Great prices, friendly staff, good car wash and wax, blow dryer and the crew will wipe down your vehicle, vacuums and air are free and work good, trash cans also a bathroom.. If you like you can have full service. Phil is a professional detailer and if you have a problem area on you paint will work hard to get it looking right. All the detailers have a good attitude and remember please tip if you can.

This car wash doesn't provide detailing. They barely dry your car, they go very fast and missed so much of the car until you see a lots of wet spots. They do not clean your hubcaps. They say that that would cost extra even though you picked the most expensive wash service. The vacuum doesn't pick up you thing all the way.

Monthly pass is a good deal. If you want your car completely dry don’t forget to take a towel. They also have staff that could help you but don’t forget to tip them. Vacuum is free and it reaches front and back not like other places.

At College Plaza Express Carwash, we value all of our customers. Our staff is very friendly and always ready to assist. We have three affordable wash packages for you to choose from. Our cashiers are available to answer any questions you may have regarding the difference with each package prior to your purchase so please feel free to ask. We do accept both cash and card payments. Please take advantage of TWO of our special deals we currently have available. 1) Monthly Unlimited Plans: Highly recommended for our frequent or regular customers. ONE plan PER car. You will need a valid CA DL and a credit or debit card to start. The savings is unbelievable if you use it to the advantage. 2) Wash Package Reloadable Cards: Great for anytime use with any car. Makes a great gift as well. You actually pay for six (6) washes but you get ONE free. Total of seven (7) washes. What a deal! Keep the card and reload it when you need to. Our vacuums and air compressor hoses are always free to use for all of our patrons with each wash regardless of which wash package you purchase. Our car lot attendants do not do any detail work with the exception of a tire shine (only with proof of purchase) nor clean the interior of your car, however they can assist with hand-drying if needed. Due to Covid-19 regulations, please wear your mask. Student discounts available with a valid student ID. We look forward to doing business with you. So please stop by and visit us!

Amazing service!! First of all, not bad for a drive thru wash. A lot of junk got off my car with the initial wash. I hate when I go to a drive thru car wash for the convenience but then I suffer in terms of efficiency. College plaza is a happy medium!! And if the machine doesn’t get all the junk, an employee helps you clean it off by hand. When I was there it was Phillip, really nice guy. He had a positive attitude and just you know having nice people no matter the service you’re paying for can make a difference. Specially these days, I have been so limited in my contact with people. It’s nice that the the employees were respectful and kind. Even the lady who rang me up was also really Nice and professional. Quick, and there’s vacuums btw!!! Would recommend.

I like this for being close by and quick service. As usual, free vacuum and enough parking. I LIKE they manually wet my car before entering the wash system.

Great car wash. Great deals. And free vacuums! And the guy Philip that works there is really good at detailing. He really goes the extra mile. I would recommend this car wash over any car wash in Long Beach.

Very inexpensive automatic car wash. The prices range from $6-15. It's about 3-5mins in the car wash. And when you're done, there's a nice and helpful attendant that helps dry your car. The vacuums suck really good. Recommend this place for a quick wash.

Friendly guys. I totally made a jackass out of myself today because I couldn’t figure out how to leave my foot off the break and put the car on neutral. Hey, it was my first time. The employees were nice and patient. Thanks guys. I ordered the full service for 20 bucks and it is a total bargain. Phillip dried up my car and he did an impeccable job. My car is legit now. Will be back again and hopefully I will do a better job the second time around.

Fast, cheap, and friendly! The staff were very nice, and quickly helped me get in and out! Express car wash and detail services! Your car goes through the machine wash, and then is hand detailed by staff to clean the rims! There's free vacuum and air pressure too at the end! They are super nice so don't forget to tip! :)

Philip was very helpful. His passion for his job and customers really stand out. His professional is rare for this business. I’m glad I got his service today. Cleaned the wheels up nice and my car looks good.

I paid for the extra service to get the brake dust off of my wheels; I thought they had done this, even got a pretty decent tip together for him. And I should have double checked the tires, because, well, they kinda looked worse being only half done. Step it up guys! Especially when I've Paid for AND tipped on a service that SHOULD have been better. I'll give them another chance, so stand by .. ..

I always get the $6 wash. I've tried the $9 wash and it doesnt do anything more than the $6, so just stick to the basic wash, it's cheap and worth it. I also like that they have high pressure air hoses to use along with the vacuums.(for free) One of the employees that works in the lot is super helpful and friendly but the other guy EXPECTS a tip or he won't help you. For $6 and free vacuum you really can't beat it (best thing to do is buy your own armor all, any other things you use, have a few rags, and do it yourself.)

Basic wash. Not good quality but gets the dirty job done. Drove down from Utah and my car was covered in salt and gunk. Paid for the $12 wash which is their most complete option and most of it got off. Still had to get out and do a bit of wiping down myself.

Came here to kill time and I had a dirty car. It was to cold to use the self car wash so I came here and would come back again. I pulled up the first guy was super nice and informative. Fast forward I get the car wash. And I vacuum the floors I didn’t realize I my wallet was I my lap and it feel out the car. A few minutes later Philip comes back to my car and I was confuse. I roll my window down and Philip says this was on the ground. I had $2000 on me and it was all there. Great car wash and honest people.

Nothing short of excellent. Typically I prefer the self wash because they tend to be a better value, but they really go above & beyond. Phillip is an ALL-STAR— went out of his way to treat my car like it was his own, dry, wax & even took care of some road grime! 10/5 stars.
