OK, here's a question. For those who can't get their rigs on their home driveway, or anywhere near their house, where do you go to get them washed? The CG has a policy against washing vehicles in the park. I've seen drive-thru car washes with RV/Truck bays, but was wondering if any have used the Blue Beacon wash service. Comments.

Many folks get them done at truck stops that have car washes.

Streakin Beacon

I am not a real big fan of the Blue Beacon. They are more in for a fast wash than a thorough wash. Always having to go back and get stuff redone. Headache rack,pipes always see the swipes marks on the pipes where they miss.

Just my .02 CDN pesos

There's a reason Blue Beacon is AKA Streaking Beacon.

we've had the same problem in Florida. However they do permit a mobile wash service to come into the park and wash your rig. Since we hit a snowstorm on the way out of NY last year, we used him with very good results. Total wash including the roof and very reasonable priced.

John, have you asked the owners for permission? Sometimes if you offer them a $5 or $10 dollar donation...

Last time I had mine washed by a mobile wash service they broke my dryer vent and left a mark on the rear cap I cannot get out. If I need it washed I will do it myself.
