Our Detailing Process Explained

Pricing Structure

At Bumble Bee Auto Detail, we offer two main packages—Basic Buzz and Buzzworthy—with set base prices determined by your vehicle size: small, midsize, or large. These base rates reflect typical vehicle conditions and are meant to give you a clear and honest pre-tax estimate up front.

However, not every vehicle is the same. If your vehicle has heavier-than-average interior or exterior buildup—such as excessive pet hair, staining, sap, or road grime—this may require additional time, products, and labor, which can affect both the final cost and turnaround time. We’ll always communicate this clearly before work begins so there are no surprises.

While most vehicles fall within the listed price range, some details require more attention—and that means a bit more investment. We strive to be transparent and fair with all pricing so that you receive the highest quality service tailored to your vehicle's actual needs.

If you're ever unsure, we’re happy to provide a more precise quote after a quick walkaround or photo review.

BASIC BUZZ EXTERIOR

We start with a Dirt & Dust Blow Out of the interior to lift debris from hard-to-reach places like under the seats, in the door pockets, and around trim edges. Then, we follow up with a Thorough Vacuuming of carpets, floor mats, seats, and cargo areas. All interior surfaces—dash, door panels, console, and more—are wiped down and cleaned using professional-grade products that remove grime without leaving behind residue. We finish it off with a Streak-Free Window Cleaning, inside and out, for clear views and a polished look. To help extend the life of your interior, we apply UV Protection to plastics, vinyl, and rubber surfaces. This helps prevent cracking, fading, and wear caused by the sun—especially important in the warmer months or for vehicles parked outdoors.

BASIC BUZZ EXTERIOR

On the outside, we treat your wheels, rims, and tires to a full Tire, Rim, and Wheel Cleaning, followed by a Foam Wash that safely lifts dirt and road grime without scratching your paint. The exterior glass and mirrors are cleaned to a streak-free finish, and your tires are dressed for that finishing pop. Finally, we apply a 10-14 Day Sealant to the exterior paint to provide temporary protection from the elements, adding a light gloss and repelling water and dust between washes. The Basic Buzz is ideal for busy parents, commuters, or anyone who wants professional-level detailing at an affordable price. Whether you’re getting ready to sell your car or just want a refresh, this package delivers results that go beyond the drive-thru car wash.

BUZZ-WORTHY INTERIOR

We begin with a complete Dirt & Dust Blow Out of the interior, clearing debris from hard-to-reach places that often go untouched. Next, a Thorough Vacuuming ensures carpets, floor mats, seats, and cargo areas are free from dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. To restore your upholstery, we provide a full Carpet and Upholstery Shampoo, lifting stains and embedded grime. Leather seats? No problem—we deep clean and condition leather surfaces to restore softness and prevent cracking. Every interior surface—from dashboard to door panels—is cleaned and sanitized with professional products, followed by a Vent Steam Treatment to eliminate hidden bacteria and odors. We then move on to the Ozone Treatment, which targets lingering smells (like smoke, food, or pet odors) at a molecular level, leaving your cabin fresh and clean.

BUZZ-WORTHY EXTERIOR

On the exterior, we go beyond the basics with a Tire, Rim, and Wheel Well Cleaning to remove brake dust and grime buildup. Your vehicle receives a two-step wash: a Foam Reset Wash to loosen dirt and a Contact Decontamination Wash to safely lift it away. Exterior glass and mirrors are cleaned streak-free, and a Tire & Trim Dressing gives rubber and plastic a rich, like-new finish. To top it all off, we apply a Ceramic Spray Sealant, offering up to 2 months of protection from water, UV rays, and environmental contaminants. It adds a sleek shine while making your paint easier to clean between washes. The Buzzworthy Package is ideal for families, daily drivers, rideshare vehicles, and anyone who wants showroom-level results without the showroom price. It’s more than a detail—it’s a transformation.
