Back in 1948, Founder Joe Dahm opened Indiana’s first automated carwash, Mike’s Minit Man. A few years later, Joe’s brother Ed Dahm, joined the business. At the time, just 18 carwashes were operating in the United States. Since then, millions of vehicles have passed through the carwash and Crew has become one of the largest carwash companies in the nation. Still owned by the Dahm Family, Crew Carwash continues to grow and innovate to deliver on our brand promise to provide our customers with “Clean, Fast, and Friendly” service – every day. Crew Carwash has opened multiple locations throughout Indiana, Illinois and Minnesota and continues to grow in the Midwest. The name Crew honors our dedicated and talented crew members who work hard to earn your trust. We believe much of our success stems directly from treating our customers to the best possible experience every time they visit. As our Founder, Joe Dahm often said, “We’re really in the people business, we just happen to wash cars.”

Autobell® was founded in Charlotte, NC, in 1969 by the late Charles “Charlie” Howard, and is still privately held and family-operated. Charlie had the vision to provide a high-quality car wash experience with the focus on the customer. Do that at a good value, and people would keep coming back. Charlie’s vision has not only survived, but it’s also thrived. Autobell® now has more than 3,000 highly-trained team members and washes nearly five million cars annually. Charlie also believed in what he called a community conscience. That’s why the entire company is committed to environmental protection and conservation, treating 100% and recycling up to 100% of our wash water through technologically advanced equipment. Autobell® prides itself in offering service to the community and team member growth.
