Green Clean Car Wash

Yep, $ 25 for a car wash. It’s supposed to be $ 10, so the $ 15 may be a hold.
Even if it’s a hold, I’m in between jobs so I need that $ 15 right now. My usual car wash only holds an extra $ 5. I mean, an extra $ 15 is excessive, gas stations no longer even put a hold on your card.
I won’t be coming back here again.

I would have given this place 5 stars for being eco friendly, inexpensive, and super convenient. As other reviewers have posted, I also got a $ 25 charge on my checking account. Then another charge of $ 19.50 came through from Green Clean. It is supposed to be $ 3 for every 5 min and I used 7 minutes at their self serve location. I live paycheck to paycheck and cannot afford an additional $ 40 in charges nor to wait 5 – 10 business days to recover that money from disputing the charges with my bank. The phone number listed on their website seems to be a personal number and the voicemail is full. I would definitely use cash if you go here. I’m hoping they will step up and do something to resolve this situation.

Washed my car for 7 minutes and checked my account to see you guys charged me $ 25.00, are you kidding me?

As good as self serve car washs get… Originally like others said, it looked like I also got charged $ 25 for a 5 minute wash, but a few days later the actual charge for 6 bucks came through. The $ 25 was just an approval.

Worst car wash in the area manager/​owner spent to much on the fountain in the front and not enough on equipment .Card readers are broke, either they scan and the screen can’t be read or they don’t work for payment. Spot free rinse is worse then a garden hose. 1 of 3 tools don’t work.

I brought my car here last Saturday to try it out. I used my credit card. They charged me $ 25 for a 4 minute wash. What a rip off! Not suggesting this place. This place is a scam. Do not use you’re Credit card here.

what a freaking scam! never even think about using credit card here! i got charged $ 25 for 2 minutes, on top of it eating $ 2 in quarters! fuck this place, i’d have given it –5 stars if i could. definitely putting a stop payment on that transaction!

Fraud. The sign says $ 5 for an 8 min wash. I was charged $ 25 to my credit card for 6 minutes. I will be disputing the charge through my credit card. Don’t go here. I think the positive reviews must be fake.

HORRIBLE!!! ATTENTION TO THOSE OVERCHARGED ON THEIR CREDIT CARD
I just had a rare car I bought of eBay delivered and the first thing I wanted to do was clean it. Ever since the Hermosa Coin Op self car wash got turned into a car rental place I have searched for a self wash and came upon this.
Expensive as hell and when I was done I took a single rag, one small rag to wipe the water from the windshield so I can see where I am driving and right as I started a small man with a heavy Spanish accent YELLED AT ME and said «YOU HAVE TO MOVE TO DRY»!!!
Keep in mind I was 5 seconds into wiping the windshield only, not the whole car but just the drivers side of the windshield and he was RUDE AS HELL!
I am also having American Express open an investigation to their fraudulent method of overcharging the Credit Cards’ of customers, I was charged way over the amount that was shown on the LCD screen at the time of the wash.
I encourage others to do the same and I will also be starting a class action through my buddy who is a prominent local attorney.
They pissed off the wrong guy!

$ 25 for a 10 minute wash I did myself?! Never coming back! It’s $ 15 to have someone do it inside and out somewhere else!

It’s a pretty basic self car wash with all of the fixings. In that, it is a decent establishment.
The big problem here is it takes your credit card and advertises $ ⁵⁄₈ min. I just did a 21 minute car wash and was charged $ 25. Technically that should be $ 15 at the very most. I hate being charged something other than what is advertised.
Save yourself some money and go to Auto Spa Car Wash on Aviation or go get it detailed by an actual person.

Not sure what is going on with maintenance. I’ve been coming here weekly, but the credit card service has been down for almost a week, and the place looks to be falling into disrepair. I’m about to give up on it. Let’s see some pride taken here again and I’ll come back.

They did a really nice job detailing car – will definitely make this my «go to» car wash. Bonus: got in and out quickly.

