Harbor Blvd Car Wash

I just moved to a new location and this was the closest car wash place. When I got there, I wasn’t sure where to start. There weren’t any signs designating where the start point begins. I ended up driving into the wrong lane and had to reverse back. After that, I parked the car at the vacuum station. The prices were different from the advertisement on the webpage. The customer service, however, were pretty helpful. He realized it was my first time because he saw me drive into the wrong lane. He informed me of the benefits of each wash package. I chose the 2^nd package which includes vacuum, handwash, interior wax, tire wax, and hand dry. It was pretty pricey because I went on a weekend; about $ 21 on weekends and $ 17 on weekdays. The cashier actually signed me up for their membership card which entitles me to a free car wash after the 7^th one. After waiting about 40 minutes, from start to finish, I was actually satisfied with the washing. The only thing was that it took forever for them to dry the car. Nobody tended to drying my car right away.
The services were done accurately, but with the timing, I don’t recommend going here if you are in a rush.

I’ve been coming here for years. They used to be very thorough and I didn’t mind the wait. This last time, however, was more than disappointing. They ran my car through once. After waiting 20 minutes, an attendant finally starts wiping it down and detailing it. He stopped after a couple minutes and told one of his coworkers to run it through the wash again because it had bird poop on it still. So they ran the car though again. Another 15 minutes until the drying and detailing starts.
From start to finish, it took an hour and 20 minutes! This was just for a basic wash! I didn’t bother to check the car because I was in such a rush to leave. After coming home, I saw there were a lot of spots left (sap and bird poop). I had to wet a towel and put a little bit of elbow grease in to get those out.
Seriously, two runs through the car wash and over 25 minutes detailing and they still can’t clean it right. Sorry to say, I won’t be coming back anymore.

Been coming here for years and always been treated right. Came in today after just getting back from a trip to san fran, so my car was in need of a good wash considering all the bugs my front bumper had. I came in let them know about the bugs and they took their time making sure to get all the bugs out. Great job guys keep it up

I live in Anaheim and I still drive here once a week for a car wash! They’re always consistent and always do a great job! I love how my black Lexus ISF always look once it’s done! it’s worth the money! Remember, you get what you pay for! Plus I think now after every 7 washes, you get one free! Not bad.

I used to go to Metro because it was close to where I live, but the costumer service has become more and more shoody that it was just not worth it.
At Metro I voiced my dismay once again with staff when another costumer told me about Harbor car wash (his own car goes to Harbor, business car to Metro).
I have been to Harbor 5 times and except for once were I had to point out a not wiped off foot mark inside the door I had no problem ever. My car is clean staff is efficient. The reason I give them full 5 stars however has nothing to do with a clean car.
I had misplaced (thought lost) a $ 350 pair of sunglasses when I was out in Cochella a couple of weeks ago. I searched my car twice, had my husband search it — nothing. I figured the sunglasses lost for good and checked ebay for a replacement.
Yesterday I went to Habor car wash and as I was driving off I noticed a pair of sunglasses in the console — my sunglasses the ones I had thought gone for good. This tells me that they not only clean the inside diligently they are decent and honest. Now dont tell me this is how it should be — I had a iPod stolen at a car wash some years back.
As for the people that whine about upselling. Don’t be childish, every car wash does it. You just tell them, no thank you I just want my car washed. If you spend $ 50 bucks just because an attendant tells you this is what you need, clearly you’re not bright enough to be let lose in the world of sales.

10-​year customer. Unrivaled! When I occasionally stay and go elsewhere, I end up hating myself for making such mistake!

This car wash is so awesome I bring my car every 2 weeks here they vacuum my interior really good and hand wash it as well they dry it all around the exterior and the exterior they even wipe off when the open the trunk thy dry my rims and put this really good tire shine that stays on for like 2 weeks I always get the strawberry smell for the cent smell of my car the employs are very friendly good Customer service they have in the front desk so many car accessories they have !!! I love this car wash like I love my car I always keep my car clean. Don’t worry about bad review come in see for your self :) this car wash takes care of you and your vehicle :) !!! The best

Look, when I’m loyal — I’m pretty damn loyal. I had been going here for a little over 4 – 5 years because my mother was loyal to it at first. Every time I went, they suggested I pay 45 bucks for this or that, 50 for this or that. The last time I came in, it was because I was in dire need of removing the sprinkler water marks so this guy suggested I pay $ 55 dollars for this special wax crap that literally had my car looking the same way it would if I had gotten a regular wash, minus the water marks. Granted, the marks I needed were gone — but was it worth $ 50 bucks of my hard earned money?
I don’t think so.
Since then, I had been weary of going back because they should take care of their loyal customers better rather than scam them out of such a large sum of money. Sure, my fault for falling for it but I guess that’s what loyalty does until the trust is broken.

For the most part I leave with what I expect. The washes are not perfect, but well done. One thing I don’t like is that if I get there before others, my car doesn’t get washed before others. Overall a positive experience.

