New Opportunity

How much should I charge to wash a fleet of 8 vehicles at the company site bi-weekly? The fleet include 1 M2 Freightliner with a 20 ft. box, 2 Chevy 4500 LCF's with 16 ft. boxes, 1 Ford F-250, and 4 Ford Transit vans. I have to travel 45 minutes to get to the site. Help!

After job report

Detailing business owners: what do you normally send a customer after completing a job?

Do you just send before/after photos, post them on social media, or send some kind of inspection/service report?

Also curious if customers ever ask what was done, what condition the vehicle was in beforehand, or dispute existing damage.
