Suds Shop Self Service Car Wash

I recently stopped by Suds Shop Self Service Car Wash and overall it was okay. The place definitely does its job and it’s honestly one of the only convenient self-service car washes near Clermont, which I appreciate. My main issue is the lighting at night. I went to wash my car later in the evening and the lights were pretty dim/low, which made it harder to see what I was doing and check if everything was fully clean. This place could really use an update—especially brighter lighting to make it feel safer and easier to wash your car after dark. Other than that, it works as expected and I’d still come back when I need a quick wash.

Only self service wash in a 20/30 mile radius and it is falling apart. Only accepts quarters even though a new card device was recently installed. Been here twice in 7 days and it just doesn’t work. I left a message on voicemail that was never replied to and the phone was powered off. Change machine doesn’t work. The receiver has been removed. It’s basically a donation box. Shame. Always came here to wash my vehicle for the past 5 years. Nothing now. I have no idea what will happen if you actually use quarters.

Bay 1 closest to vacuum cleaners not operating Sunday morning. It took my money, but no water pressure. Still not a bad place to wash your truck.....

This place use to be reliable but has deteriorated greatly over the past year. It’s completely hit or miss on what is working and when. Clearly not visited by owner/ operator as much as necessary. Best to avoid the place and hope for new management sooner then later.

Not terrible but tons of room for improvement, Pros -building looks decent -relatively clean -gets the job done Cons —towel vending took money and gave nothing along with no way to get your money back. —brushes in bays are in bad condition —timer is short —water pressure is low —lots of broken items. —no real shampoo machine —vending machines are mostly empty
