Reviews of The Car Wash Co.

Wsdrbj Jbrdsw

Nice car wash, have been going there for over 5 years. The area is really kept neat with all the traffic that go through there. I lost 50 cents in one of the machine, filled out the slip to have my 50 cents returned and not only did I receive the lost 50 cents; I also received an extra $1.00, I thought that was very nice and the right thing to do by Management.

Marsh Jones

Really nice self-service wash location. 50 cent Tuesday is a great deal. It's clean, the equipment is in good shape and the bill changer works.

Garland Jones

It wasn't crowded today on Friday to my surprise! Got in got out real quick today!👌 …

Tahsha LePage

$1 for a minute and a half. Straight forward self wash car wash. Change machine on site. Also takes cards with minimum $3 purchase.

Nick Sheridan

My favorite self service car wash. Great prices that get better on Tuesdays.

James Gretsch

Places usually really clean vacuums that are exceptional water pressure is great you don't want it Tuesday make sure to be ready to roll because they push him through there and you got to have a plan when you get there and stick with it because you don't want to tie up the production line

Jon McCarty

Good water pressure. Lot's of wash/degrease/wax options. Floor mat clamps on the wall. 1½ minutes for $1. $.50 on Tuesdays!Add 30 seconds per quarter if you add before time runs out. Accepts Credit cards for the wash. Didn't use this option but it is a nice option if you don't have cash or quarters. Coin machine on site. Vacuums available.

Doug Lucas

8 bays and the equipment worked great. I'm looking to return here often.

La tica Trailera

Is nice not too expensive, mostly on Tuesday 50 cents wash, if you know how to do it your car will look good for a few bucks

Rana Tyarks

Selfie time at the car wash! Fantastic job cleaning my Blk Beauty guys!

b n

great value priced self car wash. owner is very cool guy. stalls are usually pretty well maintained. it's the few inconsiderate messy washers who trashes the stalls, especially on 50 cent tuesdays.

Tommy Littlecreek

The car wash was great!! The system was straight forward and easy to operate, the wash was clean and modern, the price is very affordable about half as expensive as a standard drive thru gas station car wash , they accepted credit or cash which came in handy, and my car looked super when I finished and let me tell you, I’m no car wash expert lol. They had practical vending machine items like air fresheners, thick and fluffy drying towels, cleaning products and other useful items for like a $1 or $2. Great value and convenient. On top of all of this I had the pleasure of talking to and meeting the owner. He was helpful, kind and professional. I had run over a bottle of baby oil and was low key freaking out because it was causing smoke from under my car. I went online and frantically called about half a dozen car washes when I ended up calling Jeff, the owner of this wash. He eased my worries and concerns about my car catching fire lol. He helped me get directions to the closest car wash that he owned and operated. He told me he was doing his rounds and that he would be at this location and that if I wanted his help he would be there to help me out. I went to this car wash grateful it was open late, happy it accepted credit as payment and when I arrived I was impressed. Jeff was there, introduced himself and helped me with a quick car wash 101 tutorial. He was easy to chat with as I told him about my baby oil encounter and the meaning behind my vanity plate on my car. I highly recommend this self service car was to anyone who likes a clean car at a fair price who likes supporting local young entrepreneurship. Congratulations on all your accomplishments Jeff. You’re doing an amazing job and it shows. Thanks again for everything. I’ll be back. Every week.

Tom Riedel

Very nice and clean diy carwash. They are a little cheap with the soap compared to others.

Pafoua And After

My first time at a self serve car wash. It was a cool and fun experience. I didn’t do the washing the first time I went but I’ve been there twice since! Bring your own sponge and microfiber a though. I don’t ever trust the brushes at the washes :S

Raymond Spears

Has sprayers and enclosed 2 car port enclosed with doors. Also has smell good stuff vacuums, last but not least Tuesday's it's 50 cents for 5 minutes!

Kelly K

I really like this car wash, I have been coming here since about 2002. I like being able to wash my own vehicle at my own pace. What has gotten really annoying though is people walking around asking for money. It seems like this is the norm the last year or so. Also I have been having bad luck with the vacuums not working. I just quit trying to use them. Luckily there is a refund box in the little change room and they are good about refunding the money lost in the machines. Other than people asking for money people are friendly or just mind their own business. I will keep coming here since it is close and convenient. Tuesdays are my favorite day to visit!!!

Jake Kroll

Finally got a chance to try this place out since I've driven by it countless times. I always liked the idea of a self serve car wash and this is the only one in my area. It's super nice! It was my first time going to one of these so I wasted a little money trying to figure out what I was doing but it was worth it. Tons of settings on the wash wand and I loved how soapy I was able to get my car with the foam brush! Remember to bring your own towel!!! It was a little busy so next time I would probably go in the nighttime since it's open 24hrs, but if you're looking for a good place to wash your car that's also very cheap, check this place out!

Denis Yarah

Self car wash. Tuesday is still 50 cents..

Adam Yousef

I love coming here. I usually come at least four times a month (I have a problem I know.). I ran into the guy who takes care of the building and he's such a great guy. I usually spend $5 and that includes me getting an air freshener. This place is always clean which is nice, the equipment is always in working order. I also really like being able to close the doors in the winter. Also on Tuesdays it's half price, so each dollar you put in gives you double time! Keep it up guys!

Justin Roussell

The functionality of the machines and the dispensers work really well good for a summer time wash. Really love and appreciate this place good for bigger vehicles like mine. Hope this was very helpful thanks!. .

JJ Brennan

I love the fact it’s 24 hrs and that the guy is super cool about paying you back if your money gets eaten up. He’s a really nice guy! Plus doesn’t mind if you do like Car work in the garages especially durning winter time. Car wash is cheap and offers many extras too, plus vacuums and shampooers!

R R

Great value self serve car wash! Just remember to bring your own drying towels, the ones in the vending machine left shreds of fiber all over my car.

El Cucuy

Been watching my vehicles here for 15 years prices of barely changed in that time affordable obviously they have their Tuesdays I believe it is or it's super cheap and get busy at times but if you plant it in time it out right it's a good spot

Rolf Johnson

Used to be 24-hour Car Wash but now closes at 11 p.m. water pressure coming out of the wand here maybe a little above average. Used to visit this car wash a lot more when it was open all night, usually can't wash the car during the day with my schedule. 24 hour access to the vacuum cleaners. Decent vacuums with plenty of suction.

Greg Eckes

Nice clean place to wash your car or truck. Never had any problem with th change machine and I like the fact that they don't use tokens but instead use Susan B Anthony dollar coins. The spray wands and brushes worked as the were supposed to but sometimes the vacuums were out of order.

J Mu

Great self-service car wash! -Reasonable price (washed my car with $2.75, though if you're fast you could technically wash for $1 as that is what it takes to start the water) -Has high-pressure (may seem expected, but I have experienced many washes with pathetic water pressure) -Takes quarters (too many washes use tokens) -Has an easy to see countdown timer (some washes have you guessing until the last minute just how much time is left) This is a no frills self-serve car wash, but does the job!

Xia Chang

It’s ok, I have a pressure washer at home, but it’s winter so decide to try this place. Came on a Tuesday for the .50 cent deal but boy, it was crowded. Went the next day instead, honest people should just invest in a pressure washer. Cost me $3 for each step, $1=2 min, if I remember it right there’s 5 step: pre soak, pre soap, soap, rinse, wax. Cost me $10 and I had to skip some step and rush through it. The holiday across cost $8 for basic wash. If u wash your car every week it’ll cost you $500-600 yearly, a pressure washer cost is $200-600.

Carzie

Tuesdays are great! You get two minutes of service for $0.50. I usually spray my car with hot soapy water, then give it a scrubbing with the foam brush and then rinse everything. It costs me a $1.50 and six minutes of my time.

kham yang

Used the first car wash on the first right. Was fine until the water stopped spraying. Couldn't do anything for 4 min while the time ran out. Had to put in extra money to rinse off that soap. Other than that I would come back but not use the same car wash on the right.

Daniel

I really want to love this place. Some of the bays are not fully functional. I ended up wasting a few dollars waiting for the soap to come out of the brushes in 2 different bays. It was just incredibly frustrating to have to jump around, moving the car mats just to see it not work again. Overall, it was a positive experience though. I love to be able to clean my car on my own.

Donovan Laborde

Great place to go for self serve car wash. Very powerful vacuum. Helpful vending machines for extra cleaning products for that detail clean. However I felt rushed by another customer behind me was being rude. If it wasn't for that it would have been 5 stars.

Sam M

This is a super nice self-serve or automatic car wash. The building is always clean, the equipment always working good, and the prices are great! The only down side is that they are always busy.

Kyle Koopman

Awesome do it yourself car wash! The pressure washers are very strong and a lot of different types of spray options... Very cheap to get a good clean on your car! Don't forget to bring a microfiber cloth to dry your car though!

John Vang

Good self service car wash. Wish there were more stalls.

Paul Hagen

How awesome to run your debit card and just use the time you need. I wish it was near the house but won't forget it! Super clean and everything works!

Slsclimbhgts Minneapolis

$.50 Tuesdays are an inexpensive way to keep windshields clean. Relatively short waits to get into wash bay. 8 wash spots.

theoneguy

Was half off day Tuesday great powerwashing and got vehicle pretty nice and clean by spray soap and wax. I dont trust the brushes

Jeff Copeland

**To the reviewer below: Why would this place not get 5 stars? What does a customer that was behind you and making you feel rushed have anything to do with the business itself, but I digress**? I cannot say enough great things about this car wash facility. Jeff the owner is an incredible guy and his attention to detail and to his customers needs is something that you absolutely do not see in most businesses these days, which is very refreshing. I have lived right up the street from this business for about 15 years with my wife. I come here very frequently and I can count literally on one hand in those years how many issues I have had. Jeff has been very responsive, very apologetic, and he has figured out a way to fix whatever was not working. You have my word and this is an absolute guarantee you will not find a better self car wash in Minnesota. I challenge all of you to find out for yourself the reason this business has over 79 national awards from the Peabody Radha madhava award to the promenade Court Hiram award and so on and so forth. Ok just kidding about the awards, but REALLY reward yourself with a clean car today. ***I am in no way related to the owner, I am not an employee, and I have no interest or holdings in this business. I am simply a long time customer that is VERY pleased with what this place offers***!

jay chaney

Favorite wash... Very clean, good amount of soap. Very reasonable price. Not many self washes left so I really APPRECIATE this place.

Bruce Byron

Its a good price for a quick wash.

Jimmy Gretsch

Very nice clean place with super towels to dry your car for $2 when most places charge your $1 for a paper when it's one of the things I like the most and they got engine and cleaner there with tires and a nice hot rinse

Jasmine Harding

2 years ago I would have said 5 stars. but the cleanliness and the equipment has gone down in the last few years. customers treat things like trash but it doesn't seem like someone is there often enough to clean and repair.

Gulwatanpreet Singh

The best place ever to wash your car, and the main attraction is it is still one dollar but it is well-maintained

Neal Myers

Ok they have some mud quite often but that's not the owners fault. Some people are just horrible and will wash off atv's and not even bother to try and get the mud in the drain area so it's frustrating more for them than me I bet.

C ShellTrack

The best way to get your vehicle completely clean and get the salt and elements out of the nooks and crannies is to do it yourself! The .50 Tuesdays are the best and an amazing deal!

Tim

Today it was clean...usally its not the cleanest. Today was a good day to be there, thats because the owners weren't there. Theyre pretty much rude everytime ive been there and they were there at the same time.

E L

Like to use this place especially in winter to spray car completely clean including the underside. I think Tuesdays are a discount day.

Qwero G

Good place to wash your own car, you just need to bring your tools to dry and wash there The water is there, but sometimes you need your own soap, because the machines sometimes dont have enough.

Tony case

Self car wash not too many around little spendy though

Shawnie

I go on Tuesdays cause it's only 50 cents for like 2 minutes instead of $1. I never have to wait for a bay either.

Penny Cloutier

My go to place to wash my car for cheap. Love it! Need more self service car washes around the cities

Cam Bam

Jed Plachecki

I love going to the carwash especially on Tuesdays it's fifty cents a car wash

Dylan Rybak

Excellent car wash.

Anthony Elliott

Sorta high prices outside of Tuesdays. Short wash period means you have to spend a lot more. I spent 6 dollars for a half a__ wash.

A Murphy

I am glad there are still self serve car washes like this and you can't go wrong with half price Tuesday!

John Reese

Absolutely the best DIY carwash! The best day to go is Tuesday. I believe it's half price all day.

Marie Garcia

I was disappointed by the vacuums. I just drove 1400 miles with my basset hound and my car was layered in dog hair. Vacuum didn’t have the power necessary to get the dog hair off my seats. 😢 …

Kerry Brendmoen

Very well Serviced Clean Car Wash with somebody on site to help if you need it and they're always cleaning one stall or another so the place stays pretty nice

Good place

Robyn pfeifer

The only thing about this place is you gotta make sure you go in and make sure there's someone in the garage people will sit out there ahead of you waiting for the garage door to open or when people leave they won't open the door, So you'll be sitting out there and the guy ahead of you never went in to check like last time we were sitting there so I went in and there was no one in the whole stall both of us could've went in and the guy just sat there so people please go check what's going on in the garages.
