Fuller's to remodel Orland Park carwash

By Bob Bong
Southland Savvy

Fuller’s Carwash at 15610 S. Harlem Ave. in Orland Park, formerly Classic Car Wash, will be closing in early to mid-June for remodeling. Fuller’s is adding a coin-operated car wash (the driver stays in the car while it is washed) to go along with the full wash and detailing service now available. Anyone who still has coupons issued by Classic Car Wash can use them until the carwash closes. Classic coupons will not be honored when the carwash reopens.
