    BUYER BEWARE!!! This Carwash has a pattern of customer complaints of car damage while the owner completely denting responsibility! Aside from the multiple complaints of rudeness from the lady at the front desk. I've experienced the same when they damaged a wheel and they would not take responsibility even with video proof.

    Been coming here for 15 years, every time I drop my car off I do a video walk around to ensure the condition of my car before they take it. They scuffed the wheel on my car, I have video to prove what it looked like before and after. After showing the lady the OBVIOUS scuff as shown in the pictures, she kept saying she didn't see anything there, BLATANTLY lying to avoid any liability and just walked away She also refused to go back and review her camera footage to see how my car was handled. This is a blatant disrespect for peoples property I have video proof and pictures.

    It a great wash for the price. You do have to ask for the air freshener even if your wash includes it, or else they just won't put one in. The staff is friendly and the indoor office is clean. They have both outdoor and indoor waiting areas

    If you care anything about your vehicle DO NOT COME HERE!!! I came for an oil change and car wash and vac. Walked out with a non vacuum jeep and scratches in my drivers side window. All they did was wipe down my windows. $90 and the inside is still a mess and new window scratches. Careless business!!!

    TERRIBLE! Scratched the he'll out of the hood of my car. NEVER will I ever return.

    Horrible. Scratched the HELL out of the hood of my car. Will never return and don't recommend anybody else to either.

    First time customer here and I have got to say I think they did a pretty awesome job. For the price, you can't beat the wash and attention to detail when drying the vehicle.

    I happened to be in the area when I searched Yelp for a car wash. I chose Earthwash because of its…read morereviews. It's a quaint little car wash, with two sides for servicing, and the entire wash is the size of a Checkers restaurant. They have different levels of washes, and the most expensive is $10. You drive your car through the hall, sit and wait while it does its thing, and you pull out either on to the street or to the size, where there are some vacuums. There was a very friendly worker who helped me with the payment machine and discussed some details about the business. He also handed me a dashboard wet wipe, which is something you can use to clean the inside of your car while you wait. The vacuums are quarter operated. It's $1.50 for 5 minutes. I was looking around for a quarter changing machine, but I did not find one. Luckily I had enough for one session, and that's all I needed to do the floors of my car. The car was is brushless, which wasn't the best route to go with all of the pollen on my car. If your car is very dirty, I wouldn't recommend this wash. If you are here just for a maintenance wash, this is where you can go on the cheap. There is also a pressure washing station on the other side of the lot. I could have used that to wash my car, but I didn't have any more quarters on me. For the price, Earthwash is a nice place to clean your car. Don't expect it to cut through thick dirt, but it will give your vehicle a nice shine for a nice price.

From the greeters at the check in station, all the way to what they offer in the vacuum and wipe down area, it's just excellence! Even the customer bathroom is clean and always well stocked! I love how they offer two styles of vacuum wand, window and interior cleaner, an air gun for hard to get dirt or crumbs, and both a mat sink cleaning area AND an automatic mat washer machine. If you're looking for a car wash brand to call "yours", BubbleDown is the one! I know it's hard in this economy (I haven't been able to commit monthly myself and can only come as I'm able), but your car is worth it!

I've been coming here since it was called "Dolphin Xpress "(which opened JUST last year) I got one wash and my experience was sooo good, I decided to get a membership for unlimited washes. Pros: *Easy access going through the gate. There is scanner that scans the license plate so there is no need to process a code or payment. *A machine that cleans your floor Mats. *Cleaning supplies, towels, window cleaner, and interior cleaner. *Vacuums come with incredible suction. * Customer's service, they have associates all around in case you need anything. Cons: *Zero!! Overall, this car wash is a must-go-to for a premium wash for your ride!

I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I shouldn't have. I sat inside waiting for my oil to be changed for an hour and 45 minutes. Multiple times, the manager came inside to ask the cashier/clerk if they had heard back from the auto parts store because they needed a part for a car. When I asked the manager why it took so long for my car he claimed that the shield under the car was hard to get off. When I brought up the filter, he claims he had six of them and that he only called the auto parts store to refill his inventory. No apology, no mention of a discount. Just pushed me out the door without ever recognizing their fault/error. I will never go there again.

I was charged for a membership I never agreed to, and they still denied my refund. I went in for a simple $15 car wash on the 21st of last month. The attendant offered me "3 washes for $20," which sounded like a good deal, so I agreed. After he ran my card, I asked if it was a recurring payment--only then did he admit that yes, it was a monthly membership. I immediately told him I never agreed to that and wanted it canceled. He said I'd have to come back within three days because he couldn't cancel it himself. I returned the next afternoon, waited in line just to speak to someone, and explained what happened. She rushed me along but assured me she would cancel it so I wouldn't be charged. 2 days ago, I checked my bank account and saw a charge for $31.79. When I called corporate, the person on the phone told me the membership was canceled for next month but they were keeping the $31.79 because it "needed to be canceled three days before renewal." She refused to let me speak to a manager and wouldn't take a message. When I called back, she simply stopped answering, which makes me think their "corporate office" is basically one or two people. I went back to the car wash and spoke with the manager,-- Angela--- who happened to be the same woman who promised to cancel it. She claimed she had canceled it but still refused to refund me. She even showed me "my" initials on the screen, which were absolutely not mine. The attendant had initialed it himself, which is illegal. Although she listened, she didn't fix anything or offer any solution. I even suggested she call corporate herself, and she refused. So I did exactly what I told her I would do: I left this review, contacted the BBB, and reached out to my bank's fraud department.

The second one is after Causeway car wash buffed & waxed it for FOUR HOURS--not an easy job but absolutely well worth the $133 before tip that I paid.

On numerous occasions, I've paid for one wash but received a different one. The drying wheel rarely seems to work properly, and after one of my recent washes, my truck was left with significant swirl marks in the paint. The final incident was the last straw. I have a truck with a ladder rack that had been approved by the manager, and I had successfully gone through this wash more than 50 times without any issues. During my most recent visit, the employees incorrectly operated the wash. They failed to properly retract the overhead bar and also allowed the vehicle behind me to get within about two feet of my truck instead of maintaining a safe distance. As my truck continued through the wash, the overhead wash bar came down onto the bed of my truck, ripped my entire ladder rack off, damaged my truck, and completely destroyed the rack. Their response was simply that it "wasn't their fault." However, this incident was entirely preventable and was the direct result of employee error. It was the staff's responsibility to correctly retract the overhead equipment and properly space the vehicles before sending them through the wash. After the incident, I contacted corporate but never received a response. I was left with a damaged truck, a destroyed ladder rack, and no accountability from the company. As a result, I immediately canceled my membership. It's disappointing because this used to be a business I highly recommended.
