    Hands down the best automotive detailing center in the area. We've had our cars ceramic coated, window tinted, and regularly have them hand washed. We're so glad they implemented the loyalty program that offers a free birthday wash!

    Hands down the best car wash and detail spot in Bergen county! I have been a long time customer since being recommended to try here with owning a larger vehicle. They do a phenomenal hand wash with spray wax and clean the interior of your car and all of the floor mats for a very reasonable price based off the size of your vehicle. The staff here are extremely friendly and careful with each car. I have never had an issue with a wash here as my car comes out looking brand new every time. They detail my one suv every year and I swear it makes the vehicle look better than new and it's helped to preserve my car's paint as well. The inside of the wash is great with a customer lounge for you to wait as the lines can get pretty long once the nicer weather begins. Anthony and his team are phenomenal and extremely personable. Not sure how there are any negative reviews here, because anytime I've had an issue and called back they immediately are willing and helpful to resolve any problem that could've happened.

    I tried out this place for the first time today, as I usually hand wash all of my vehicles and I am extremely picky. Upon pulling in, I noticed we were the eighth car in line, but things moved quickly. I was extremely impressed with the method in which this car wash functioned. Very smooth, very efficient, and extremely professional. On this particular day, I brought in my wife's Jeep Wrangler Willys that we recently purchased, and was charged a very fair price of somewhere around $44 for exterior and interior. I noticed a few Ferrari's in line behind me which definitely eased my mind a bit as to whether or not they were going to do a good job. Needless to say, the Jeep came out beautiful and I will definitely be coming back to APC. In particular, I enjoyed the canister style gloss spray used over the wheels at the very end. A very nice touch to an extremely well done hand wash.

    I've been bringing my cars to APC about 4 years now, driving over from Brooklyn typically on a Saturday or Sunday morning. The wait is never too long, but I can appreciate the queue when there is one--they take their time to do the job right which can't be said for other hand car washes I've been to. From the simple maintenance wash to their hand wax, their pride and level of service is second to none, not in New York nor New Jersey. I bring my cars (C7 Z51 & C7 Z06) and my wife's (CRV) and I've never experienced any discrepancies in excellence and care. Highly recommended.

    The gold standard of car washes and detailing but you will pay dearly. You will instantly know you are not at a run of the mill car wash when you pull up and see a dozen or more exotic cars getting some type of treatment at the facility along side the regular ones...Porsches, Ferraris, Lambos, Rolls Royce. The hand car wash is impeccable and so are the detailing services. Car comes out immaculate every time. I have no doubt they are using top grade products and employed skilled techs. Highly recommend but be prepared that prices reflect the level of service but well worth it if you care about your car. Avoid weekends as the waits can be long. My last detail on my black paint resolved most of the swirls and had the panels looking like a mirror. Highly recommend.

    Anthony and his team at APC were beyond amazing. They picked up my new BMW from the dealership with their enclosed trailer and took it to their shop. They applied full PPF and Ceramic coating. Absolutely amazing quality of work. Would highly recommend them for your vehicle. If you are looking for the best work, APC has you covered. Thank you Anthony and team. I'll be sending all my business your direction.

    I have been having them clean and detail all of our household cars for over 3 years, We are never disappointed in the results or the interaction with the employees. Everyone is a professional and the cars are always done right. Thank you Anthony and crew for the finest vehicle care around! STEVE S. Bloomingdale NJ

    Waiting to get this thing squeaky clean

    Car was disgusting and I usually wash it myself Because I've given up on going to hand washes. The main reason this place deserves 5 stars is the level of detail ESPECIALLY THE RIMS, they not only get the deep Inner dish area and the spokes but after it's being dried they put the gloves on and go all the way back in. For the interior cleaning it's exceptional as well they use the air compressor blower and a vacuum to get any stubborn dust particles. Now they say Rome wasn't built in a day and this is very true , takes a while from when you first Get in line , but when you see how your car comes out you'll be glad you waited. Price is moderate but if you compare it to other local car washes you're getting a way better bang for your buck . Thanks guys for the amazing service and friendly

