The Wash Exchange

In this episode of The Wash Exchange, Blair Woolcott sits down with Rob Sacco, the owner behind Waves Carwash — voted the No.1 car wash business nationally and the dominant wash brand in the ACT, with sites now stretching into Victoria. Waves Carwash Rob has built Waves into a genuine multi-format operation: full-service tunnel washing, 24/7 self-serve bays, touch-free automatics, and Enhanced Care detailing across five Canberra locations — plus a family-friendly flagship with a café and kids' play area that turns a car wash visit into a destination. Waves CarwashWaves Carwash We get into how Rob thinks about site format mix, why full-service still works when the industry is racing to express, building the Wash Club membership base, staffing a labour-heavy model, and what it takes to expand a regional brand interstate. If you operate a wash — or want to — this one's worth your time. 🎧 Listen on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Brought to you by Slipstream Pro.

Mel and Mike from OHM co have built a car wash people actually talk about — and in this episode they break down exactly how they did it. Blair sits down with them to unpack the marketing that genuinely moves the needle for an Australian wash site: how they pull in first-time customers, what turns those one-off visits into regulars, the promotions that worked (and the ones that quietly didn't), and how they think about building a brand that sticks in a market where most washes look the same. Practical, honest, and full of ideas you can put to work at your own site this week. Stick around to the end — there are a few bloopers in there too. The Wash Exchange is the podcast for car wash operators who want to run better sites and build better businesses, brought to you by Slipstream Pro.
