A New Amenity for Parkway Service Plazas

Zip Wash is a single-lane, fully automated, touchless car wash designed to operate within or adjacent to existing parkway service plazas—cashless, low-staffing, modular, and built for integration without disrupting operations.

The Problem

• High daily traffic volumes with limited capture

• Underutilized or non-revenue-generating plaza land

• Few new amenities that do not add operational burden

This is a system-level challenge across high-volume parkways and service corridors.

The Zip Wash Solution

• Single-lane, drive-through system

• Fully automated and touchless

• Cashless (app-based; toll integration optional)

• One standardized wash

• Designed for parkway behavior (no detours, no POS friction)
