[NEW JERSEY] Need your car detailed at a reasonable price? Hit me up.

Hey whats going on everyone? My name's Allan. After detailing my friends and family's cars/vans/trucks I was told many times in the past that my work is awesome and that I should do something with it. Well, I'm currently unemployed right now and serious about doing this to make some income while I find a full-time job again. Anyway, lets get to business. My services go from a simple hand wash to a full interior and exterior detail. I take my time while working on people's cars because I have pride in my work. It takes me an average 2-3 hours to detail a single car depending on how big it is, how dirty it is, etc. - My prices are reasonable and I believe they're cheaper than what other people are charging, but the quality of work is excellent. I'm available Monday through Friday around the Bergen County area and I'm usually in the Middlesex County during the the weekend. You can either come to my place and wait in the garage, drop the car off to my place, or I can even come to you. Hit me up at (201) 647 - 8072 anytime, text or call.

My Detail Portfolio:

Temporary Special for average sized cars:
Next 5 People get the $50 Full Detail. After the 5, price will be bumped up to $75. If a Van or Truck needs work, price will be adjusted.

My Usual Schedule / Availibility:
Mon-Fri - Anytime, just need advance notice
Sat-Sun - Anytime, just need advance notice

$50 Full interior and exterior Detail includes:
- Wash car by hand
- Dry car off
- Wax car by hand
- Wash tires
- Tire shine all tires
- Vacuum interior
- Clean and condition the interior trims, panels, dashboard etc.
- Wash and clean the exhaust(s)
- Clean all windows

Optional Services:
- Clay bar whole car (prices vary depending on size of vehicle)
- Remove oxidation (prices vary depending on how bad it is)
- Degreasing and cleaning of engine bay (prices vary)

An example of one of my recent jobs:

You got it. Most people drop off in the morning with someone else in their car to leave with and come get it later. I'll give a call about an hour before I know I'm done. Also, I've brought people to the commuter rail which is only two miles down the road, then picked them up when they arrive back.

Sounds good. I'll have available weekend dates posted to the calendar on my website around the beginning of April. Just keep an eye out and submit a request to grab a spot.

I'll post here when it's updated as well.

Thanks for your interest!
