Longtime Mount Prospect car wash out
Posted May 01, 2018 11:00 pm
Busse Car Wash in Mount Prospect, which has been in business since 1982, closed April 7. But even though the business no longer washes cars, it's far from being washed up, General Manager Chad Busse said.
Instead, it will focus on another aspect of the business that has been thriving - full-service auto repair. Auto detailing also will continue, Busse added.
"We are lucky that we are very busy at the repair shop," he said.
Busse said he'd been considering closing the car wash for a long time.
"It wasn't a viable business model," he said. "And so it was really a crossroads. The choice was to invest more money and time into that part of the business or say that we have done what we could."
