Choosing a mobile valet: a practical guide.

Which valet should I choose?

Start with the part of the vehicle that needs attention, then consider its condition. A larger package is not a promise to remove every stain or repair damage.

Exterior Valet

Choose this when the outside is your priority. Check the package inclusions before adding exterior treatments.

Interior Valet

Choose this when the cabin needs attention. Tell us about pet hair, spills and stained fabrics so the estimate reflects the work.

Full Valet

Choose this when you want both the interior and exterior cared for in one visit.

Full Deep Clean

Consider this for a more demanding clean. We assess the condition and agree the scope and final price before confirming.

See current prices, size categories and exact package inclusions. The booking estimate uses your vehicle size and selected treatments. For oversized vehicles or work beyond a Full Deep Clean, request a custom quotation.

Do pet hair and stains cost extra?

They can. Embedded hair, heavy dirt and staining can require additional treatments and time. Select the relevant condition options in the booking form and review the listed charges before continuing. A treatment already included in your chosen package should not be charged again for that vehicle.

Describe where the problem is, how widespread it is and, for a spill, what was spilled. Tell us about delicate materials, existing damage or previous repairs. Fabric extraction depends on material suitability and safe drying; it is not appropriate for every surface.

If cleaning a small area yourself, follow the product instructions and check compatibility first. For example, Autoglym’s interior cleaner instructions require testing colour fastness before use. This product guidance does not mean every material or stain can be treated successfully.

For suspected hazardous contamination, contact us before booking. Do not handle needles or unknown hazardous material to prepare for a valet.

What do I need to provide?

We bring our own water and power. You provide a safe, suitable place to work, permission to use it and enough space around the vehicle. A workplace booking needs the site owner’s permission where applicable.

• Remove valuables and personal belongings from the areas to be cleaned.
• Tell us about gates, parking restrictions, height limits and access instructions.
• Point out existing damage and any materials that need special care.
• If wet upholstery treatment is planned, discuss drying arrangements before the visit.

Bad weather or unsafe access may require a different appointment. We will discuss arrangements with you.

Where can I book, and when is it confirmed?

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough are our core area. Addresses in Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Lincolnshire and Rutland need a road-route check within two hours’ one-way driving from the Cambridgeshire boundary. This is not a two-hour radius from Chatteris. Check your full postcode and travel conditions; any travel charge is agreed before confirmation.

The online form checks availability, but submitting a request or paying a deposit does not confirm your appointment. We agree the scope, price, time and operator with you before staff confirmation.

The £20 deposit comes off the agreed total. The remaining balance is due on completion, subject to the booking and payment terms. For a two-vehicle booking, the second vehicle’s service and extras subtotal is charged at 85%; its working time is still allowed in full. The form accepts up to two vehicles.
