Has anyone here tried mobile detailing regularly?
Lately I’ve been thinking about whether on-demand mobile detailing is actually the future or just a convenience trend that will fade. I live in a condo, no driveway, busy workdays, and honestly dragging my car to a shop feels like a chore every single time. At the same time, I wonder if quality really stays consistent when pros come to you instead of working in a controlled shop environment. Has anyone here tried mobile detailing regularly, and did it actually change how you take care of your car long term?

I used to be pretty skeptical too, mostly because I thought mobile detailing meant “quick wash, nothing serious.” But last year I tried a mobile service when my schedule was completely packed, and it kind of changed my perspective. The detailer showed up at my office parking lot, brought all his own equipment, and spent way more time than I expected. What surprised me most was the transparency — clear pricing upfront, no awkward upselling, and payment only after the job was done. I’ve since looked into platforms that make this process smoother, like https://detaily.ca/ , where booking is straightforward and you know who’s coming and what you’re paying for. I don’t think physical shops will disappear, but for people short on time or space, this model makes a lot of sense. For me, it’s less about luxury and more about removing friction from basic car care.
