The car wash sits on the property of the former Otto's Brauhaus. It is also a stone's throw away from another Pete's on Route 611 (Easton Road) in nearby Warrington Township.
With more than 50 years of combined car wash experience, Pete's sets the industry standard for professional, environmentally friendly car washing services.

Using cutting-edge technology, Pete's minimizes the environmental impact that a full-service car wash has on Mother Nature.
"Our process is so revolutionary it is actually more dangerous for our customers to wash their cars in their own driveways than at one of our five locations," Pete's states on its website. "So whether you drive a sports car, truck, SUV, or motorcycle, you know that you can trust Pete's Express Car wash to get your vehicle back on the road looking cleaner than ever."
Pete's has a new location in North Wales along with other state locations in East Norriton, West Chester, and Strafford besides the Warrington location.
In 2022, Pete’s Car Wash received final approval for its land development plan from the township.
Otto's Brauhaus was a German-American Restaurant located on Easton Road in Horsham. Otto's had been in existence since the 1930s when the Hockel Family first opened its doors.
Otto and Marie Fritz purchased the restaurant from the Hockel Family many years ago and then sold it to Mary Dare, a longtime township community advocate who died in February.
Dare sold the business in 2007.
