Quite frankly, you're looking at a loosing proposition. You're considering a business that will make a maximum profit of $10 or $15 per oil change after the cost of the oil and filter are included, and that's simply not enough to sustain a viable business. Think twice and think hard about it.
I agree. You'll need to do a lot of oil changes to make it a "profitable" business. Pocket change, maybe, but that's about all I see coming out of a mobile oil change business.
OP- In any event, good luck!
