Central Auto Clean is one of Manchester’s most popular car wash destinations, so we decided to give it a try, and we’re happy to report they did not disappoint!

They offer a comprehensive range of services to keep your car in top condition, from basic washes and polishes to odour removals. We were genuinely impressed by the variety and quality of their offerings.

Additionally, the staff is efficient and friendly, completing their tasks with minimal hassle.

The waiting areas are another highlight, providing a comfortable space for customers to relax with free Wi-Fi and drinks.

It’s worth noting that their prices start at £12 for small cars and go up to £40 for larger vehicles, which might be considered a bit high. However, they are transparent about their pricing.

Finally, it’s important to consider that Central Auto Clean is a ten-minute drive from the city centre. This distance can be inconvenient, especially on busy days.

The best car cleaning service in Manchester. 

“The best car cleaning service in Manchester. I’m so impressed by their attention to detail. They work so hard to get your car perfectly clean. A truly amazing service. Would highly recommend it. Regardless of your car quality, they do the absolute most. I’m very impressed and will definitely keep coming back!”

Brilliant car wash and valeting service!

“Brilliant car wash and valeting service! Very efficient and friendly staff. It’s my third time using their mini-valet service and they consistently do the job perfectly. Price is reasonable for such a quality job and products used. Will definitely recommend this.”

Discovering Wash Doctors was a game-changer for us who struggle to find time for car maintenance.

What sets Wash Doctors apart is their versatility. We liked that they offer a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet almost any car care need.

Additionally, we appreciate that the team at Wash Doctors is impressively swift and effective, ensuring any car receives top-notch treatment without monopolising their customer’s schedules.

Of course, being a mobile service means traditional perks like waiting areas and complimentary refreshments aren’t on offer. However, we think the convenience of doorstep service more than compensates for this.

One drawback we should mention is the lack of pricing details on their website, which can be frustrating for prospective customers.

Despite this, we still think Wash Doctors is a godsend for those living outside the city centre or simply preferring not to drive to a car wash.

This is an amazing service

“This is an amazing service – can’t believe they don’t use water! Heard about Wash Doctors from a friend and will be telling them it was a great recommendation. Usually go to the car wash but this is much easier and there weren’t any funny water marks. Cannot recommend highly enough.”

Crystal Shine Car Wash is one of those establishments that just gets it right, and we can stand by this.

We love that their meticulous approach ensures cars leave looking fresh and spotless, with the full detailing service standing out for its thoroughness.

We do have to mention that they’re a bit out of the way from the city centre, but if you’re around Stretford, it’s a super convenient spot to keep your ride shiny and clean.

That said, we’re still positive about them because the team at Crystal Shine is fast and efficient, so you get a thorough clean without taking up the whole day.

Plus, we also appreciate that they’re all about that friendly customer service vibe. Always there to help with a smile!

Another standout feature of Crystal Shine Car Wash is its affordability. According to the patrons that we’ve talked to, they’ve consistently commended the reasonable rates, offering great value for the quality of service received.

Overall, Crystal Shine Car Wash checks all the boxes that vehicle owners may need for their regular upkeep.

Done very efficiently and professionally

“Got my model Y washed (interior and exterior) for only £17. It was squeaky clean, inside out. Done very efficiently and professionally. Very happy with the service I got. I must say, the air freshener they use (one they hang on the rearview mirror) is amazing. It has their branding and it gives a fragrance which feels like a nice perfume. The whole family noted it when I got the car back to the Midlands. I wish they were close to us.”

Really impressed by this place

“Really impressed by this place. Needed my car cleaned up for some photos as I plan to sell it, so I thought that the £10 mini valet would be fine. But, it turned out to be great! 4 guys vacuuming and cleaning the inside of the windows. Matts being washed, and waxing of the outside. I’ve had to pay £50 for that standard in other places. All done within 25 minutes.”

The Great American Car Wash has made a name for itself, especially for those looking for a quick and efficient wash near the city centre. That’s why we decided to give them a try.

After visiting them, we were happy to find they offer a variety of services to meet different car care needs. They’ve got everything from basic washes to interior vacuuming and waxing services.

Plus, their location near Oldham Road is super convenient – just a 3-minute drive from the city centre. For us, this makes them a great choice, especially if you want to pop in and out without wasting much time.

However, we do want to note a lowlight to them. Some regulars that we’ve talked to, have reported inconsistent results, suggesting that quality can vary depending on the day or the staff working.

Overall, despite these occasional inconsistencies, we’re still pretty positive about The Great American Car Wash because of their overall experience and wide range of services.

I would rate the experience a 4.5 out of 5 stars.

“I recently visited this car wash and was quite impressed with certain aspects of their service, but noticed some room for improvement in other areas.

Overall, I would rate the experience a 4.5 out of 5 stars. Their actual washing process is fantastic compared to other car washes in Manchester. The employees are meticulous in cleaning the exterior and utilize high quality soaps and advanced equipment. This resulted in my vehicle looking spotless from the outside.

However, I did find issues with some elements of the interior detailing. After picking up my car, I noticed that the seats were not vacuumed thoroughly, as there was still debris lodged between the stitching that should have been cleaned. I brought this to the staff’s attention but was disappointed with the resolution – the employee just quickly wiped the particles onto the floor with a cloth instead of properly recleaning the seats.

This makes me think the overlooked details may have been due to it being a busy Sunday with many cars in line. I hope to try this car wash again soon on a regular weekday when they may have more time to devote to the interior and final touches. If they can be more attentive to those aspects, then I would happily come back and provide a 5 star review. The washing itself is superb, so with just a bit more care on the finer details, they can exceed expectations across the board.”

Excellent Service

“Excellent service – just let them take care of it all while you relax in the waiting area. The waiting area in question features a cosy café and accessory shop, a relatively peaceful haven from the din of pressure washers and vacuum cleaners hard at work on your pride and joy, visible through the viewing window. The prices are not the cheapest, but for the quality and level of service it’s worth it.”

From what we’ve seen, Posh Car Wash is all about delivering top-notch car cleaning services at wallet-friendly prices.

What grabbed our attention was their wide range of services, catering to all sorts of car care needs. From basic washes and waxes to interior cleaning and even tyre care, they’ve got you covered.

Most customers that we’ve spoken with were happy with the quality of service at Posh Car Wash. Our team member also had a great experience when he took his vehicle for some needed upkeep.

One thing we do want to mention is that their amenities are pretty basic. The waiting area has comfortable seating and free drinks, but it doesn’t have the fancy touches you might find at other places.

Another thing that we’re a bit iffy about is that their location might not be perfect for city dwellers and the service quality can sometimes fluctuate.

Despite these drawbacks, the friendly and attentive staff and affordable prices that they offer still make Posh Car Wash a solid choice.

I had an exceptional experience at Posh Car Wash!

“I had an exceptional experience at Posh Car Wash! The staff was incredibly professional and attentive, ensuring that every detail of my car was taken care of.

I highly recommend Posh Car Wash to anyone looking for a superior car cleaning experience!”
