Thread: Car valet

  1. #1

    Car valet

    My folks are returning a leased car in a few weeks and looking to have it valeted before doing so. Anyone recommend a company for this?

    Is that not something that the company would do when the car is returned to them? 🤔

    I don't drive so, I've no idea.

    Yes, in my experience of returning a leased car, having it valeted would be a waste of time and money unless it’s like an absolute midden inside and you’re too embarrassed to give it back in that state 😀

    They had it on a four-year lease. Stipulations for return are that it's to be in decent nick inside and out (or you can hand it back as is and suck up any cleaning/repair charges after inspection).

    4 years is obviously a bit different.

    I would google mobile valeting near me and someone comes to your house to do it. I've seen my neighbours doing this but never used it myself so not sure how much it costs but I would go for the most basic of valets available. Even a small valet will have the car looking great and I don't think your folks will have any comeback from the hire company. They'll just be looking for anything broken or stained so no need for them to spend a lot.

    Would go with this option, unless there's something obvious thats an issue needing dealt with .... fair wear and tear is allowed
