Manual wash bays
The perfect solution for the DIY car wash enthusiast
We know our Touch Free Auto Wash system is amazing, but we also realise that maybe it isn’t for everyone. If you prefer the hands-on approach to washing your wheels, our self-serve wash bays are exactly what you need.
Not only for cars
Self-serve wash bays cater for all types of vehicles and washing choices.
They are the answer if you enjoy hand washing and polishing your vehicle. But they are also perfect if you need to clean your vehicle’s engine or if your transport of choice is a motorbike.
Do you have a workhorse with a ton of mud and grime that needs elbow grease to get it clean? Then the range of wash options in the manual wash bays will make your life a whole lot easier.
You can even wash your boat or van. But with the bigger rigs, please check with us first about clearance levels.

A range of options to suit your needs
Does the engine need degreasing? Selling the car and want to give it that showroom floor look?
Our self-serve manual wash bays have the solution for you.
You can opt for the works or go for the basics. The choice is yours. And best of all, only pay for what you use. Simply tap your card and get cleaning.
Each self-serve car wash bay has available:

Now, what’s the inside story?
Okay, the exterior of your car is sparkling, but what’s going on inside?
Have you got enough sand on the floor to create a new beach?
Has the dog shed its fur all over the seats?
Or is the aroma that wafts up your passengers’ nostrils a bit like a gym locker room?
If this sounds like your car’s interior then maybe it’s time for a cleanse on the inside.
And for that we have vacuum bays!
From the floors to the boot, the powerful Car Lovers Express vacuum cleaners suck up the dirt leaving a gleaming interior.
Finally – banish the whiffy odours. Deodorise and drive off with a fragrant and fresh interior.
Self-serve wash bays are fantastic because…
You can give your vehicle the special personalised treatment it deserves.
If you live somewhere with limited parking and no space to wash and vacuum your car, then this is for you.
It’s great for the environment. No suds or contaminated dirt running down your driveway and into the drains or onto your yard.
Then of course is the money saving part. Our Self-serve bays can help you save on your power and water bill as well as on expensive car cleaning products.
And because you trust us with your prized investment, we only use trusted car care products.

This is the BEST car wash in the region. DON’T go anywhere else.
I am so impressed with this service. The guy who is there is polite and careful with your car. The was is so much better than all the other automatic washes in the area. The level of soap and wax is far superior and you get your money’s worth. And on the note of money, this is the cheapest in the area by $4. So it’s the cheapest AND the best! I live 25 min drive away but I reckon it is worth the trip. It is equipped with self wash vacuum and even a dog wash. Go here - get your car clean!
Excellent service and very friendly staff.
