Clean spaces, well maintained property. The equipment all functions well. I particularly like that the machines accept cards as well as quarters. There is a $5 minimum for card transactions, which gets you 8 minutes of time. Great spot for a quick car wash!

Overall good. I used the self wash this time, all selections worked fine. Brushes are a little old, but still work. Only cost $5. Worth it compared to Sams qash which is $20

Updated 1-28-25. Yes, the person is right; my final charge is $5. I gave it 4 stars because the way it was charged was a little confusing. I went today at 1:23 PM, and I used my credit card. It said $5 but charged me $10 at once. It gave 10 minutes which means $1 per minute. I tried to call you but your phone is not working.

This is the third time I’ve used the touch free car wash and I am choosing ultimate care wash, being charged $9.00 for that wash but the car wash system says it’s the deluxe which is $8.00. I’m being charged for a lesser wash. There is no phone number to reach the owner.

Just took my car here for the first time and I do not regret it. Car wash provides you with everything you need. Price is extremely affordable and multiple stations so there’s usually no wait time. Will be bringing my car here from now on!

Pulled up to use the vacuum to the left of the ride thru and it took my quarters and then they are stuck and won’t pop out of the bottom. I don’t have to have my money back but the number it says to call is not working to let someone know, not to do what I did.

My car was extremely dirty on a trip and I stopped by to wash it here. First, the card terminal didn't take my Amex. I was okay with it because I had a backup card. Then, when I turned the system on, the pressure washer attachment wasn't working. I had to pay $5 + 1 extra click (I haven't checked how much it charged me) for a waste. Really disappointing.

The fully automatic car wash is a good value when time is limited.

Edit: I appreciate the fast response but again, how am I supposed to get in touch with you for that refund, the listed number is “not available” and there is no listed email address. That information should be publicly available for these situations. I use this car wash all the time without issue. I’m writing this to get the attention of the owner and will amend when corrected. The automatic wash is not starting. It charged me $11 but never started up and while walking around attempting to find a number to call, I saw two other people go through having been charged but not washed. There used to be two places where numbers were placed to call and report issues but those are gone. The number listed online says it is not in service.

Only touchless wash I've been able to find in the Harrisburg area. $11 for a quick wash to hold you over between detailing is pretty fair to me. Also has spray bays for you to do a more thorough clean if you want, but would recommend bringing your own sponge/glove cleaner.

Best pricing in the greater charlotte area, 5 dollars for 10 minutes. Great water pressure and all chemicals worked

Do not waste your money on the automatic carwash. Your vehicle will come out just as dirty as it went in, total rip off!!!!

Terrible. Paid for an automatic wash and it said to enter and didn’t work. Tried pulling out and back in multiple times. Nobody to get a refund. Phone number doesn’t work either. Dont waste your time

Love this car wash. The bays all work good, sometimes the presoak is out but that’s about it. Tried the touchless wash for the first time today, needing an underbody wash after driving out in the snow. Was pleasantly surprised it cleaned everything including the door sills for the rate paid.

Avoid using credit card! Make sure you read the fine print - each card swipe will charge $5, as compared to $1.75 for a cycle - that's a $3.25 convenience fee for a $1.75 charge - yikes! Also, the vacuum cleaner just ate my coins and did not work. and the final cherry - the vacuum machine says - use the number in the front of the building if you need refunds, BUT, there was NO number! classic. well, I am certainly NOT going back.

Really impressed with how clean the area was. Typically there is garbage and misc junk at these types of operations. The time for the money is a good value. The equipment worked very well and there was plenty of chemicals properly mixed to get the van washed ...

The touch less car wash was only accepting cash. I put in $5 in took it but wouldn’t take anymore money. It wouldn’t give me any change back. I called the phone number and it was disconnected. Needless to say, I’m not very happy. I have no way to give you my private information. Do you have an email?

Perfect spot if you own a Tesla or any car where you want a true touchless wash. No brushes, no contact, and it actually does what it claims, which is hard to find. My car came out clean without worrying about swirls or paint damage. That said, this isn’t the prettiest car wash around. It’s very utilitarian, but it works, and that’s what matters. One downside is the vacuum area only takes quarters, which is pretty annoying in 2026. Card or tap-to-pay would be a big improvement. It does works for the car wash but not for any other service. Overall, if you care more about protecting your paint than curb appeal, this place gets the job done. Ideal for Tesla's and other sensitive finishes.

Really irritated. Came here just to wash dirt off my car or salt rather but my phone brush wasn't working and the tire cleaner did not work either. Try calling the phone number. The number says it's been disconnected. This is why it's sometimes better to use a credit card cuz you can dispute the charges for faulty service. Should have only took me maybe 5 to 7 minutes I put $5 worth of wash time in, only managed to get a presoak and rinse, you can see where there is a lot of Filth on my car from not being able to wash with the brush.
