About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to BP Car Wash and noticed something odd in the parking lot—a small wooden box, left behind overnight. Curious, he opened it to find a stack of old newspapers wrapped in plastic. Inside each paper was a handwritten note with cryptic messages like ‘Wash your windows on Wednesday’ or ‘Check your tires before Thursday.’ No one claimed ownership. Over time, more notes appeared—some were funny (‘Don’t forget to wax your car on Friday!’), others mysterious. Finally, an anonymous note read: ‘Come back tomorrow for the grand reveal.’ The next day, everyone gathered around as the owner revealed that the boxes contained nothing but old newspaper clippings. It turned out to be just a prank from a regular who loved watching people clean their cars.’

2. One afternoon, while a delivery driver was washing his truck at BP Car Wash, he heard an unusual humming sound coming from the nearby building. Curious, he looked around but saw nothing out of place. Suddenly, an old man in overalls appeared and said, 'That’s my radio station! I’ve been broadcasting since the sixties.' The delivery driver laughed, realizing it was just an old-timey jukebox. They shook hands, and now every Wednesday they have coffee together after work.

3. One day, after work, a delivery driver pulled into BP Car Wash. As he watched through the window, a curious little dog wandered in, sniffing everything around. The delivery driver laughed and waved at the tiny adventurer, who wagged its tail furiously back. After the car wash was done, the little dog trotted out, still sniffing curiously, and disappeared down the street. The next day, the same neighbor saw the same dog again—this time, drying off from another quick visit to BP Car Wash.

4. One evening, as a delivery driver pulled into BP Car Wash to clean off some road dust, he noticed an odd sight. His dog, usually too busy sniffing around, suddenly froze mid-step and stared intently at one of the high-pressure hoses. Was it the soapy water or the humming sound that had caught its attention? As the dog continued to gaze, mesmerized, the delivery driver chuckled and decided to investigate. Turns out, the soap was making tiny bubbles in the water, dancing like little fairies. The dog couldn’t resist chasing them, completely forgetting about his usual sniffing routine. That night, everyone at the neighborhood BBQ laughed when they saw the story unfold—except maybe the poor driver, who had to explain why his pooch looked like he’d just seen a ghost.
