    It says it charges 3$ but actually charges you 10$ absolute rip off. Don't go here if you wanna be cheated out of your money

    Dont use your debit card. Just charged me $24 for a $6 wash. This guy is never around and no phone number to call. He's a crook.

    easier to just go the drive through same price. Car was clean with some work I guess thats part of the allure but should be cheaper.

    Hubby still comes here to wash his car now and the added plus is that you can actually now pay for the self service car wash using a card!

    First time using a car wash at Costco ever. I was a bit apprehensive because I didn't quite know…read morehow it worked or how to pay for it. So pull up, tap the card on the machine, get a receipt, then pull forward to the attendant who marks off the receipt. It's pretty simple. My old car wash closed so that's why I had to use this one (also out of curiosity) and that's why I was used to getting my car on the track and putting the car in neutral so that it gets pulled through the wash. What I found surprising was how thorough the car wash washed my car. And unlike my old car wash, it doesn't leave excess water or soap on the books and crannys of my car. I didn't have to wipe it dry a lot like I did with my old car wash. The principal issue with this car wash is that it is REALLY far away from where I live. It's a 30 minute drive in no traffic minimum. I guess it's good that I only need to wash my car once a month. Usually.

    Do not come here unless you want to risk damage to your car!! We took our car here since the price…read moreis great, but had to wait in line for 30 minutes and after that found out the entire back of our cars side mirror had been knocked off! When we told the attendant this, he went into the wash and found the part immediately, but said that this happens daily!! He walked out with a second car mirror as well! That should not be the standard for a car wash! Also, there is no drying station:( Anyway, this is a place you'll have to risk it for the price, but we will not be back

    Hell yeah, Soapy Joe, I love that you're everywhere now!…read more I have one by my house and go there all of the time, but now that I've been spending a bit more time at my mom's house, I was curious if there was one close to her. Well, the strategic planning team at Soapy Joe's must be watching my every move because like a moth to a flame, I was quick to make my way just a hop, skip, and a jump to wash the beast. Sure, she's an old dog, but Joe makes her clean up well. I have no idea how old this operation is but I really love that they're everywhere and I know exactly what I'm going to get. The fact that I can get that same thing just about anywhere in SD is the cherry on top of why I like this company.

    It's been a minute since I wrote a one star review. This staff member simply didnt know when to…read morestop talking. Visited on a Thursday morning. I come here once maybe twice a month and don't have a membership- that somehow seems to be a crime. I understand the staff is doing their job- at least that's what the staff member kept saying to himself. A simple "I'm not interested in the membership" doesn't suffice. I mentioned to the staff I come here once a month. He continued to push. To which I said "why do you make it so difficult, can I just get a car wash, I'm in a hurry" The attitude initiated at that point, he kept stating he was "just doing his job". I'm definitely hesitant going back here after this encounter. Getting a car wash should be a painless relatively easy transaction. This for sure is a business that doesn't require a lot of human interaction. Especially awkward forceful interactions with the staff. Value: $13 for a basic car wash, you still have to dry mirrors, windows etc...
