South Florida Truck Services Center, Wash, Parts, Repair & Parking on 4.5 Acres

Full Editorial Writeup

This is a built-out, turn-key commercial truck services center in Palm Beach County, Florida, combining four revenue lines under one roof: a truck wash, a parts store, a repair center, and truck parking. It sits on roughly 4.5 acres along a major north-south travel corridor with an FDOT average daily traffic count of 18,400, which matters enormously for a facility that depends on capturing passing commercial trucks that need washing, servicing, parts, or a place to stage. The asking price of $4,750,000 includes the real estate, which is the bulk of the value given the 4.5-acre footprint in a land-constrained South Florida market.

The business does about $1,156,200 in annual revenue and $578,516 in reported cash flow, implying roughly a 50% cash flow margin, which is strong and consistent with an owner-operated facility where the real estate is owned rather than leased. The 8.21x headline multiple is misleading on its own because it is applied to cash flow while the price is loaded with real estate; the correct way to underwrite this is to separate the operating business EBITDA from the land and building value and comp each independently.

What makes this notable is scarcity. The seller frames it as rare to market in South Florida, and a multi-use commercial trucking site on a high-traffic corridor with parts, service, wash, and parking all co-located is genuinely hard to replicate given zoning, acreage, and permitting constraints. Truck maintenance and washing are non-discretionary operating costs for fleets and owner-operators, which gives the cash flow a defensive quality through a downturn.
