Detailing on campus
Stanford is right next to our Palo Alto base. We detail cars for people who live in campus housing, including faculty and staff neighborhoods and graduate residences, and for people who park on campus for work.
Campus parking and housing have their own rules, so the first step is checking that detailing is allowed where your car is parked.
Permits, housing rules and outlets
- Campus parking is permit-controlled. Tell us where the car is and where our vehicle can park while we work, including whether a visitor permit is needed.
- Many residence lots do not allow washing. An Interior Detail needs only an outlet near the car, so it is often the simplest option on campus.
- You don't need to be there. Tell us how to reach the car and leave it unlocked or the keys where we agree.
Packages you can book in Stanford

What we need at your address
- A standard electrical outlet near the car, every time.
- A water tap only for some jobs. We tell you when we confirm; if we don't, you don't need one.
- A reasonably level spot with room to walk all the way around the car. We never drive or move it.
- The car unlocked or the keys where we agree, valuables removed, and pets secured away from the work area.
