$5 Car Wash

Hi. It was my first visit today and have a question for management and cannot locate their phone number. Can anybody help? Thanks!

Just visited for the first time and love the concept and THE PRICE. Being able to purchase one time or a monthly pass is great. Wasn’t busy at 7am, but I can imagine it will get busy on the weekends.
I will be back!

Maybe a 2 star if I had only paid for the $ 5 wash, but I splurged since it was my first car wash for my new car. The $ 20 ‘managers special’ isn’t worth it, car still had soap suds, tires were not shiny, nor was the car (which are part of the special), still had dirt and grime on the windows, and was supposed to be dried which I ended up having to do myself with the rag they give you. Had to clean all my rims because they were still dirty. I’ve had the car for less than a month, wasn’t even that dirty just needed a nice washing after some of the rain we’ve had. Not worth it to upgrade! Very disappointed!

$ 5 for a quick car wash and free vacuums can’t beat that. My car hadn’t been washed in weeks and not only was it dirty from the outside the floor had sand. I paid for the basic wash. The touch screen machine was a bit slow and it took a couple of tries before it noticed what I was selecting. The machine takes cash or credit cards. Also when you pull up there was an attendant that guides you into the car wash. There were plenty of vacuums and they tell you to use for 5 minutes. They also have a floor mat cleaning machine but it says no rubber mats and mine are rubber mats. Boooo.
This car wash was very clean no over flowing trash cans. The fact that they had attendant’s supervising the area probably keeps alot of non paying customers just trying to use the vacuums out. There was no questionable people lurking around so it felt safe.

Tried this wash because I wanted to do a quick drive thru, my car was super spotted from recent rain. The $ 5 is for a basic wash and then of course it goes to $ 10 for the rim and tire wash Well after all was said and done my car still had all the smashed bugs and crap stuck to it and all four rims were still all black Definitely NEVER going there again. What a waste.

This place was absolutely incredible! Though it starts at 5 $, there are several options. Having just driven across the country in a white car, I was in dire need of a car wash — I’ve never seen so many bugs on a car in my life. Given this, I opted for one of the nicer washes with «bug removal». After going through the machine, I pulled over at the vacuums to check it out. Though most of my car looked shiny and new, there were still some bugs. Noting that my fiancé and I were examining the car looking unhappy, an attendant came over and offered to let us go through again for free in order to ensure that all the bugs were removed. Before we went through for round two, he got out a pressure washer and spent several mins handwashing to make sure they all came out. WHAT INCREDIBLE SERVICE. I’ll never go anywhere else.

I have been to many drive through car washers in my day and this place takes the cake! Two lanes for fast service and a base price of $ 5 can’t be beat. Everything is top of the line and instead of the usual two, quarter only vacuums there are 10 free vacuums with hoses on both sides of the car and a floor mat cleaner. Would recommend this to everybody. Thanks $ 5 car wash!

My new favorite car wash! Fast, cheap, and easy. The guys who work there are helpful, nice, and friendly. Definitely will be a repeat customer! They do a much better job than most the car washes that you end up paying more money for. Love the vending machine that holds leather cleaner, car freshener, micro fiber towels and much more! Love this place!

If you’re looking for a quick wash, this is it. I came here for the first time today. Didn’t know how this worked or what to expect. The best part is the gentleman who stands at the entrance to help with your transaction. I told him what I wanted, then handed him my credit card, and he gave me a receipt. Took 60 seconds versus 3 minutes of me trying to figure the transaction machine out.
The free vacuums are great. You come right out of the wash and park in a spot with access to vacuums on both sides of your car. They have signs that ask you limit your vacuuming to 5 minutes if there is a queue but there are about 15 spots so there is bound to be an opening for you.
Oh, one last thing that caught my eye was that their sign says they recycle water. THANK YOU for that.

I’m already addicted to this place. Although there are a slew of drive thru car washes within a mile radius of this place, I’ll be coming here from now on. 1) it’s only $ 5 where as the gas station washes start at $ 8. 2) free vaccum where the time is not limited. I didn’t feel rushed and took my time cleaning the interior of my car. 3) complimentary wipe and air Freshener. Granted they weren’t the best, it still did the job in between major detailing jobs 4) you can pay $ 14 for a months worth of unlimited car washes. I don’t wash my car THAT much but I know people that would totally take advantage of such a good deal.
My car’s gonna be looking spiffy all summer.

I have to say that this corner that used to house a used car lot and Smog Squad business has now blossomed into a $ 5 CAR WASH! With free vacuums! I left town in late May and I could tell that something was being put into the once empty lot but had no idea it would be ANOTHER car wash for the peninsula!
Then, upon return in early June 2015, there it was: and colorful too! With bright yellow and red colors and impressively, even an attendant working at the scene. I cruised by and checked it out and the car wash is your standard drive-​thru usually found at Arco gas stations. But the hook is the free vacuum. There are 2 impressive rows of them ready to suck your yuck out of your ride.
Why I had to deduct 1 Unilocal STAR from $ 5 Gas Station is not because I do not appreciate an affordable car wash and free vacuum. I surely do. But the Point Loma peninsula is AWASH in car washes already. Let me count them for your benefit.
Right across the street from the $ 5 Car Wash is the 1) AM/​PM with a car wash. Next to that is the 2) Vend-​a-​Wash on Lytton St. On Midway and Rosecrans behind the Chevron gas station is 3) The Auto-​Scrubber. Further down Midway is 4) Midway Express car wash. 5) Genie Car Wash is around the corner on West Pt. Loma Blvd. We cannot forget that the 6) Arco on Sports Arena Blvd. also has a car wash. Last but not least is that other Rosecrans car wash, 7) The Rosecrans Car Wash, that also features a Dog Wash too! So this new 8) $ 5 Car Wash is pretty ballsy to open up ANOTHER automotive cleaning business, when already there is a glut of them. 8 in one zip code — 92 110 – is a few too many for me.
Perhaps demographic studies have shown that the prosperous people of the Point prefer their posh cars CLEAN and their plush interior carpets, freshly vacuumed. If that is the case, then the more… the merrier.
