Royal T Car Wash
Meet Royal "T" Car Wash, of Derry, NH
At Royal "T" Car Wash, our primary aim is to deliver top-notch cleanliness for your vehicle. However, our commitment doesn't stop there. Equally important to us is ensuring that every customer feels appreciated and receives treatment fit for royalty. That's why we've adopted "LET US TREAT YOU LIKE ROYALTY" as our tagline.
We invited the team at Royal "T" Car Wash to answer these 5 questions:
1) Please tell us about the company, describe its business activities, its mission statement, and any historical milestones since its founding.
We are a full-service car wash and detailing center proudly serving our local community. Our facility features a 110' tunnel wash, two high-pressure touchless washes, and two self-service bays to cater to a variety of customer needs. Additionally, we provide New Hampshire’s largest propane distribution through our convenient filling station.
Our Mission: At Royal T Carwash, our primary objective is customer satisfaction and delivering top-quality cleanliness for your vehicles.

As a family-owned business, we take great pride in involving our children in day-to-day operations, ensuring that our personal touch and family atmosphere enhance the experience for every customer.
We understand that car washing and detailing may not always top your to-do list, but we aim to change that perspective by providing an uplifting and enjoyable experience. We believe that taking care of your vehicle should be a highlight of your day, leaving you with a sense of satisfaction and pride when you drive away in a shiny, well-cared-for car.
At Royal T Carwash, we are committed to exceeding your expectations, ensuring that every vehicle leaves our facility looking its best.

3) Please explain your vision for the future of the company.
Our vision for the future is one of transformation, growth, and legacy. While we are committed to maintaining our car wash equipment at peak performance and continuously upgrading to meet the highest industry standards, we are also navigating a significant transition.
Over the next two years, our business will undergo a major redesign to accommodate the Exit 4A expansion. This project, aimed at supporting the economic development of Derry, presents both opportunities and challenges, most notably, the requirement to relinquish 57 feet of our current frontage. Despite this, we have invested substantial time and resources into reimagining our building and optimizing car flow to ensure we continue delivering exceptional car wash services to our community.
In addition to our physical transformation, we are also preparing for a generational transition. Over the past two years, we have been training our son-in-law, Kyle Copp, and our daughter, Kady, to step into ownership roles. As we pass the torch to the next generation, Brian and Laura will remain actively involved, ensuring a seamless transition while preserving the values of excellence and service that define our business.
Our commitment remains unwavering—to provide the best car wash experience while building a lasting legacy for the future.
4) Why should you be selected as the Primary Bank ‘Prime Time Business?
At Royal T Carwash, we care deeply about our business, our community, and treating both as family. Since Primary Bank entered the Derry area in 2020, we’ve felt a strong alignment with their values. We have appreciated the bank’s family-friendly, caring business practices, which mirror our own commitment to providing excellent service and fostering strong relationships within our community.
As a family-owned business, we believe in supporting our local area, and Primary Bank has been an integral part of our success. We're proud to have transitioned our financial business into their hands, and we look forward to continuing to grow together. Their values of service and community resonate deeply with us, and we are grateful for their partnership.
5) How would winning this commercial campaign help support the future growth of your business?
We would be excited to create a commercial campaign that tells our story and highlights the exciting developments in our community. A commercial would provide an excellent opportunity to showcase how we are adapting and investing in the future, while reinforcing our commitment to customer satisfaction and quality service.
With greater exposure, we can connect with more customers, expand our reach, and highlight the positive impact we have on the community. This campaign would also allow us to share our story of family ownership, legacy, and growth, helping us build stronger relationships with both existing and new customers. Ultimately, this visibility will support our long-term goals, ensuring that Royal T Carwash continues to thrive and contribute to the town's evolving landscape for years to come.
