Following continued monitoring of the slope on the northwestern edge of the property, and after meeting with the Town of Bethlehem, we’ve made the decision to temporarily close our Delmar location out of an abundance of caution.

To be clear, the wash tunnel and Jiffy Lube facility are not impacted. The area of concern is a small section of land furthest from the building, and there has been little to no movement observed over the last two years. Still, we believe this precautionary closure is the responsible step while new engineering evaluations and data are thoroughly reviewed.

Customers are being directed to nearby Hoffman Car Wash locations.

For the time being, the location’s Unlimited Wash Club Memberships have been temporarily paused; however, Members can reactivate their plans by washing at any Hoffman Car Wash Exterior or Full Service location.

We’ll continue to share updates as more information becomes available.

We’ll reopen for regular business hours on Tuesday, September 3.

From November 1 through 10, all $5.00 Ceramic Shield & Shine upgrades will be donated to the JDRF. This special event will be taking place at all 25 of our Exterior and Full Service locations.

JDRF is the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. Their mission is to improve lives today and tomorrow by accelerating life-changing breakthroughs to cure, prevent, and treat T1D and its complications.

“As part of our commitment to promote kindness and goodwill in the communities we serve, we are proud to support JDRF with this special event at Hoffman Car Wash. By practicing kindness and supporting a cause that helps so many people; we can make a positive impact and inspire others to do the same.” Tom Hoffman Jr, CEO Hoffman Car Wash.

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that strikes both children and adults suddenly. It has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle. There is nothing you can do to prevent it. And, at present, there is no cure.

JDRF works every day to change the reality of this disease for millions of people—and to prevent anyone else from ever knowing it—by funding research, advocating for government support of research and new therapies, ensuring new therapies come to market and are recommended by healthcare providers; and connecting, engaging, and educating the T1D community.

Every dollar that JDRF puts toward research comes from donations. So when you support JDRF with your time, talent, money, and even car wash upgrades, you make it possible to advance more research.

The event is part of Hoffman Car Wash’s “Practice Kindness” initiative to spread positivity and goodwill in the communities we serve. In the past year alone, Hoffman Car Wash supported Interfaith Partnership for the Homeless (IPH), Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), and the ALS Regional Center, among many other initiatives.

Practice Kindness

Hoffman Car Wash’s “Practice Kindness” initiative spreads positivity and goodwill in the communities we serve. By practicing kindness, we hope to make a positive impact and inspire others to do the same.

Hoffman Car Wash has a long-standing relationship, supporting Interfaith Partnership for the Homeless (IPH), Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), the American Red Cross, and the ALS Regional Center, among many others.

In addition to helping non-profit organizations, we host two food drives a year, a First Responders free wash event and a Veterans Day free wash event.

Hoffman Car Wash also supports many non-profits and youth organizations through its Helping Hands Fundraising program.

We’ll be sponsoring the annual Light the Night walk at Siena College in Loudonville, NY, on October 14, 2023, where we will join approximately 1 million people at 140 inspirational evening walks across the US and Canada, walking to end cancer. This annual walk celebrates, honors, and remembers those touched by cancer.

LLS is at the forefront of the fight to cure cancer. Compared to other blood cancer nonprofits, LLS is the largest funder of cutting-edge research to advance cures. We have invested nearly $1.6 billion in research. We are leaders in advancing breakthroughs in immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine. This research saves lives. These revolutionary new treatments originally discovered through blood cancer research are now being tested in clinical trials for other cancers.

At Light The Night, it is our aim to bring light to the darkness of cancer through research and cures. Light The Night is a series of fundraising campaigns benefiting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) funding of research to find blood cancer cures. We bring hope instead of despair by working to ensure access to treatments for all blood cancer patients. We bring communities together to celebrate those who are fighting the disease and to honor those we have lost.

Since 1949, the LLS has invested more than $1.6 billion in cancer research, funding nearly 200 current grants worldwide.

You can find out more about Light the Night and the Luekemia & Lymphoma Society at their website, lightthenight.org.
