Online booking system for mobile valeters
The simple booking system for mobile valeters.
Customers book the valet and the address arrives with it, and on Pro so does your charge for the miles. Deposits hold the big details, your round plans itself, and a rained-off day drags to a new one with everyone told.
- Reduce no-shows
- Set up in minutes
- Get more bookings
Free for 20 bookings a month. No card, no contract, no commission.
The round is the business
A day of driveways, planned by guesswork
Mobile valeting lives and dies by the round: where the jobs are, what each one takes, and what the weather does to all of it.
Where is the car?
A booking without an address is a message thread before every job, and a round you cannot plan until the night before.
Rain rewrites the diary
One wet morning and half the day needs moving. Rebooking four customers by text is an hour you are not being paid for.
A mini valet in a full valet slot
When every booking is 'a clean', the day cannot be planned. A maintenance wash and a full detail are not the same afternoon.
Try it
Book yourself in, the way your customers will.
Four taps on the phone, and watch the booking land in the diary beside it. That is all your customers see: no app, no account, no password to invent.

What comes with it
Everything FullDiary handles for mobile valeters.
Before they arrive
- The address, and the milesEvery booking arrives with the driveway you are heading to and a maps link. On Pro, your price per mile goes on it before they book.
- Services that size the dayMaintenance wash, mini valet, full valet, detail, each with its own time and price. Price options per vehicle size.
- Deposits on the big detailsProtect the half-day jobs with a deposit through your own Stripe account. Quick washes stay deposit-free.
- Reminders the day beforeBy email, and by text on Pro, with the time and the address. Customers move their own booking from the confirmation.
On the day
- Rained off? Drag the dayMove a booking to a dry slot with a drag. The customer is emailed and the reminder re-times itself.
- "On my way", one tapMessage the customer from the job. They see it on their booking page and reply into your inbox.
- Work done, on fileFill in the visit record from the diary card and it is there the next time the car comes round.
- A column for every vanEach valeter gets their own column, colour, hours and login.
After
- The monthly regular, on repeatSet a regular's valet to repeat every four weeks and the diary keeps it topped up.
- Finished jobs become invoicesOne click on the diary card turns the valet into a draft invoice with the customer and price filled in.
- The numbers, without a spreadsheetJobs in the book for the month, takings, deposits held and your busiest days.
Every feature above is live today, and because invoices and quotes are built in, they are on the same login. See every feature.
Messages
"On my way", without the phone number swap
Open the job, press Message, tap a quick reply. The customer sees it on their booking page with an email nudge, and their answer lands in your inbox with an unread count on your phone.
- Quick replies for on my way, running late and all done
- Their reply lands in your inbox, live
- Included on every plan, Free included
Travel charges
Get paid for the drive to every driveway
A customer twenty minutes away costs you fuel and time that one round the corner does not. On Pro, set your own price per mile after any free miles, and FullDiary works out the real driving distance to each address and puts the charge on the booking before the customer confirms.
- Your rate, your free miles, and the furthest you travel for online bookings
- On the booking page before they book, and on its own line in their email
- Change it, take it off or work it out again from the diary
Their side
Your page, on your customers' phones.
Your name, your services, your prices, in your colours. This is what opens when one of your customers taps the link in your bio or scans your QR card. No app, no account, booked in under a minute.
- Real times, not requests: slots come from the live diary's actual gaps
- Nothing to download and no password to invent
- Confirmation lands by email, with add-to-calendar and a link to move it

FAQs
Questions from mobile valeters, answered straight
What it costs, what your customers see, and how FullDiary fits the way mobile valeters actually work.
Something else on your mind? Ask a human.
Does it collect the customer's address when they book?
Yes. The valeting setup turns on 'ask for the customer's address' and the booking form requires it. The address shows on the appointment, in the confirmation emails and in your calendar entries, with a maps link on the diary card, so the round plans itself. A service's buffer time is your travel time between jobs.
Can I charge for the miles to each job?
Yes, on Pro. Under Your van, Booking rules, switch on Charge for travel and set your own price per mile, any free miles and the furthest you travel. FullDiary works out the real driving distance from where you set off to the customer's address, rounds the charge up to the next 10p and shows it on the booking page before they book. The miles are one way, so set your rate with the drive home in mind.
What happens when rain moves the day?
Drag the booking to its new slot in the diary. The customer gets an email about the move automatically, and any reminder re-times itself. Four reschedules is four drags, not four conversations.
Can customers pick the right valet size?
Yes. Your booking page lists each service with its price and how long it takes, so a full detail books a full detail's worth of your day. Price options per vehicle size sit under one service, each with its own price.
Can I invoice from the booking?
Yes. When a job is finished, one click on the diary card turns it into a draft invoice with the customer and the price already filled in. Invoices and quotes are part of FullDiary, on the same login.
Can a regular have the same slot every month?
Yes. Open their booking in the diary, press repeat, and pick every four weeks. The diary keeps the slot topped up ahead, on every plan including Free.
Is it really free to start?
Yes, and it is not a trial. Twenty bookings a month, with the booking page, the live diary and the QR card included, for as long as you like. No card, nothing expires, and there is never commission on bookings. Pro is 9.99 GBP a month a person, never more than 39.99 GBP, when you outgrow it.
Do my customers need an app?
No. Your booking page is a link. It opens in their browser, they pick a service and a time, and the confirmation lands by email with an add-to-calendar file. Nothing to install on either side, and no password for anyone to forget.
