I am interested in opening a mobile carwash business in Coachella Valley. I intend to offer my services to Palm springs, Rancho Mirage, Cathedral City Palm Desert, Desert Hot springs, La Quinta, Thousand Palms, Indian Wells, and Indio. Below are a few questions on how to start such a business. I appreciate any good advice/suggestions that anyone can offer.



  1. What are the city and state laws regarding owning/operating a mobile carwash?



  1. Are multiple business licenses required to operate in multiple cities?



  1. What type of insurance is a mobile carwash owner/operator required to maintain?



  1. How do I apply for a business license? Is there an application fee?



  1. Are there fee waivers for military veterans?
