League City, TX and apparently it is all over Texas at least. These people are outright swindling people by signing us up for recurring charges, even after being asked if this is recurring, they say "No". Don't try calling them, you won't make it to a human being. Just dispute it with your credit card to hopefully get the charges returned. You also have to go to their website and register, so that you can get them to turn your "active" plan to a "cancelled" plan. Wow, how are these people not in prison? read more

I don't get my car washed often, but I stopped at Blue Wave in November 2025. It was fine, the car was clean. My issue came a month later when I saw a charge from Blue Wave. Turns out the courteous employee signed me up for a monthly membership that I never asked for or signed up for. In fact, whenever they ask I always do "no, I just don't get my car washed enough to make it worth it". I called and emailed Blue Wave with no response. I can only assume they are doing this to other people, so buyer beware! read more

Haven't gone here in months because they signed me up for the monthly subscription without asking or anything, just started randomly getting charges. I came today because it's the closest to where I live. I get there at 07:30, and it's still not even open. And I can see two workers just sleeping in their cars. read more

One of my fav car washes!!! I think it's relatively new so I always get a good wash, and I love that all the vacuums are high quality. They also provide air blowers, hand towels, and windshield wiper fluid (haven't actually used it yet though lol). Best part is the price. Cheapest wash is about $10 and gives you what you need! They even have a monthly membership that is about $30 and comes with unlimited washes! So that's really useful if you clean your car more than once a month (or a great incentive if you want to start). read more

I should have checked yelp before making the poor decision to use Blue Wave Express. I bought a subscription with them and on my third wash their faulty wash completely broke off my mirror cover and scratched my passenger side door. The attendant had to go find it inside the wash bay. I took pictures, made a claim, and water weeks before they reached back out to me. It was their corporate management that claimed my year of truck had clip in cover and they were not at fault. That has got to be the most bogus excuse Ive heard. My clips were bent and broken and truck was scratched. I paid to have it fixed out of pocket and they took absolutely no responsibility. Do your self a favor, read these comments, and look at their star rating. There is a reason they have endless bad reviews. Pictures posted below. The ole "fAuLtY fAcToRy ClIpS". read more

I was signed up for a subscription without my permission, and when I tried to cancel, I was unsuccessful because they literally never answered the phone--even after waiting over 30 minutes. My bank issued a refund, but then BlueWave changed their name to force the charge through a third time. Never go here. They are thieves. read more

I am So upset with Bluewave Express Car Wash. I would not recommend this place. They have taken out money from my back account without my authorization, and i have tried to talk with them and asked them to put my money back because I never said they could take money out, and i have yet to be able to achieve that, when u call there number for customer service there is no one u can talk to and they put u on hold for unlimited time.I've tried to reach the corporate office and they don't have a number either. now I have to go with my bank and wait and get my new card and have to set up a new auto payments and it is very inconvenient all because this company has bad service and takes out your money without your permission. Oh yeah. read more

paid extra for the full clean and wheel shine, didn't even get all the pollen off my car, so when I pull into the lanes to try and clean the car myself with the window/windshield fluid I was told that I could only use it on my windshield and not the windows their car wash failed to clean. I wouldn't go back, paid 20+ dollars on something a hose and cheap sponge could do at home; and they have the audacity to try and sell some monthly subscription to you. read more

Used to be an OK value but they have raised the prices quite a bit. Not a good deal anymore.

Great service and great wash definitely recommend. Help me out with everything jeff helped me out so much

Literally NEVER gets my car clean. Doesn't matter if you buy the most expensive or cheapest, neither one cleans your car. Vacuums almost always are absolute crap. Do not waste your money! Pics are from right after I went through. You can't see the windshield but that is also still dirty. read more

I love the blue wave I use on main st in League City. It's always clean and everyone is very nice. If I want to upgrade they are very helpful in getting me upgraded. Noah was especially helpful. Keep up the good work. read more

Absolutely trash, the service and the product provided If you want more scratches than what you came with or to deal with shitty ass employees this is the place for you I guess read more

I visited this location October 2022. Apparently they used my card to sign up for a monthly plan that I never requested. When I finally noticed it on my card 11 months later they only refunded 8 months. I guess they plan to just keep the rest of my money. Never visiting again - watch your card closely. read more

