Cancellations and Rescheduling

A $50 cancellation fee or 50% of your service cost, whichever is higher may be charged for cancellations that occur within 24 hours of your booking due to administration and time costs involved on such short notice. In the instance that our technician has arrived on site, then a no refund policy applies as we lose this booking allocation. You will always receive reminder notifications up to 2 days in advance. In the circumstance that you would need to reschedule then no cancellation fee applies, provided that the rescheduled date is within the next 2 weeks and notified to us by a phone call with at least 24 hours notice to your original booking allocation.

Damage & Loss Policy

Even though we recommend the removal of all valuables and possessions from the vehicle prior to your car wash service, in the case of damage or loss, please follow this procedure. If such an event occurs, this must be communicated to us within 24 hours of service by email, in writing, so that our team can investigate your matter further.

Hazardous Condition Policy

If your property is deemed a hazardous cleaning situation that goes over and above our normal cleaning environment included in our car wash packages, our car wash professionals have the right to decline the offer. Upon such a service, you will be charged a $50 booking fee or up to 50% of the service price (whichever is higher) as a holding fee for reserving your space in our schedule. Hazardous conditions may include, but not limited to, human/pet waste, sharp objects, weapons, toxic spills, insect infestation, mould, diseases,  and so on. Same applies to vehicles parked in a non-serviceable area i.e illegal parking, right next to traffic, less than 2 feet availability surrounding the vehicle (obstruction-free) – all of which expose our Sydney car detailers in a vulnerable and dangerous situation. Please disclose this information upon booking over the phone or online via our instructions section.

At Schmicko, we service everything from your nifty micro hatchbacks to caravans and mini trucks, yes the whole lot. Because we receive vehicles in all sorts of sizes and shapes, we do charge a higher price for larger vehicles. As you can imagine, the time take to clean a truck in comparison to a small hatchback would be up 2 to 3 times longer in time required.

Due to the extra time and supplies necessary to complete the job, we have separate pricing for each vehicle type/size for each car detailing package, this will apply to both interior and exterior car detailing. Please refer to the booking page to view the pricing differences for larger vehicle types. Upon selection of your vehicle type and package, you will see the booking summary update with the new price.

If your vehicle is deemed dirty beyond the typical/average car, additional time, cleaning agents, equipment and effort will be required to restore your vehicle to a reasonable condition via our mobile car wash. For this reason, we have the additional extra add-on ‘Deep Clean’, which can be selected if your vehicle is in a state that contains excess or uncommon pollutants.

So do you need a deep clean added to your booking?

Great question, ask yourself, does your car have the following:

1. Soiled with mud/dirt/dust
2. Grass embedded in fabrics
3. Sand
4. Pet fur/hair
5. Road grime on side panels
6. Excessive bug guts, bird droppings, tree sap and road tar
7. Excess rubbish
8. Excess staining
9. Beverage/Liquid spills

You should also ask yourself

1. When was your last mobile car wash appointment with us or if you are knew, when was the last car wash? If we are talking months, then most likely you will need to apply for extra time. We are assigned a set amount of time to perform your mobile car wash package, so the more time spent on one area beyond the assigned time, the less time we have for other areas of the vehicle. At least with a deep clean, we can split time accordingly to ensure the necessary areas are tackled effectively.
2. Did you just take it on a long road trip or regularly travel?
3. Is this your work vehicle and do you carry many tools or deliver products?
4. Do you travel with kids or pets often?
5. Do you tend to eat in the car often?

Of course, these are just some questions to consider and not all cars are driven equally. However, our Mobile Car Wash Professionals are trained to inspect vehicles prior to cleaning and will determine whether a vehicle may require a Deep Wash if necessary.
