What is a Mini Valet Service?
A mini valet is a streamlined version of a full valet, focusing on the areas of your car that need regular care and attention. While it’s not as extensive as a full valet, it still ensures your vehicle looks fresh and clean. Ideal for those who want a quicker, cost-effective option, the mini valet is perfect for routine maintenance between deep cleans.
Exterior Cleaning
The exterior of your car is the first thing people notice, and Clean Me makes sure it always looks its best. Our mini valet exterior service includes:
- Pre-wash with snow foam: A gentle pre-wash to break down dirt and grime.
- Hand wash with premium shampoo: We carefully hand wash your car, ensuring it’s spotless without risking scratches.
- Wheel cleaning: We clean your wheels to remove brake dust and grime, leaving them shiny and fresh.
- Glass cleaning: All windows and mirrors are cleaned to a crystal-clear finish.
- Quick dry: We dry your car thoroughly to prevent watermarks.
Interior Touch-Up
While the mini valet may not include the deep cleaning of a full valet, Clean Me ensures your interior is clean and comfortable with the following services:
- Vacuuming: We vacuum carpets, mats, and upholstery to remove dirt, dust, and debris.
- Dashboard and console wipe-down: Surfaces are wiped clean, removing dust and smudges for a polished look.
- Interior glass cleaning: Interior windows and mirrors are cleaned to improve visibility and leave a streak-free shine.
- Rubbish removal: Any loose items or rubbish are collected and disposed of.
Our mobile valeters have nationwide coverage across the UK, covering towns, cities, and villages in England, Scotland, and Wales. Our huge network makes booking a mini valet near you very easy. Check out the map below to see all the mobile car valeting locations we cover.
How Often Should I Get a Mini Valet for My Car?
We recommend booking a mini valet every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on how often you use your vehicle and your driving conditions. If your car is regularly exposed to dirt, pets, food, or frequent passengers, a more frequent mini valet can help maintain its cleanliness and prevent buildup.
Mini valets aren’t as comprehensive as a full detailing session. It’s a quick, easy, and affordable top-up that keeps your car looking presentable. Perfect if you’re short on time but want to maintain that clean, fresh feel.
Comparing a Mini Valet and Full Valet
A mini valet isn’t designed to transform your vehicle’s interior and exterior appearance. It’s a recommended service package for people who need a quick sprucing up. It won’t get into the deep nooks and crannies where dirt and grime accumulate over time. But it will leave your car looking and feeling clean and presentable.

Your Questions Answered
A mobile mini valet service is exactly what it sounds like. It’s a quick car cleaning – interior and exterior – that covers the basics. You’ll get a hand car wash, cleaning of key items (wheels and glass), and a tidy up of your car’s interior (including vacuuming, interior wipe down, and rubbish removal).
If your car needs a little bit of TLC, it’s a brilliant option. You can book an appointment for your lunch hour and have a clean, tidy car by the time you drive home from work.
Always ask the operator in advance for an estimated timeline. Please park in a location where there’s enough time to complete the task. Your operator will let you know via the app when they’re finished.
On average, a mini valet takes around 2 hours, depending on the prior state of your vehicle. Compare that to a full valet, which can take 3 hours or more. It’s a convenient “mini” session designed to tidy up your vehicle, rather than perform a full, deep clean.
Your chosen operator should disclose which chemicals and processes they use. If in doubt, send them a message via the Clean Me app – they’ll be more than happy to answer your questions.
Yes. In fact, you can book a mini valet anywhere that’s convenient. This could be at home, work, or even your local gym. We’ll come, perform the valet, and give you a reminder when we’ve almost finished.
The only thing we ask is that wherever you choose is safe and accessible. We need the freedom to access all sides of the vehicle.
If you require any optional extras for your mini valet, you can add them on at the point of booking. Or ask your washer to add them onto your existing booking through the chat.
No. You will need to meet the mobile car valeters at the beginning to hand over your car keys (if they’re doing interior work). Otherwise, you are free to go about your business until the service is completed. You’ll receive updates on their progress and a notification when the valet is nearly finished. Once complete, the team will return your keys, and your car will be ready to go.
