What is Maxol Wash Club?
Wash Club is a monthly membership that lets you wash your car up to 10 times a month at participating Maxol stations. Instead of paying each time, you simply scan your phone at the car wash. You sign up through the Maxol loyalty app.
How much does Maxol Wash Club cost?
It costs €19.95 a month for regular washes, rising to €27.95 a month for premium washes. If you use all 10 washes, that works out at less than €2 a wash on the regular plan, and less than €2.80 on the premium plan.
Where can I use Maxol Wash Club?
It’s available at 59 Maxol stations. That includes Maxol Spawell and Maxol Coolquay in Dublin, which have American-style conveyor car washes. Maxol expects around one million cars to go through its car washes this year, and it’s aiming for 1.25 million next year.
Is Maxol adding more EV chargers?
Yes. Maxol says it has been cautious about EV charging until now, because of demand, grid capacity and how quickly the technology is changing. With electric cars now making up more than 27 per cent of new car sales in Ireland, it plans to expand its network in 2027 and 2028.
The next ultra-rapid charging hub is planned for Rathnew in Wicklow, and Maxol says it will run on 100 per cent renewable energy. The company is also trialling a feature in its app that will let you pay for charging from your phone.
Where are Maxol’s EV chargers now?
Maxol already has charging hubs and standalone chargers in Dublin, Meath, Kildare, Galway, Cork and Wexford, as well as in Antrim, Derry and Down in Northern Ireland.
What else is new at Maxol?
Maxol now offers cooked-to-order meals and groceries delivered to your door from 51 of its stores, through a partnership with food tech company Noahs.
You can order online, through your phone or at touchscreen kiosks in store. Maxol Deli counters at those stores now stay open until 10pm. Maxol CEO Brian Donaldson said: "By working with the right partners, we have extended our reach into the nighttime economy and to new customer groups, and there is significant demand in Ireland for this all-day service”.
