Clean Inside and Out, Start to Finish

The Basic Package in Tampa is a maintenance detail that restores shine and removes the buildup from regular driving.

When your vehicle needs a maintenance detail in Tampa, the Basic Package covers both the interior and exterior to remove the dirt, dust, and grime that accumulate from daily use. Whether you drive a coupe, sedan, SUV, or pickup, the service is priced by vehicle size and includes hand washing, wheel cleaning, vacuuming, and surface wiping to bring your vehicle back to a clean, presentable state.

Carry On Detailing uses a microfiber mitt for hand washing, removes light to moderate bug stains, road tar, and tree sap, and cleans all dirt and brake dust from rims, tires, and wheel wells. Tires are dressed to restore their shine, and exterior glass is cleaned to leave it streak-free. Inside, floors, seats, and the trunk are vacuumed and blown out to remove debris from cracks and crevices, all hard surfaces are cleaned and disinfected, interior glass is wiped clear, and door jambs are thoroughly cleaned. Pricing starts at one hundred twenty dollars for small vehicles, one hundred fifty for medium, and one hundred eighty for large.

What Gets Cleaned and How It Looks After

The Basic Package in Tampa starts with a hand wash using a microfiber mitt to lift dirt without scratching the paint, followed by cleaning the rims, tires, and wheel wells to remove brake dust and road grime. Bug stains, road tar, and tree sap are removed from the paint, and tires are dressed to restore the dark, glossy appearance that fades under sun exposure.

Inside the vehicle, all floors, seats, and trunk areas are vacuumed and blown out to remove sand, crumbs, and dirt from cracks and crevices. Hard surfaces like the dashboard, console, and door panels are wiped down and disinfected, and interior glass is cleaned to eliminate streaks and smudges. Door jambs are wiped clean to remove the dirt that collects when doors open and close in humid conditions.

This package is designed for vehicles that are driven regularly and need consistent upkeep rather than heavy stain removal or paint correction. After the service, you will notice cleaner windows, fresher-smelling upholstery, and a vehicle that feels cared for again without the buildup that makes it look neglected.

Here is what most people ask first

The Basic Package is a straightforward service, but it helps to know what is included and what to expect before scheduling, especially if you have not had your vehicle detailed in a while.

What size vehicle qualifies as small, medium, or large?
Small vehicles include coupes, small sedans, and hatchbacks. Medium vehicles include mid-size SUVs, medium sedans, jeeps, and small pickups. Large vehicles include full-size SUVs, full-size pickups, and minivans.
How long does the Basic Package take to complete?
Most Basic Package appointments take between one and two hours depending on the size of the vehicle and how much dirt has built up since the last cleaning. You do not need to be present during the service.
What is not included in the Basic Package?
The Basic Package does not include stain removal, carpet shampooing, leather conditioning, wax sealant, or paint correction. It focuses on surface cleaning and maintenance rather than restoration.
How often should I schedule a Basic Package detail?
Most people schedule a Basic Package every four to six weeks depending on how much they drive and where they park. Vehicles exposed to direct sun, coastal air, or frequent family use tend to need it more often.
Why does Tampa weather make regular detailing important?
Florida's heat, pollen, and humidity cause dirt and grime to accumulate faster on paint and interiors. Regular detailing prevents buildup from becoming harder to remove and keeps your vehicle looking clean between services.
