Fall-Scented Car Washes

ScrubaDub Offers the First-Ever Pumpkin Spice-Scented Car Wash

The irresistible aroma and warm, cozy flavor of pumpkin spice become such a fall obsession that people can even seek out the first-ever Pumpkin Spice-Scented Car Wash to turn everyday trips into a seasonal sensory experience.

New England's oldest car wash company, ScrubaDub Auto Wash Centers, is introducing this experience for a limited time this autumn at locations across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Main, inviting drivers to add UltraShine with Pumpkin Spice for $5. During the season of giving, every Pumpkin Spice Car Wash purchase in November will help to provide meals to critically ill neighbors via ScrubaDub's annual Pie in the Sky partnership with Community Servings.

To maximize the scent experience, ScrubaDub recommends customers turn off their car's air recirculation system and turn on their heat or AC during the wash.
