About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while drying off cars under the sun, an employee noticed something odd on the conveyor belt—a small, dusty teddy bear with a tag that read ‘Found in Zips Car Wash.’ Curiosity piqued, he checked around but found no owner or witnesses. Word spread quickly among the staff, and soon everyone was talking about the mysterious bear. Some suggested it belonged to a local child who had lost it during their last visit, others thought maybe it was from a delivery truck or a neighbor’s car. Finally, one day, a delivery driver walked in, sheepishly holding a small teddy bear wrapped in plastic. 'Found it in my van,' he said, laughing. Turns out, his wife had packed it for him as a joke gift.
2. One day, while drying off cars under the sun, Zips Car Wash employees heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention please—your vehicle is now officially the cleanest in town!’ Curious, one of the workers decided to check the computer and found that their own car had been marked as spotless. Turns out, someone had accidentally entered the wrong vehicle ID number. That evening, a regular customer walked in with a smile, thanking them for making his car look so pristine—and left a tip big enough to buy everyone ice cream. Moral of the story? Sometimes being the cleanest car in town isn’t always what it seems.
3. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet, Zips Car Wash employees noticed something strange: their logo on the sign started spelling out random messages in the fog. One morning a delivery driver arrived and saw ‘WASH ME PLEASE’ glowing eerily through the mist. He thought it was an invitation from the car wash itself! Another day, a neighbor drove by and read ‘FREE DETOX FOR YOUR WHEELS,’ thinking Zips had suddenly become a health spa for cars. By noon, everyone knew about it—except that no one could ever make sense of those foggy messages again.
4. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet, Zips Car Wash employees noticed something unusual. A delivery driver was carefully placing boxes of donuts on the counter, smiling mysteriously. From then on, every morning before opening, a delivery driver would arrive with fresh donuts for everyone. The secret? He was just an enthusiastic customer who wanted to make sure his favorite car wash stayed happy and well-fed. Zips Car Wash became known not only for its cleanliness but also for its legendary donut supply.
