There is no one-size-fits-all answer
How often you should valet your car depends on how you use it. A daily commuter on the Kingsway needs different care from a weekend classic garaged in Broughty Ferry. Here is our practical guide for Dundee drivers.
Daily commuters: every 2–4 weeks
If you drive every day, your car is constantly collecting road grime, brake dust, and pollution fallout. A Mini Valet every 2–4 weeks — depending on the season — keeps the paint protected and the interior fresh. In winter, lean towards the shorter interval to stay on top of road salt.
Family cars: every 3–4 weeks
Children, pets, and weekly shopping mean crumbs, mud, and spills. A Mini Valet every 3 weeks plus a Full Valet every 3 months keeps family cars hygienic and looking good. The Full Valet includes hot-water seat and mat shampoo that resets the interior.
Weekend and show cars: monthly
If your car is garaged and only driven at weekends, a monthly Mini Valet is usually enough. Add a Full Valet before show season and a ceramic coating for year-round paint protection with minimal maintenance.
The cost-effective option: Valet Subscription
Our Valet Subscriptions let you choose how often you want your valet — Every 2 Weeks, Monthly, Every 2 Months or Every 3 Months. Prices start from just £24 every 2 weeks for a small car. There is no call-out fee, payment is collected automatically, and you book your own appointment each time. It is the simplest and most affordable way to keep your car immaculate.
