Yikes rides in Cardiff as well as London: the same cargo e-bikes, the same gentle low-water hand wash, delivered to your street or drive across the city. From Pontcanna's terraces to the Bay's apartment bays, the car stays parked and the wash comes to it.

Yikes Car Wash is a mobile car wash founded in 2023. We cover Cardiff, from Pontcanna and Canton to Roath and the Bay, plus the rest of London, Cardiff and Southampton. A rider comes to your car by cargo e-bike, zero emissions on the journey, and washes it right where it is parked using about a quarter of the water of a typical mobile wash. Prices are fixed and start from £49 for the Essential Inside & Out. Book online at yikescarwash.co.uk/book-online or call 07932 124870.
Areas we cover
Cardiff's best streets for living are its worst for car errands: Pontcanna and Canton terraces with on-street parking, Cathays' student-tight kerbs, Bay apartments with allocated bays a van cannot reach. A cargo e-bike reaches all of them, washes the car where it stands, and blocks nobody.
The method is the same one we run in London: zero emissions on the journey, roughly a quarter of the water of a typical mobile wash, fixed prices shown before you pay, and a text when the rider is on the way. If you have been searching for a car wash near me anywhere central in Cardiff, this is it.
Cardiff paintwork has one enemy above all: seagulls, whose droppings etch lacquer within days in summer. Bute Park and the Taff trail add tree sap along Pontcanna's avenues, and matchday crowds around the stadium kick up dust that settles on everything parked central. Regular gentle hand washes keep all of it from becoming permanent.
Services and prices
Every price is a fixed final total, shown before you pay. The Members Club is £18 a year and takes 20 percent off every wash. Full list on the services and prices page.