First and last time going here. I drive an expensive 2015 Truck. I pull up and they refuse to remove my antenna- no big deal- I'm just use to it being removed as part of customer service. After the wash I pulled up to dry my truck and vacuum. I notice paint chips peeled away. I went the 18 year old " manager" Gabriel and he confirmed red paint chips were all over the drive thru. I filled out the incident report and was told the owner, Gabrielle will call me whenever she is in. The second page of the incident report is for the manager to state his part. He refused to provide it per the owner. Police report was filed. I hope to get this resolved. I was told the owner will review the claim and determine what then. Hopefully she gets this fixed and will update my post otherwise my attorney will invite you to civil court VIP. ***IF YOU DRIVE A TRUCK OR BIG SUV : BEWARE!!! 1/11/19 - never heard from store owner so I called at 3:30. After 20 min of waiting she gets on the phone and says claim denied! Two of her employees that were present say otherwise. So civil court we will go with previous statements from the employees she is going to look like a liar not taking accountability for what happened. ** IF YOU DRIVE SOMETHING LARGER THAN A MIDSIZE YOU WILL PROBABLY GET DAMAGE AND THEN YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN AT THIS PLACE. I CALLED CORPORATE AND THE REGIONAL MANGER IS TO CALL ME OTHERWISE SEE YA IN COURT GABRIELLE! 1/16/19 - Regional Manager called. Very rude... said to take him to court. Will do! These people obviously don't care about their customers. Ford dealership states they always get customers with damage from that same facility. read more

This place completely ignores it's No Loud Music policy. Had to listen to someone's loud booming music the whole time I dried and vacuumed my vehicle. Just take the sign down if you're simply going to ignore it! read more

Just because they have signs they think they aren't responsible for any damage to customers vehicles. Terrible customer service. Carwash ripped my antenna off and it started slapping the side of my truck all the way to the back. read more

Use cash if you come here. I had my debit card number stolen after using it here. Car wash is okay for what it is.

Nothing about this place is even remotely positive. Employees that don't care. An usher that don't look at your wheels when he guides you in -- right before he shoots a little squirt of nonsense on your front bumper. A blower that don't dry for nothing. Long lines, bad behaving computers (on busy days they simply give error codes). Go to Webster, and get some high quality for the same money at the same company. Because league city employees couldn't care less. read more

I really enjoyed my experience at this car wash I did just a simple $16 wash because it looked like it was about to rain. I loved loved loved that they have the air pump at the vacuum station which helps with getting it super detailed within. I will definitely be returning on my next visit to Houston. I have read other posts and I had no issue at this location vacuuming my car prior to washing it. read more

Have always been satisfied here. Vacuums are much better than car wash right in my neighborhood.

The tire shine never works. Employees are always standing around talking and looking on phone. They don't clean out the vacuum nozzles.

Do not use this car wash! The track equipment that pulls your car through or the washing mechanisms tore up my wheel and my tire today, 7/5/17. This isn't the first time I've have an issue with this carwash but this damage is so extensive I have to get a new tire on a new SUV. I've also gotten stuck inside the car wash for 20 minutes when it malfunctioned while they were doing upgrades last year. Whatever you do don't go here! I warned you. read more

I went there today for a quick wash and not even 2mins into the wash, their machine collapsed into my rear window and shattered it. I filled out an incident report and was told a manager will call me in 48hrs. I was never offered a refund nor help to clean up glass. They have definitely lost my business. read more

Okay for what it is: an Express exterior car wash. I dunno why you'd pay for more than the $6 wash because there's a lot of value packed in that entry level wash. Most express exterior tunnels can't seem to get tire shine right, it's really tough, you'll probably get sling (tire shine chem on your doors side panels from the tire). I was disappointed to see Turtle Wax products offered bc to me turtle wax is like entry level amateur homeowner stuff. The free vacuums are so awesome...truly great. The wheel wash that comes with the $6 is what one would expect. Ithink you shouldn't expect much and you'll be happy. I mean 6 bucks come on. As for reviews re scratches and damage. Any serious damage caused by one of these types of operations is either totally isolated and unforeseen or result of extreme negligence. I don't really think this staff is negligent. There will be from time to time so problems. But keep in mind, one of the biggest variables here is the age of your vehicle and its current shape which probably isn't as great as you would say. And re scratches, that's the nature of the game with express exteriors. You will scratch your car the same way driveway washing as regularly as you might wash here. I mean in terms of spiderwebs etc. Deep scratches usually aren't caused by these unless serious malfunction. Car paint is soft it's tough to clean it very well without some scratching in 3 min or less. read more

BlueWave Express Car Wash - The damage caused by the car wash - Car Wash Near Me - Dickinson, Texas

Don't go here. I went through the wash once out of laziness and now my car is covered is scratches.

