1st Car Wash is a modern and well-maintained car wash located in South Austin. Customers appreciate its clean and well-lit environment, making them feel safe, even at night. The facility offers a touchless wash that many find to be the best they have ever used, leaving cars looking amazing. However, some reviews mention that the drying process could be improved, as customers often need to spend extra time drying their cars themselves. While the wash service is generally seen as worth the price, which ranges from $13 to $14 for a full wash, some find it a bit expensive. A notable inconvenience is that vacuum services only accept coins, which can be less convenient compared to other places that accept card payments. The self-serve spray wash is praised for being budget-friendly, starting at $3, unlike other locations that charge higher fees upfront. Overall, 1st Car Wash provides a variety of wash options, easy access, and sufficient spots for customers looking for a quick and effective car wash experience.
Extremely friendly and helpful service. Equipment totally maintained and very reasonably priced - I paid a lot more in other locations.
They need to upgrade their card reader which can be easily compromised because of its location and no chip or scanning operation.

I have been going here for 20 years and today 11/8/25 when I went to wet my dry microfiber towels they removed the water faucet/sink.I will have to go somewhere else now which sucks. Bring back the faucet and sink an I will be back.

I don’t like how the automatic dryer cuts off at 15 seconds left.
