I wash my car at night

November 13, 2007 3:19 PM

Where can I find a good car wash with extended hours in DC?

Yelp and google failed me (though I am x-posting this question to Yelp). I need to get the interior and exterior of my car washed before I finalize its sale on Friday. I'd like to spend less than $30. I live in Adams Morgan, so somewhere in that vicinity would be great.


I'd rather get it done in the evening, so I don't have to take time out of the work day. Seems like most places close around 6:00. I'm looking for a place where they drive it through and do the interior cleaning while I wait inside, to allay my safety concerns about getting my car washed at night.

Any suggestions?

Response by poster: Or, if you can't suggest one with nighttime hours, then one that's good that I could go to in the morning before work.

I always go to Flagship Car Wash in Van Ness:

4432 Connecticut Avenue N.W.
(Next to Burger King)
202-363-4960

Full Service Brushless Washing:
8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

Not sure when work starts for you, but that's an option.

When I lived in DC and had a car, I always went to Splash. Their website says they are open from 8 to 5 which is sort of mystifying since I'm sure I used to go in the evening. But they were pretty good.