Been going here for years. NEVER HAD ANY DAMAGE TO ANY OF MY VEHICLES. Not sure of the situation with pics of damage, but have never seen any damage myself. We have memberships on several vehicles and go there several times a week. read more

Don't visit here, you will regret it. This car wash should be out of business. Their drive through wash ripped the bumper off our car completely. Despite having a history of damaging vehicles, they continued to deny any responsibility claiming we had "pre-existing damage" to our car. At their request we visited to see what footage they had and the manager Gabrielle repeatedly tried to point out a "large gap" and "crack" that was nonexistent. Our bumper had recently been repaired and was intact and properly fixed in the footage. When we asked for a corporate contact number Gabrielle was unhelpful and only said we would be redirected back to the couple of people we already contacted. We had to take a picture of a flier on their wall ourselves on our way out for the information. read more

Worst customer service ever. We canceled our subscriptions a few months back, yet they are still charging us. When we went in to resolve the issue, they demanded paper statement from our bank before they can process the refund... which is bull. Why would they need to see my statement, their system should show that they charged us after we had already cancelled. read more

The car wash is always fast, does a good job for what it is. Free vacuums are the best. But why do the employees always look so miserable?

This place SUCKS. Literally. BEST vacuums EVER! Practically ripped my shirt right off of my body! With two toddlers recently in my car chomping on their birthday cake suckers from Starbucks...I needed a good vacuum! So, at 10$ for the wash and free vacuums that I don't have to keep pressing a button for, I was floored! Absolutely recommend this place for a good sucking! ;) read more

They have a restroom, mat washer machine that looks cool I didnt need to use it but it cost only 1.00, and vending machine with items about 1.00. None of it over priced as you would think or assume it to be. They have another vending machine that has car supplies like blue towels, etc. The vaccums SUCK and they are POWERFUL its awesome! I loved the vaccums here it's pulled dust and dirt and dog and cat hair better than any other place I've been other than the dealership cleaning my car. I do wish the hours of operation were posted bigger and better from the street so you know when they are open/closed. At times its difficult to tell. I will be back. read more

When I don't have time to wait on a full detail this is my go-to car wash. I normally always go with the top wash and I love how clean my vehicle gets considering it's a drive-thru car wash. Aside from the that, the other great thing about this car wash is the vacuums are free (and always free) and they pack some power!! If automatic car washers aren't your thing and you prefer you vehicle to be hand washed, at least utilize the free vacuums if you are ever in the area. Also, if you feel that it's worth it and you have the time, on the back of the receipt you'll find a rebate coupon for $2 that you can send in. Again, only if you think it's worth it. read more

Jeep owners beware, Blue Wave doesn't cover ANY damages to Jeep Wrangler. They are aware their equipment rips off the rear license plate bracket as the manager told me so. There is no sign at the FM 646 location stating this and the attendant did not tell me anything before I went through the car wash and had my bracket ripped off. The manager was not friendly and simply stated that someone was supposed to inform me of the potential for damage and that they do not cover any damages before I went through the wash. Another side note, I got the premium wash and my Jeep is still dirty. A sign needs to be posted stating you will not cover Jeep damages, Blue Wave FM 646. read more

BlueWave Express Car Wash - Damaged at BlueWave - Car Wash Near Me - Dickinson, Texas

Terrible The new rule is if you have a trailer ball on your SUV or truck you have to remove it or they will not let you go thru the wash

Bluewave express did damage to my 2019 Ford F-150 antenna base. Antenna was removed and the car wash was extremely rough with my truck to the point it ripped off the antenna base on finder. I noticed later that afternoon. Management took pictures and later denied my claim saying I'm responsible. Corporate office also refused my claim saying there is signage saying I'm responsible. I strongly suggest going elsewhere if you don't want the damage or the headache. read more

BlueWave Express Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Dickinson, Texas

I have been here multiple times and enjoyed the quick wash. However, now they won't let me wash my truck as long as I have my hitch connected in the receiver. This rule has never been written anywhere nor has it been a problem in the past. For this reason, they have lost my business. I was told my truck won't fit in the wash. I drive a short wheel base Ford F150. It has always fit before. I guess they just don't need or want my business. I could have removed the hitch but my key was at home. Still, this is not making sense to me. There are a bunch of car wash locations that will take my business. read more
