This giveaway has ended. Congrats to our winner Amy R.
My blog followers are all about saving more, spending less, and living better. Sometimes that means doing it yourself, and sometimes that means knowing when to leave a job to the professionals.
We have all washed our car in the driveway at some point. But did you know it is actually better for your car and the environment to leave it to the experts? A clean car will drive better and feel better. Especially after the long and harsh winter we had. And, a professional WaterSavers carwash uses 40 gallons (or less) of water and safely filters the runoff to be recycled or routed directly to the water treatment facilities. At home, we are going to use more water and release harmful chemicals into storm drains that go right into our rivers and streams. Our garden hose uses 63 gallons of water in just 5 minutes!
So, while you are gearing up for your next road trip, remember to:
1). Wash your car. Remove any harmful residue from the winter. You can find a list of local WaterSaver Carwashes here.
2). Clean up your interior using eco-friendly products. Use a mixture of baking soda and water to scrub the floor mats and microfiber cloths to wipe down your seats and surfaces.
3). Perform scheduled maintenance. Don’t forget to change the oil and check your tire pressure. Tires that are under or over inflated can affect the safety of your vehicle as well as reduce your gas mileage.
Ready to roll? Lucky for us one lucky reader will win a WaterSavers Car Essentials Prize Pack with some great goodies for your next trip:
