7 Flags Car Wash

This self car wash is clean, well maintained. I drive 10 miles plus to use this location. Give them a try!

I come to this car wash often. The maintenance man here seems to be a bit biased towards Asians or maybe just women. When I asked a question he looked at me like I was intruding on his day. Needless to say I had to ask him several questions and even apologized for being a pain and yet still he was annoying and angry to the point I didn’t even finish and just left!

$ 5 for 20min? Best bang for your buck! You have to be quick though as you cant spend too long on scrubbing or cleaning your wheels. I love this place, it was very clean (no mud or whatever on the floor) and very spacious.
I love the high pressure water, it removes the dirt quickly! I brought my own bucket and sponge for the soaping process. I really liked that there was a spot free rinse here, the other one I went to didn’t have that option. That option alone would make me want to come here even on a weekend.

Read the only 1 Star Review & think the person who did not realize the up to 20 minute car wash for $ 5.00 was only good Monday thru Friday may have been angry with themself? Also, while there’s usually no need for assistance, the fellow who cleans & oversees the business has been there the last two times I’ve used the wash. Enough time that I’m done before the time elapsed & plenty of soap & strong rinse spray. Plenty of time to use the brush as well. How could the 1 Star person have missed the Mon-​Fri sign? Look at the huge one on the fence you can’t miss as you drive in, never mind the one they photographed on the wall of every stall! Great do-​it-​yourself wash, especially during the week. (If the Large Red Monday thru Friday image on the far left side of my photo doesn’t show please tap the photo to enlarge. Don’t see how you can miss the notice.)

I was super excited when i first saw the sign that says $ 5 for carwash 20 min pr car. Didn’t see smaller print until i drove in and saw that it is only mon thru friday. I figured O’well. I put in a $ 5 bill in coin machine then put all coins in actual wash asumming it would give me more then 3.5 min my fault was not paying attention. I pd 5 dollors for 3.5 min car was all soaped up had to hurry in my purse looking for change to add more money to machine before car dried. Hot outside. So i paid 7 bucks for a 7 min car wash. Not happy no one to help me either! :(Soooo is it really wash all you want?

I hate taking my car thru those gas-​station car washes. They seem like a good deal, offering $ 1 off if you get so many gallons of gas, but they often miss spots and do a crappy job. Hand-​wash locations tend to charge more than I can afford to pay though. So a self-​service car wash like this is my favorite place to go to clean my car.
For $ 5 (Monday — Friday) I can take my time washing my car, and do the job right. Yes, it’s work I have to do myself here, but I’d rather do it myself and have it done well than drive thru some dinky place at the gas station and pay the same amount to wind up disappointed with the result.
For an extra $ 2, I get 6 minutes to vacuum my car inside and out. Being that I have a dog, that’s also a must. 6 minutes gives me enough time to adjust the seats as I go, and get the interior looking clean and dust/​dirt/​hair-​free. I always pack a lint-​roller too, just in case there’s anything left behind, but overall the vacuums there do a great job.
For the $ 7 and 20 – 25 minutes it winds up taking from me every 2 weeks to do this, it’s well worth it. I like driving a car that is clean inside and out, and don’t mind spending a weeknight after work twice a month to make that happen.

I feel compelled to write a review of this place, since it was my FIRST time at a self wash kind of place, and because my experience was better than I anticipated.
Before even going, I suggest you come prepared (unlike me) and bring drying rags and Windex. They do sell them there, but why when you know you have them at home?
This place is open 24/​7, but the best days to go is M-​F because they have a special of 20 minutes wash /​$ 5.00 (it’s more expensive on weekends, not sure exactly how much). I think it’s best to have exact change because when I went, the change machine was broken and the only thing you can get is tokens. $ 1 = 1 token.
So you get in there, park your car, drop in your tokens. A timer pops up that starts counting down your time. Use the turn knob to select which mode you want: rinse, soap, wax, conditioner which all comes out of the spray «wand». I think the only thing that does not come out of the wand is the brush, which when you select it, foams out suds. Does this even make sense? I hope it does.
Anyway, it’s kinda fun racing against the clock, and when you’re done rinse, soap, brush, rinse, wax, rinse — then drive your car to the next station where you can add fragrance, vacuum, soap your carpet. I only did the vacuum which cost $ ¹⁄₃ minutes. Remember, there is no ‘drying’ gadgets, so this is where you can dry your car off with those rags you brought (wink wink)
Bonus — the man that works there is SOOoo friendly. Totally walked this newbie through the process.
Who knew that washing your car could be so much fun: P

I was never a fan of washing my own car — always went through a car wash but since this is in the area, I kinda had no other choice. The place is awesome and by far the only place that I go to wash my car the way I want to.
There are vacuums in the front and in the back. In the middle are the car washing areas. You get 3 minutes of assume vacuum work for $ 1.00! And for $ 5.00 20 minutes of washing your car with choices like, rinse, soap spray, soap brush, light rinse, wax, engine and tire cleaner and a color coat protector (which is my favorite).
This place doesn’t get to packed during the week days (mornings or late evenings) or on raining/​cold days but on weekends it gets pretty busy or on hott days as well. But everyone is pretty good about not taking forever washing their car.
There is always a guy there walking around to make sure people aren’t taking forever, clearing out the trash, making sure everything works right and plays decent music on the radio.
When and if something is broken they are pretty good about fixing it. They also have towels, air fresheners, rags, and window cleaners that you can buy for your car. This place is open ²⁴⁄₇ so if you want to come an wash your at 3am — you can!
This place the best!

Coin operated car washes are either: I’ll never stop there, the car will have to stay dirty, or this will be an okay place to stop.
5 stars for being able to wash a car for 20 min. for $ 5.00 on weekdays
4 stars for no one wandering around trying to sell me something
5 + stars for the man who is always there cleaning.
5 there are no overflowing garbage cans
3 stars for average suction vacuums

A great place to stop and empty all the trash form your car. For 4 quarters you get 3 minutes of the vacuum.