Hmmmmm. I am trying the places closer to my new place… so I passed on the multi-​bay, do-​it-​yourself place on PCH in Hermosa which charges $ 5 for 15 minutes, and ended up paying $ 5 for 8 minutes. That was rip-​off #1…
So, Maurice (my SUV) is dirty as all hell from moving this past weekend and other excuses I shall refrain to mention and I just wanted a quick DIY cursory wash. I feel that’s ALL this little 4-​bay place is good for…
Sure, the location is clean, there’s vaccuums, dispensers of all kinds, and the machine seemed to work okay… but the soap sprayer intentionally seems to go suuuuupppppeeeeerrrrr eeeffffffiiiinnnnnggggg ssssssslllllooooow, so you need to put more money in by the time you’re rinsing and all… sofa king we todded. Yeah, say that out loud fast.
I just think I could have put the $ 10.50 I ended up spending into a detail job at Red Carpet, or just take the damned time when I find my cleansers, waxes, and such to do it myself… since I’m the best person for the job any way…
Be lazy and in a hurry… get a spotted car, lose $ 10, and feel like an idiot. Silly me, next time I’ll choose another spot to clean my car.
Keep Moving Forward…

Not sure what is going on here. Last two times I came here I was over charged. Owner credited me back the first time after a bit of a hassle and it happened again. Not coming back even though it’s only two blocks away. Rather drive to Hermosa where I’ve NEVER had an issue in years and it’s $ 5 for 15 minutes vs $ 5 for only 8 here.

This review is for the self service bays. Equipment/​area is clean and everything seems to function well. I give this place 5 stars because of the great interaction I had with one of the managers there. Incredibly nice and friendly (Irish I think) guy. My car wash of choice moving forward.

My first few experiences was great. I went here a number of times in fact. When it gets busy, the big boss would help manage the crowd. They were thorough and turned my dark carpets cleaned — Thanks big boss. I love how quick they can be but here is why they are now getting the stars…
My last few visits were not at all satisfying. A staff member pocketed my change that I had in the car. Once they did not at all touch my trunk. Another time, not thorough and not loving how they are driving my SUV like it is some kind of race car. I have brought cars after cars of mine here, and their business is slowly letting me down. It’s been awhile that I have left satisfied.
UPDATE—
^^ my review was based on a few bad days. The big boss was transitioning through some business changes and certainly staffings too. I did go back. It has changed. The boss is still wonderfully helpful. From beyond exceptional to exceptional.

I’ve been coming here for years, even before the remodel. Never had any problems. I like how the machines take credit cards. Just be sure to push «stop» so the machine turns off and stops billing you. There’s enough place to dry your car and there are vacuums too. Reward yourself with a soda at the 7-​Eleven next door afterward.

After reading the positive reviews for this place, I decided to surprise my husband by getting his car washed and detailed. I went on a Monday hoping to avoid the crowds, which was a good thing. I ended up getting the car back within an hour and 20 minutes. They do a thorough job when it comes to detailing the interior of the car and washing the carpets. They’re environmentally friendly which made me feel better about the whole service.
What I didn’t like was the lack of quality sitting area for you to wait for your car. There are a few outside patio-​type seats that are uncomfortable. If you step «inside», the lights were out like nobody was home and there are no chairs for you either. I would think for a service that requires generally an hour +, there would be quality sitting areas for their customers.
Other than that, this place is legit.

Wow, is this how DIY car wash places are like in affluent neighborhoods? Crazy. Super clean and well-​maintained, lots of water/​soap settings to choose from, towel vending machines, fancy ass vacuums that even spritz your car with fragrance? How do they do that? AND like everything these days (for those who can afford it), it is environmentally friendly. Hence, the «green» in the name.
After I got over the culture shock (I’m used to drive-​through car washes and washing your car with a bucket in the driveway), I realized that it’s kinda pricey, granted people who live in the area can probably afford it. I mean sure, there’s the convenience factor of having good water pressure and not having to drag out your own bucket and soap and hose and all that. But drive-​thru car washes have the benefit of actually drying your car for you and you also don’t have to be sprayed by anybody else washing their car nearby. Maybe having someone else hand-​wash your car strikes a happy medium: it could be about the same price as going to Green Clean, but you don’t have to put in the labor AND you don’t have to get sprayed by other people AND you know that they’ll probably do a more thorough job than you will!
