Three operating car washes across Roanoke, Salem and Bedford
Investors Real Estate Partners is pleased to offer three operating TLC Car Wash locations, available individually or as a portfolio. Each site conveys turnkey with the real estate, equipment, brand, website, club members and POS data.
A ready-made regional footprint
The group combines two express tunnels on established commercial corridors with a hybrid in-bay and self-serve site carrying new 2026 touchless equipment. Both tunnel sites run the Sentinel POS platform with RFID club readers and online club sales, which simplifies integration for a buyer taking on more than one location.
Ownership will consider offers on all three as a group, and each site is also available on its own. Operating history is available to qualified buyers with a signed NDA.
- Two express tunnels plus one hybrid in-bay and self-serve site
- Shared Sentinel POS platform at the tunnel sites
- New 2026 Washworld Razor touchless at Bedford
- Billboard lease income at Salem ($15,500 per year)
- ±1.92 acres combined across CG, HBD and commercial zoning
- Turnkey: real estate, equipment, brand and club members convey
The TLC Car Wash brand conveys
All three sites operate under one local brand, TLC Car Wash, with a shared wash menu, a single Unlimited Wash Club and its own website. The name, logo, website and domain, club members and POS data transfer with the sale, so a buyer steps into an established brand instead of rebranding three sites.
- Unlimited Wash Club with monthly billing and no long-term contracts
- Members can wash once a day at any of the three locations
- Gift cards and member-only discounts already in place
