Exceptional Owner Support
The owner’s proactive, hands-on approach and willingness to resolve issues leave a strong positive impression on customers.
He promptly got quarters and said my car wash would be free since I was a first time customer… he even washed my car for me.
The owner is a stand up guy… he's always gotten back to me and straightened out the issue.

Customers frequently encounter broken vacuums, soap dispensers, hoses and coin machines leading to lost money and frustration.
"Of the 6 vacuums only one worked. Machines eat your money and then don't turn on. Trash everywhere. Horrible upkeep!"
"3 out 4 vac machines were out of order, machines to purchase products were all empty, hose from one of the scrub brushes was loose and spraying water in opposite direction. But the price was good."

### Unbeatable Value: $6 for 30 Minutes of Service
In today’s world, few things feel as good as a fresh, sparkling car—especially when you don’t have to break the bank. At Eleventh Street Car Wash, we deliver a flat rate of just six dollars for thirty minutes of unlimited wash time. Whether you’re in for a quick rinse or a thorough scrub, you’re in control of how long you spend under the sprayers and scrub brushes. Customers consistently point to this headline-grabbing price as a primary reason they keep coming back: “Where else can you get that much time at a carwash for that little money?”
### Convenient Payment Options
Gone are the days of scrambling for quarters. We heard your feedback—and took action. Our new debit-card payment system means you can swipe and wash in seconds. Of course, coin and token machines are still available for those who prefer them. By expanding our payment options, we’ve eliminated one of the biggest friction points our guests used to face. As one reviewer put it, “They got better with the paying stuff now—you can use your debit card. 👍👍”
### Shine with Our Wax & Gloss Finish
Don’t just settle for clean—go for gleaming. Our signature wax/gloss feature at the end of every wash cycle adds a protective layer and a brilliant shine that turns heads. Whether you’re prepping for a weekend road trip or just want your daily driver to look its best, the wax gloss is a small extra that delivers big results. “I like that wax gloss option at the end,” raves a loyal customer, “it does work—thank the Gods.”

### A Clean, Inviting Environment
Your feedback drives our improvements. We know that trash, cluttered hoses, or broken vacuums can turn a quick wash into a frustrating chore. That’s why we’ve doubled down on regular maintenance and daily site checks. From clearing litter and dirty diapers to ensuring that our scrub brushes and soap dispensers stay in top condition, we’re committed to creating a welcoming atmosphere for every guest. While no car wash is perfect, our proactive upkeep means you’re far less likely to encounter the “machines eating your money” or “hoses spraying in the wrong direction” that some other facilities allow to linger.
### Smooth Traffic Flow & Bay Management
Nobody likes noise and confusion while they wash their car. Although some customers once struggled with unclear bay signage or congested lanes, we’ve responded by adding new directional markers and bay-number signs. You’ll now find a straightforward path from entrance to exit, minimizing wait times and traffic jams. We believe a well-organized layout helps everyone—no more cars facing the wrong way or surprise backups at peak hours.

Eleventh Street Car Wash is more than soap and water—it’s a local gathering place. We encourage respectful behavior and moderate music volumes so that everyone can enjoy a stress-free clean.
