About Glanshjem & Mobile Car Washing

What is Glanshjem AS?

Glanshjem AS is a professional mobile car care company based in Tønsberg, Norway. We bring expert car washing, polishing, and detailing directly to your home, workplace, or any other location in Tønsberg and the surrounding Vestfold region — no queues, no driving to a car wash.

What is mobile car washing?

Mobile car washing means our team comes to you instead of you driving to us. We arrive at your chosen address with all professional equipment, eco-friendly cleaning products, and everything needed to deliver showroom-quality results. You can work, relax, or go about your day while your car is being cleaned.

Which areas do you serve?

We primarily serve Tønsberg and all surrounding neighbourhoods — including Nøtterøy, Tjøme, Stokke, Re, Sem, Borgheim, Barkåker, Råel, and Teie. We also cover Sandefjord. Call us on +47 929 90 817 to confirm if your address is within our service area.

What makes Glanshjem different from a regular car wash?

Three things: convenience, quality, and guarantee. We come to you — no driving, no queuing. We use industrial-grade equipment and professional products that deliver better results than a standard car wash machine. And we back our work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee — if you are not happy, we fix it for free.

Are you environmentally friendly?

Yes. We use biodegradable, eco-certified cleaning products. Mobile car washing also uses significantly less water than a traditional car wash tunnel, which greatly reduces environmental impact.

Do you serve English-speaking customers and expats?

Absolutely. We serve all customers in Tønsberg and the Vestfold region regardless of language. Our booking system at glanshjem.no/bestill is available online, and we are happy to assist in English by phone (+47 929 90 817) or email (post@glanshjem.no).

Do I need to be home when my car is washed?

What happens if my car is not clean enough after the wash?

Are your products safe for my car's paintwork?

Yes. We use only professional automotive products that are pH-neutral and safe for the car's paint, rubber, and plastic components. All products are biodegradable and eco-certified.

Why is hand washing better than a machine car wash?

Automatic car wash brushes cause micro-scratches and swirl marks in your paint over time. Glanshjem always uses hand washing techniques with professional microfibre cloths and pH-balanced products that protect the clear coat and give a better, longer-lasting finish.
