Overland Park, KS -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/13/2012 -- The Overland Park auto detailing company, KC Detailing, has posted the busiest January in the company’s history. In the first eleven days of the month the fully mobile auto detailing company has grossed more in sales than their previous two Januarys combined. Their outstanding success this winter owes great thanks to unusually warm weather in the Overland Park area.
Being a fully mobile auto detailing company with no fixed location, KC Detailing greatly depends on above freezing weather conditions to perform their services. The Overland Park area is no stranger to harsh winter conditions with frequent blizzards and sub-freezing temperatures. These conditions present significant challenges for outdoor auto detailing. Crew leader Melody Powell comments, “auto detailing in the cold can be really difficult. Not only are you wet and freezing, but the water on the ground turns to ice making it slippery to walk on. It’s especially hard to do an exterior detail on a big truck or SUV when you need a step ladder to reach the top. Besides that, nothing cleans up easily when it’s cold.”
With Overland Park experiencing warm temperatures this January KC Detailing has been working overtime for auto owners who are taking advantage of the spring like temperatures. Owner Tim Dodd comments, “We’ve seen a lot more high-end cars out of storage this January. With more Maseratis and Mercedes out on the streets of Overland Park than usual, we’ve had a lot of auto detailing to do and the ability to do it - a perfect scenario.”
This warm winter has made auto detailing a breeze for the company thus far, but it’s not the norm. Hibernation is the usual solution for nearly every auto detailing company in Overland Park with no fixed location. However, KC Detailing is fighting those bearish tendencies and strategizing how to keep the momentum going through cold months. Plans are in the works to soon provide an auto detail at work or at home no matter what Jack Frost may bring.
In the mean time the days of feast and famine are far from over for mobile auto detailing companies in the Overland Park area. As always, the extra cash flow is greatly appreciated this time of year and it shows as Dodd concludes with a laugh, “If global warming is real, at least one good thing is that we auto detailing companies who depend on nice weather will be busier in the winter months.” Dodd provides more information for Overland Park car owners who want a winter detail at http://www.kcdetailing.com/auto-detailing-areas/kansas/overland-park/.
