Mobile car wash in Kentish Town

Kentish Town is Camden's workhorse neighbourhood: the Fortess Road and Lady Margaret grids, the Dartmouth Park slopes, and a CPZ that turns every parking space into property. Yikes rides over from Archway, a few minutes north, and washes your car without it ever leaving the bay.

At a glance

Yikes Car Wash is a mobile car wash founded in 2023. We cover Kentish Town and the Dartmouth Park side, NW5, 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: the Essential Inside and Out is £61, or £49 for members. Book online at yikescarwash.co.uk/book-online or call 07932 124870.

Minutes from base, deep in the routes

NW5 sits directly between our Archway base and Camden Town, which makes it one of the best-covered postcodes on the map: riders pass through constantly, so slots are plentiful and same-day is a genuine possibility rather than a marketing line.

The neighbourhood needs the model, too. The Victorian grids off Fortess Road have permit bays, no driveways and mature street trees, so the sensible wash is the one that comes to the kerb: cargo e-bike, zero emissions on the journey, water carried on board at about a quarter of the typical volume, careful hand finish.

The NW5 mix: trees above, brake dust below

Dartmouth Park's avenues drip lime and plane sap onto everything below from May onwards, while Kentish Town Road and Highgate Road paint nearby cars with brake dust and traffic film. The railway lines add their own metallic dust on the Gospel Oak side. All standard, all removable, provided the car gets a regular gentle hand wash rather than an annual scrub.
