What keeps Eldoret car washes busy
Eldoret sits on the main route towards the Uganda border, so transit trucks and long-distance vehicles pass through along Uganda Road. Many stop for a wash before or after the long drive. Local matatus, boda bodas and private cars add to the daily flow.
The town is surrounded by farmland, and pickups come in from the fields with mud on the wheel arches and dust in the cabin. In the rainy season the red soil turns to thick mud; in the dry months it becomes fine dust. Either way, cars rarely stay clean for long.
Washes cluster around Eldoret CBD, Pioneer, Langas, Kapsoya and Elgon View, often next to garages and tyre shops. Students and staff from the town's colleges and universities also bring a steady stream of smaller cars.

Why car washes in Eldoret use software
Heavy vehicles that hold up a bay
Trucks and lorries need more time and more water. The live queue tells you which bay is tied up and how many cars are waiting, so you can send staff where they are needed.
Records the owner can trust
If you are not at the wash all day, you need numbers you can rely on. Every check-in, payment and expense is recorded with the time and the staff member, and you can view it from your phone.
Mud on mats and carpets
Muddy floor mats and carpets are an easy upsell. Carpet jobs are priced per square metre, and before and after photos help you show customers the difference.
Paying a large team
Busy washes in Eldoret may run several attendants per shift. Automatic commissions mean each person's pay is worked out from the jobs they actually did.
Taking payment in Eldoret
As elsewhere in Kenya, M-Pesa leads in Eldoret, through Till numbers for walk-in customers and Paybill for fleets and businesses. Drivers passing through often pay cash, especially for truck washes. Prices are in Kenyan shillings.
Every branch in CarwashManage can run on its own Till or Paybill, using one of three options: manual M-Pesa entry that needs no setup, Daraja STK Push on your own number, or Kopo Kopo. With STK Push the cashier enters the phone number, the customer confirms on their handset, and the wash is marked paid without anyone copying codes from SMS. Cash, cards and bank payments are added against the right job. Revenue by method is shown in your reports, ready for cashing up or for your accountant's KRA work.
Fully supported in Eldoret
Eldoret is fully supported. You get M-Pesa STK Push, KES pricing and help from our Nairobi team in East Africa Time over WhatsApp, phone or email. There is a 14-day free trial with no card needed, and plans begin at KES 2,500 per month.
Car wash software in Eldoret: questions
Can I give transport companies a monthly package?
Yes. Memberships and prepaid wash packages let a fleet owner pay upfront for a set number of washes, and the system tracks how many are left.
Can I print receipts for drivers who need them for expenses?
You can print 80mm thermal receipts from the counter, which truck and company drivers often ask for so they can claim back the cost.
Will it show me which services earn the most?
Reports break down revenue by service, staff member and payment method, and you can export them to PDF or Excel.
Can you help me set up STK Push on my own Till?
Yes. Our optional, paid M-Pesa Setup Service takes your Till or Paybill through Daraja API approval, configures STK Push and confirmations, and tests it with you. Contact us for pricing.
