The Record Vault

The Record Vault, located in the Hopewell Valley Car Wash, is a hidden gem of a record store. And what a cool concept! While I was waiting for my car to be detailed, I spent my time sifting through the diverse collection of albums, new and old. Picked up some jazz records I'm excited to take for a spin!

Yes, the record store is IN the car wash. They have a banner by the road, but no sign on the door, so it’s a little confusing. Plenty of parking. They have a used records room is $5 or 5 for $20, a long skinny room with new vinyl (where you can watch the cars being washed).

Definitely the coolest car wash I have ever had. My car was detailed while I shopped for records. Got to enjoy my coffee while I waited in the outdoor Adirondack chairs. Very cool spot. I’ll be back.

Great little hidden gem! Nice inventory that they rotate regularly, and most records are in good condition.
