Services
6 QuestionsWhat an exterior express wash is, what comes with it, and what we do and do not do.
Do you offer interior cleaning or detailing services?
No. Drew's is an exterior express wash. We do not offer interior cleaning, hand washing, or detail services. What we do provide, free with every wash, is a full amenity area with vacuums, all-purpose cleaner, air freshener, mat beaters, compressed air, and microfiber towels, so you can handle the interior yourself after your wash.
What is an exterior express wash?
An exterior express wash is a conveyor tunnel that cleans the outside of your vehicle while you stay inside it. You pull onto the conveyor, put the vehicle in neutral, and the tunnel moves you through wash, rinse, sealant, and dry stages. At Drew's that takes roughly three minutes. Interior cleaning is do-it-yourself at our free amenity stations, which is what keeps the wash fast and the price low.
How long does a car wash take?
Roughly three minutes through the express tunnel. Time at the vacuum and amenity stations afterward is up to you and there is no time limit.
What is included in each wash package?
Our Deluxe Wash includes wash, wax, and wheels. Premium adds tire shine. Ultimate adds 2 step ceramic and graphene sealant. Ultimate Plus adds a towel dry. Every package, including the entry-level one, includes free use of the vacuum and amenity stations.
Compare wash optionsI'm not satisfied with my wash. What should I do?
Please alert a team member while you are on site and we will address the issue.
Do you offer rain checks?
No, we do not offer rain checks. If weather is a regular concern, our monthly membership lets you wash up to twice a day at any location, so you can come back as soon as the weather clears at no additional cost.

Vehicle Fit and Restrictions
6 QuestionsClearance, tire width, and which bay to use for trucks, racks, and coated finishes.
Will my vehicle fit in the car wash?
Our tunnel clearance is 84 inches and our touch-free clearance is 90 inches. The tunnels also have a tire width restriction of 12.5 inches. Vehicles must be free of top-mounted light bars, bike racks, and aftermarket spiky lug nuts to go through the tunnel. All of those restrictions can be handled by our touch-free washes at University Drive and Tower Point.
University Drive Tower PointCan you wash dually trucks?
Yes. Our touch-free machines at University Drive and Tower Point can fit duallys.
Can I take a lifted truck through the car wash?
It depends on height. Our tunnel clearance is 84 inches and our touch-free clearance is 90 inches, so a lifted truck that exceeds tunnel clearance may still fit the touch-free bays at University Drive or Tower Point. Tunnels also restrict tire width to 12.5 inches.
Can I wash a vehicle with a roof rack, bike rack, or light bar?
Not in the tunnel. Vehicles need to be free of top-mounted light bars, bike racks, and aftermarket spiky lug nuts to go through our express tunnels. Our touch-free bays at University Drive and Tower Point can handle these vehicles.
Is an automatic car wash safe for wrapped or ceramic coated vehicles?
Our touch-free bays are the better choice for vinyl wraps, ceramic coatings, matte finishes, and custom paint, because nothing physically contacts the surface. Those bays are at University Drive and Tower Point and are open 24 hours (with the exception of 3:30am to 5am for a daily system reset).
What should I do before entering the wash?
Retract or remove antennas, fold in mirrors if your vehicle requires it, secure loose items in truck beds, and make sure windows and sunroofs are fully closed. Check that your vehicle clears 84 inches for the tunnel or 90 inches for the touch-free bays.

Wash Types and Technology
7 QuestionsTouch-free bays, tunnel vs. touch-free, and the ceramic, graphene, and nanobubble technology inside our washes.
What is a touchless car wash?
A touchless car wash cleans your vehicle using high pressure water and specialized cleaning solution, with no brushes, cloth strips, or physical contact against the paint. The chemistry loosens road film and dirt, then pressurized water rinses it away. Drew's has touch-free bays at University Drive and Tower Point.
University Drive Tower PointWhich is better, the tunnel or the touch-free bay?
It depends on the vehicle and the dirt. The express tunnel uses mechanical agitation, so it removes heavier buildup faster. Touch-free is the safer choice for delicate finishes, wraps, and coatings, and it accommodates vehicles that exceed tunnel clearance or tire restrictions. Your membership covers both.
Will an automatic car wash scratch my paint?
Our express tunnels use soft-touch materials and maintained equipment designed to clean without damaging finishes. For drivers who prefer no contact at all, our touch-free bays at University Drive and Tower Point clean using high pressure water and cleaning solution with nothing touching the vehicle.
What is a 2 step ceramic wash?
A 2 step ceramic wash applies a ceramic sealant in two separate stages during the wash cycle. The first pass lays down the bonding agent and the second activates and cures it. The result is a hydrophobic layer that makes water bead and roll off, keeping the vehicle cleaner between washes. It is included in our Ultimate and Ultimate Plus packages.
What is a graphene wash?
Graphene is a sealant that bonds to your clear coat and creates a slick, heat-resistant protective layer. Compared to traditional wax it lasts longer, sheds water more aggressively, and holds up better under direct sun. It is included in our Ultimate and Ultimate Plus packages.
What is nanobubble technology?
Nanobubble technology injects extremely small gas bubbles into the wash water. Because the bubbles are so small, they carry cleaning solution into surface texture and tight areas that larger droplets skip past, lifting dirt more effectively while using less water and less chemical. Drew's recently added nanobubble technology to its wash process.
Is Drew's Car Wash environmentally friendly?
We use water reclamation systems and biodegradable cleaning products at every location.

Do I need a credit card to sign up for a membership?
