CHARLOTTE (November 5, 2026) – Autobell Car Wash will salute U.S. military veterans and active-duty service members this Veterans Day with a complimentary ride-through exterior Quality Wash, or a matching credit toward another wash option, on Wednesday, November 11, 2026. The offer is available at every Autobell location across North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware.
Veterans and active-duty personnel simply need to visit any Autobell to receive the free wash, with no coupon, barcode, or ID required. Should rain interfere on the 11th, the offer carries over to Thursday, November 12.
Autobell locations are open every day, with hours that vary by site. For a full list of locations and hours, visit autobell.com.
“We’re proud to honor the men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country,” said Autobell President and COO Carl Howard. “This is one small way we can show our veterans and active service members that their service is never forgotten, and that our appreciation and support are always here for them.”
