It will depend on how dirty your vehicle is, if it has pet hairs on it, if you want your carpets shampooed as well, interior only? or both interior and exterior.

For a mid sized SUV, costs run from around $129 to $199, again, depending on your variables.

This was posted on our company's classifieds. The person who posted it supposedly has used them and has good things to say about them. I have not used them yet, but have been meaning to do so....

A little 2 person operation so the overhead savings are basically passed down to the consumer. If anyone does book an appointment with these guys, pls post a review.

The Shine Factory did a great job on my car. I had to book well in advance as they are so busy.

Damnit I just got my car detailed on the weekend, it was a place right down the street from Golds Gym off of 13th st S.E. and they did a fantastic job, I just can't remember the name of the place.

X 2 for Shine Factory or JC Carwash off Edmonton Trail is where we send most of our customer vehicles for detailing. They do a great job and they are family owned and operated.

Just to bump this, has anybody used any of these places recently?

I'm looking at buying a used vehicle from a dog owner, so I was hoping to find somewhere that will do an inerior shampoo without spending a tonne of cash.

I actually ended up using Chatelaine Auto Spa, and Reene and her gang did an AMAZING job on my truck. Full detail inside and out with an engine shampoo for $400 and worth every penny.

Check out their site.

You can probably get a much better deal than the above post at Doctor Detail. They operate in the underground lot of the WorleyParsons building on McLeod and Southland. I've had them do every car I've owned in the last 5 years (which amounts to 5 cars lol), and my parents have them do a shampoo on their car now and then (when the dog hairs get out of hand). Always great, and you won't pay $400.
