If the number of car washing businesses in Turlock is any indication as to whether locals enjoy doing the job themselves, the answer should be pretty clear.

The city of Turlock is currently home to six standalone car washes, as well as four others that are housed at gas stations. Back in November, an application was submitted to the City of Turlock for Mister Car Wash, a Houston-based car wash company, to build their fourth location in the city. The site of the proposed 5,940 square-foot project is 2530 W. Tuolumne Rd., a vacant lot right off of Countryside Drive sitting directly next to fast-food restaurant Farmer Boys.

Like the existing Mister Car Wash locations in Turlock — 1400 Geer Rd., 487 N. Golden State Blvd. and 980 W. Monte Vista Ave. — the proposed location on Tuolumne would have an automated car wash facility with free, self-service vacuum stalls. Additionally, the location would have the same business hours, open daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

According to the applicant, CWP California Corp., an estimated 20 to 25 employees will be hired once the car wash opens.