Paid $ 30 for a carwash and my car still have dusk all around my windows and others place. Very unhappy.

First time here.
Spent $ 35 + $ 5 tip, car still dirty /​:
Front bottom bumper still has bug kills…
Pointed it out to the guy wiping it down and he said that’s mosquitoes lol
Not even sure they applied wax to my car…
Probably not going to come back.
The only positive was it only took 30 mins.

Horrible customer service !!!
my car is still dirty !!!
they did not clean the window !!!
they did not vacuum the inside !!!
definitely will not come back ever again I just feel that I got ripped off

Very pleased with the interior shampoo wash and the awesome work on my wheels.
Spotless and couldnt imagine how clean it is. Before my rims were like muddy and now its shiny.
Inside is still polished after a day and floors were vacuumed so good theres no hint of any dirt or anything. The dashboard and middle area was very clean and everything was put back to where it was left. Highly recommend

Very solid car wash spot. I’ve been going here for over a year and they always do a decent job cleaning my car. They vacuum the inside, hand wash through the machine, and hand dry your car for you. Considering the price, it’s pretty cost effective to get your car washed here than doing it yourself. Especially during these drought conditions you’d probably get bad looks washing your car at home anyways.
On one occasion the guy drying my car didn’t give me the tire dressing when I paid for the #2. I tried to tell him but he didn’t speak English. Once someone else was able to tell him to do the tire dressing, he sloppily put it on and didn’t even properly spread it around the tire. I was pretty pissed because it took forever but I still left him a $ 1 tip. Generally I’ll leave at least $ 2 tip.

I usually come on Tuesdays because of their #2 car wash deal. It’s usually $ 19.99 for their #2, but if you go on Tuesdays it’s only $ 16.99. Also their #1 on Tuesdays are only $ 10.99! What a steal! And get cherry as your scent. Smells so good.
I really like this hand wash place is because they take their time on washing and detailing your car! They work really hard and do a really good job. Usually you see car wash places trying to finish washing and cleaning your car within 10 mins but they actually take like 30 mins to get everything nice and clean for you.

If you’re thinking about getting your car washed here, I urge you to consider the recent negative reviews and go elsewhere because this place is not what it used to be… I’ve been coming here for a few years now and used to be able to rely on them for a good job but I’m never coming back after my latest experience.
I came because I needed to get some water spots cleaned off after parking next to a sprinkler two days before. But I left with more water spots in a different area… how does that even happen?! The tire dressing was extremely sloppy, my car was still wet in several spots, they didn’t give me my air freshener, and window cleaning? Forget about it. They used to spend a good amount of time cleaning and wiping down my car but this time, everything was done within less than 15 minutes.
To top it off, they scraped the bottom of my car near the passenger door, leaving a pretty deep scratch that’s about 10 inches long!

I’ve been here twice now and have had a great experience both times. They’re cheaper than the spot down the street, but they do just as great a job! Try to go for their weekly specials. I usually just get the simple wash and vacuum and on Tuesdays they’re only $ 11! You can also buy 5 washes for $ 50 too. Don’t forget to ask for a stamp card to get a free wash after 9 washes.
The guys here had wash your car before it goes through the car wash for a spray down and quick air dry. They work fast and efficiently. The guy that dries the car does a great job going through all the nooks and crannies. I’ve been happy with all the washes I’ve had here! I’ll keep coming back when I’m in the area. Be prepared to wait though. This isn’t a super fast car wash, but I’m ok with that as long as my car comes out spotless.

I had a wonderful experience at Harbor Blvd Car Wash. I came here the day before the July 4^th holiday and expected it to be a lot more crowded than your normal day as everyone with a car was getting a bath before the holiday. When I arrived, there were about 4 lanes with 3 to 4 cars in each lane. At first, I was a bit concerned the wash would take a long time, but was pleasantly surprised how they manage to bath my car in a respectively amount of time given the circumstances. I settled for their #2 hand wash for $ 19. They did a good job washing the outer and cleaning the inside. In fact, I was very happy they were able to remove the sticky residue that I had on the inside of the front window. This made up for the air freshner that I believe they forgot. I would definitely come back.

This has been the worst car wash experience ever!
First, these so called professional didn’t shut my door all the way after they vacuum my car, so water ended up getting my rear passenger seat soaked through when it went in to get washed. Sure it could be dried which they offer to do but it doesn’t end there.
They some how managed to rip my mudflap off the car which also tore my bumper off. I simply fixed most of the damage by pushing the bumper back into the clip but it wasn’t the same since they cracked one of clip.
Just be warned these people aren’t professional and they don’t care about how your car is treated.

A nice and cheap place to get your shit cleaned inside the car.
my favorite is the 13.99 where they clean and vacuum the place. There are no complaints about this place. Its fast and effective. When you come in pay and make sure you keep the receipt. Then you can enjoy watching your car go inside the wash area by seating down in the massage chairs. Be warn cant sit on it if you dont pay because there is a beep sound that goes on. And you can go outside the patio and watch the workers vacuum and clean as you wait.
