay or extra space should consider an indoor system which allows even more security. Just make sure to use as much glass as possible so that people can see the dogs being washed. “People like to watch,” MacPherson said, pointing out that it’s a great selling tool.
