Mr Wash is offering free car washes tomorrow — Thursday, Aug. 15 — in honor of back-to-school season.

All 11 Mr Wash locations in Northern Virginia, Maryland and Delaware — including the Arlington spots at 4148 S. Four Mile Run Drive and 101 N. Glebe Road — are participating in the promotion. To claim the offer, customers don’t need to do anything other than visit a Mr Wash, the company said.

“As schools are back in session, we know how important it is for families to have a clean car,” Mr Wash COO Evan Harris said in a press release. “We want to support our local communities by offering this free service. Our team is excited to help kick off the school year on a bright note.”

Mr Wash offered a similar deal last year, but at that time free washes were limited to teachers, administrators and school faculty.
