knew who the dog was from the bark alone. He<br />

also said his favorite thing about being located in<br />

a small town is the people appreciating your business<br />

and they way he has taken care of it and cares<br />

for it every day. Another draw, he added, is the minimal<br />

amount of abuse and vandalism. “People appreciate<br />

small businesses in small towns,” he said.<br />

Timm, who does all of the maintenance on the<br />

equipment himself, said his favorite thing about<br />

owning the car wash it is watching everything<br />

work correctly and seeing the customers enjoying<br />

the wash. “I also like seeing their pride in their vehicle<br />

when it’s all done,” he said.<br />

The car wash is celebrating its 30th anniversary,<br />

a milestone Timm is celebrating with a 30% off<br />

deal to his loyalty customers. Timm said he recently<br />

upgraded the car wash with new LED lighting<br />

and new self serve equipment. It is so bright in the<br />

bays now… I want our customers to feel safe and<br />

secure and be able to see their clean cars.<br />

As for his advice to others, Timm said keeping<br />

the property clean is key. “If your car wash is not<br />

clean, people will get the impression that their car<br />

won’t get clean. I am happy to go to the wash every<br />

day and clean it up. It is part of the job and I<br />

am happy to do it.”<br />