    LONG REVIEW ALERT FOR REAL ONES THAT CARE ABOUT THEIR CARS AND DONT CARE FOR OVER DRAMATIC BULLSHIT YELP REVIEWS BUT ONLY FACTS I normally don't do Yelp reviews but I'm putting this out there for anyone that's meticulous as I am in terms of washing and detailing your personal vehicle. I brought a 2019 Subaru XV to them earlier this month on a sunny Sunday morning. The car was washed once by New Providence Hand Car wash (amazing place, always top notch in the years I've been going, but just been seeing DRAMATIC price increases which made me steer elsewhere) and had been maintaining it since by myself since. I brought this car to APC on recommendation by my sister who brought her 19' Toyota 4 runner. She claims it was immaculate and comparable to New Providence so I decided to take the 50 minute drive up. I paid about $40(?) for the wash with spray wax. Cool thing about the facility is that you get to watch the process unfold via windows. On the surface I couldn't see much abuse being done to the vehicle, the interior was vacuumed and wiped down quick, mats done, and the whole nine. It then entered stage 2 where the exterior was washed inside their garage. No issues so far from what the eye could see. Garage wash happened fairly quick and there's a few key things I noticed that felt abit odd, but I didn't challenge nor MAKE A SCENE cause that's not my style. #1. - For anyone that owns a foam cannon using a pressure washer you know that the foam comes out in huge quantity and suds the entire car. This is meant to break down the dirt aggressively before the hand wash. The foam or "bubbles" emitted by their power wash cannon was extremely weak - for me this was a potential sign that the solution was diluted heavily to save resources maybe, but eh. It was $40 so I understand. I assumed what makes up for this is their attention to running the mits and getting all the dirt off the exterior. Let's proceed. #2. - They used a broom for the roof of the car. The same was done for a Porsche Cayenne in front of me. I understand SUVs can be tough - but isn't this a hand car wash? This is subjective though given that I wasn't able to see the nature of the bristles nor have I examined the roof for swirl marks. But if the bristles weren't a rubberized or soft material then I'm not too sure what the rationale or explanation is here... #3 - Upon hand drying of the vehicle and finishing touches and "spray wax" I noticed a huge black smudge on the driver side door. I thought it was a SCUFF given that the wash AND the hand spray wax application didn't remove. Again, didn't make a scene cause that's not my style. Upon further examination when I returned home - I hit it with some Chemical Guys V7 and some elbow grease and it was GONE. What a joke. Very upset about that detail being missed. I wish I took pictures of before and after. Upon entering the car it didn't have that clean feeling. The cup holders were still sticky and crumbs were in there and other places. The windows had smudges on the edges indicating that they were ONLY cleaned about 90% of the way, missing the detail of going straight to the edge. Lame. See some pictures below with all the crumbs left over. I wish I took pictures of the cup holder and dust everywhere as well as the windows. But I was so angry that I just got in the zone of cleaning it myself and getting it right! Chemical Guys all purpose cleaner for the win! Now I'm not here to bash but it just surprises me this has 5 stars across the board. Maybe it's because my choice of wearing a bape shoulder bag vs a Louis Vuitton one was an issue and I wasn't to be taken seriously? For $40 I don't think paying the "APC" wash for $65 as advertised on their website would make much difference. Case and point, I'm not angry. I just want to shed light on this place for those who actually meticulously look at their cars post wash and have a general understanding of detailing because you PUT THE EFFORT IN yourself. This was my second and only choice vs New Providence car wash but they have their flaws too, and for $40 vs $100 I can't be too upset. Lesson learned - the level of detail and careful attention you want for your car will only be accomplished by yourself. I'll be detailing my cars from now on. Just sucks I couldn't take more pictures of the issues as I was more invested in GETTING IT RIGHT versus complaining and causing a huge deal. Thanks for reading! And if management chimes in, feel free. We can hash out the details and have a civil conversation, I'm a genuinely pleasant guy.

They use quality supplies, the attention to detail of their service is a great value for the price, and if you've got a specific service you need or something that needs extra attention, those folks are more than happy to handle special requests. Plus, the view out back is pretty. Highly recommended.

    Took my new black 2025 5 series there for a wash. I'll…read moreprefix this review by saying the intent is constructive feedback, not bashing. I would like to see this place improve. 1. The rinse - no issues there, decent job 2. The actual wash - somewhat sloppy. Had to point the crew to a missed square foot spot on a roof. It was untouched meaning if there was significant amount of dirt the particles would have been dragged across the paint causing scratches. On black car it means a paint correction would have to be done after the wash and that's additional time, cost and effort. As I was watching the process and asked the crew to address it, no issues, they washed it. But...I don't have to babysit the process. 3. The rubber mats from other cars are being cleaned right next to the car that's in the wash. They use a pressure washer on the rubber mats and for some reason they aim in the direction of the car that's being washed 4 feet away. Blasting dirt, rocks and other garbage out of the rubber mats right onto the car paint. Why would you do that? That's just lack of training and lack of care. Big problem as far I'm concerned. I don't want rocks and dirt flying at high speeds hitting the side of my car. See picture. 4. Drying - few guys use same towels or towels that are not properly washed and you end up with grease and oils on paint. Had to ask them to go over it once more using fresh towels Take this feedback guys and improve your process. Nothing out of the ordinary here just use care and common sense. Customers who come there for a hand wash love their cars. If I didn't care about mine I'd be taking it to an automatic car wash for $12. But since you're charging $30 just for exterior wash I expect quality that matches the price. Hope to see you address these issues as I definitely want to be back for a nice hand car wash.
