Toyota detailing in Palo Alto

Toyotas tend to be the cars that do everything. We give yours a thorough hand detail without you leaving home.

Mobile Toyota detailing for hard-working cars

Toyota detailing on the Peninsula covers a lot of ground: Priuses on the Caltrain run, RAV4s full of soccer gear, Highlanders and Siennas with three rows of kids, and Tacomas with something always in the bed. Our mobile team comes to your home in Palo Alto, East Palo Alto, Mountain View or nearby, and cleans the car by hand.

NOVA is independent and not connected to Toyota. We detail these cars the same careful way as every other car we see.

You do not have to be home for the visit. Leave the car unlocked or the keys where we agreed, take out valuables, and we will text you when the car is ready.

Where Toyotas usually show wear

Because these cars are driven a lot and kept a long time, wear shows in the same places. Cloth seats collect crumbs in the seams. Rubber mats fill with grit. The plastic around the door handles and cupholders gets sticky.

We vacuum seams and rails, scrub mats, wipe every hard surface and clean inside and outside glass. On three-row models we work through the rear row and cargo floor, and on pickups we clean the bed and liner.

  • Cloth seat seams and crevices
  • Cupholders and console bins
  • Third rows and cargo floors
  • Truck beds on Tacomas and Tundras

Outside care for daily drivers

Daily drivers pick up road film from 101 and 280, pollen in spring, and dust in the dry months. We hand wash, clean wheels and tires, dress the tires and finish the glass.

Black plastic trim on bumpers and mirrors often turns gray over time. Elite Restoration includes trim restore, which helps faded pieces look darker and more even. For a normal wash, we clean the trim but do not change its color.

Rain season brings its own film of road spray and leaves in the cowl below the windshield. We clear the leaves we can reach and wash the glass edges where grime builds.

Which package fits

For most Toyotas the Full Detail is the right size: a thorough interior plus the hand wash outside. Add the engine bay if you like. If the car has years of stains, pet hair or sap, send photos for an Elite Restoration quote.

We do not offer ceramic coating, waxing, sealants, paint correction or film.

The package we suggest

Full Detail. Prices depend on the car and its condition, so we text you an exact price before anything is booked. Not sure? Text a photo and we will suggest one.

Questions

Can you clean cloth seats with old stains?
We work on them by hand and many lift. Some older stains only fade. Heavy staining is quoted after photos.
Do you detail Tacoma beds?
Yes. The bed and liner are cleaned as part of the exterior. Please empty loose cargo first.
Can my faded black trim look new again?
Trim restore in Elite Restoration helps faded trim look darker and more even. Very sun-damaged trim may still show wear.
How long does it take to hear back?
Texts are answered within 15 minutes between 7am and 7pm. A request is not an appointment until you confirm by text.
