Burton Touch Free Car Wash on Putney Road is open 24/7. We have 3 pressure automatic wash bays as well as 4 self service vacuums and a vending machine with a variety of car care products.
The business we purchased was known as Town & Country Minit Car Wash. The current tunnel portion of the building was the only building on the property at that time. The machinery was barely functioning; cars were prepped outside of the building; The wash was not tall enough to fit vans or pick up trucks. In the first few years, the machinery was repaired and updated; it was raised to accommodate vans and pick-ups; the cement block prep bay was built so vehicles could be prepped inside. The name was changed to burton Car Wash.
1979 purchased another conveyor car wash on Northside Drive in Bennington in partnership with Arthur Eisner. This car wash was operational, but needed substantial repairs which we did.
