What are the benefits of an Unlimited Plan?

What are the benefits of a monthly subscription to a carwash?

Listen up & we'll tell ya!

Unlimited Wash Plans are a popular monthly subscription programs that allows customers to pay once a month and wash their car as much as they like. Think of it like the Netflix for carwashing.

Why would I want a monthly carwash plan?

In a world where everything is being automated, carwashes are adapting to it! Here are some benefits to having an Unlimited monthly plan:

Ease of use: Long gone are the days where you're panicking to get the pay station to work so you can get through and stop holding up the line. *Everyone has this thought, right? * You'll no longer have to worry about pulling up just to realize you forgot your wallet at home. As long as your credit card is active, your plan is active!
Efficiency: You can use an Unlimited Wash Plan at any carwash location you have it with, as many times as you like! Unlimited Plans also allow you to simply pull up, let a gate scan your sticker, and *poof* move on through the line! No more scrambling to get your wallet out and pay or debating what wash you're wanting to get. In, out, and on your way!
Rainy Day washouts no more: Nothing is worse than getting your car washed, only to have to rain/snow the next day. Car washes no longer give out rainy checks, so you can be left feeling like you just wasted your money. However, with an Unlimited Wash Plan, those rainy days? Fah-get-about-em! You can simply come back through once it's cleared up and have your car looking brand new in no time!

How does an Unlimited Wash Plan work?

Once you're activated, we put a little sticker on the bottom part of your windshield, and one in your car door jam. You pull up to any location in any lane, the gate reads your sticker and opens when it's your turn. With us, there really is no limit on the number of times you can use it, so feel free to run it through as much as you like anytime, any day.

How does billing work?

Pretty simple actually!

With us, all we need is a credit or a debit card to put on file. You're charged the day you sign up, and once every 30 days after that.

It is automatic if you don't touch it, but you're free to cancel anytime you'd like.

If there comes a time when you don't want to use it anymore, that's totally fine! Just give us a call, email us or simply pop up to any of our locations before your renewal date and we can cancel you right then.

If you'd like to restart it back up later, just keep the sticker on your windshield and we'll reactive you whenever you like!

Want to activate a plan?

Now that you have the details, let's get you activated!

Simply click here, choose the plan you'd like, and purchase it online. Next time you come to any of our Express locations, simply show them your purchase receipt and we'll take care of the rest. If you don't pull up in the vehicle you'd like the sticker on, we'll hold the sticker for you for when you come back with the right vehicle. We're pretty easy to work with (perks of being a small business!)

To Our #WashLocal Friends, family and customers...

By Kristina Thomas Car Wash • 10 Jan, 2024

When our family first started Thomas Car Wash, no one really understood why. "Carwashing? Who would want to do that? You want to clean cars for a living?" However, our family pushed forward. Little did they (and we) know of what would come. The first carwash in Louisville. In Kentucky. In the Southeast. And one of the first in the United States. All started by 3 brothers who decided to do something no one else wanted to do. Fast forward 78 years, and we have become the oldest carwash business in the United States , right here in Louisville, Kentucky. Over the years, we've had more fun times, memories and stories than we can remember. Some of our favorites: 1. Uncle Nick (Nick Thomas) closing up shop when it rained and then playing cards with the crew for hours; 2. Planning the region’s first Haunted Carwash - bringing in people from as way away as Chicago and Atlanta; 3. Throwing team events at Churchill Downs, TopGolf and more to celebrate their hard work; 4. Hearing stories of current customers who’s grandparents washed with us back in the day; 5. Building washes all throughout Louisville, serving millions of customers throughout the years. And so many more. Throughout this time, we've put our blood, sweat and (sometimes) tears into this business. Family events were always planned around the wash hours, with many working holidays, weekends, late nights and more. As Eli, Mike and Alex get older, the more they realize how precious and short our time here on life is. After much thought and consideration, the Thomas family has decided to take a break. We will be retiring the "Thomas Car Wash" name & Louisville locations starting January 10th, 2024. Why? Because Eli & Mike want to *actually* retire this time; Alex wants to spend time with his growing family; And most importantly, we know how proud Tom, Nick & Eli Thomas would be to see everything we've accomplished because of them and would want us to enjoy making memories outside of the wash. So, what's going to happen? 1. Thomas Car Wash Louisville locations will be transferred to new owners - Whistle Wash - effective January 10th, 2023. While our name will remain on buildings for up to 6-12 months, we will no longer own these businesses after the 10th. Our Bardstown Road location will remain closed indefinitely. 2. Every one of our crew will have the opportunity to stay with Whistle Wash. We have told everyone that works with us. Absolutely no layoffs have happened under Thomas management. 3. All customers plans will transfer to Whistle Wash ownership after January 10th, 2023. All single-wash tickets & gift cards with "Thomas Car Wash" marketing will be accepted at our current locations until 12/31/2024. 4. Eli, Mike, Alex and the Thomas family will catch up on some much-needed time together. 5. Carwashing is still in our blood. Who knows what we'll end up doing later on - stay tuned on that one! To our crew who has become our family: Words cannot accurately express how much we love and appreciate each and every one of you. From late nights to early mornings, and all the crazy weather in-between, being able to work with some of the most kind, hard-working people Louisville has to offer has been amazing and we are so grateful. We have no doubt we have the best crew in the state, and know that each one of #TeamThomas will do great things. We cannot wait to see it all unfold, cheering you on from the sidelines. We love you all. To all our customers who have become our family: We want to personally thank you for your support. From just driving to wash with us, to telling your friends and family to "Take it to Thomas" - we would not even be writing this if it wasn't for you all. Getting to see and talk to our regulars throughout these years is something so rare nowadays. We are forever grateful for the laughs, the stories, and the quick "Hey how you doing!?" While we know how bittersweet this ending is, please know this isn't a final goodbye, it's a "see you later.” From all of us at Thomas Car Wash, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for choosing to #WashLocal. Love, -Eli, Mike, Alex, and the Thomas Family
