Vermont Car Wash

soap is hardly used in this car wash!!!

I paid for the basic $ 11 and they said $ 2 Xtra because it’s a grand caravan family van which I think is fair. It was really dirty with leaves and stuff inside and out. They took their time and did a good job, very nice thanks.
(Plus I think it’s great these guys own and operate the place themselves, worker-​owned cooperative)

This place is terrible! I’ve given it way too many chances but I’m officially DONE! The outside of my car is never a problem BUT the inside is!!! They ALWAYS forget to clean the sides of the door, cup holders and OBVIOUS spots that are dirty!!! I’m done giving my money to this place and given them tips! Tips are suppose to be a generosity bc you «did a good job» but every time I GET INSIDE my car, I want it back! I definitely DO NOT recommend this place.

Its a good place to bring your car for a $ 35 hand wax. Good deal. Most of the workers take pride in their work. I watch my car at each step of the process. Like any car wash place I’m sure there are a few transient workers that aren’t on point. I’ll be back.

Now I usually go to the carwash by my house, but it was converted to self serve! Noty style. So i found this place and decided to check it out.
Completely disappointed. I had to literally grab a rag and wipe down the inside of my car and point out the bugs still on the grill and windshield
They did a really crappy job and looked at my crazy when I didn’t tip! NEVER goin back. oh and they had the nerve to give me a buy 10 get the 11^th wash free card! Trust me that won’t be useful for me.
On to the next I guess.
I could do a better job myself at home for free… hell my 9 year old can!

I went here with my mom because it was our usual place, and never had any problems. One Sunday after church we decided to go and get our car washed, and as usual we put our valuables in the trunk and cleared the seats. Unfortnately, on this day, I left my iPod 4 in the back seat pocket. I realized I had left it in the car as it was being washed. When we got our car back, I went to go look for it, it wasn’t there. My mom, brother and I checked the trunk and the car and ourselves to see where it would be– we never found it. We went to go speak to the managers and explained what happened to see if they could ask the workers– they did nothing! They just stared at us and called, and said no one saw it, and told us to have a nice day! They did not even help! Neither did the workers when we asked them ourselves! We haven’t gone there ever since and I would highly recommend going somewhere else to get your car washed! I hate this establishment

They have the most inexperienced workers here, they always leave wax residue and never clean the rims properly and leave water marks on the inside of the windows but last time was my last time, they dropped the sponge on the ground and picked it back up and kept using it with dirt from the ground caught in the sponge fibers and it scratched my car up pretty bad

The manager is pushy and always tries to tell me it’s extra to actually vacuum the car, not just the mats.

Ah, The end of an era.
I’ve been coming to Vermont Car Wash since I moved to this area, almost a decade. On Friday I dropped my car off, a very pretty navy blue 350z convertible, midday for a hand-​wash. I went across the street for a chai and was ready to settle in for a bit, but not too long into a phone conversation with my Dad I noticed that my car was already in the final stages of being wiped down. Really, that should have been my first clue something was wrong. I headed over and waited in the seating area and not five minutes after sitting down car was ready. The attendant graciously opened the door for me, I tipped him, and headed home, which is about 3 blocks away. I spent the next day, Saturday, at home working on an animation film I’ve been a part of for 4 years that has finally reached the end stages, with one director in person and the other Skyping in because she was on location on another project. Sunday I went to leave to meet friends for lunch at LACMA and discovered that the driver’s side door had huge, I mean MASSIVE scratches from the from panel until just past the side view mirror.
My heart sank. Because I let the attendant open the door for me (so the scratches were hidden from me) and I didn’t do a walk around, I’d driven off the lot and, despite the fact that I’d gone straight home and hadn’t moved my car since, I knew that Vermont Car Wash would deny the damage. I’d grown complacent because I’d been a long-​term customer and had never had a problem with them. And now I was going to have to pay big-​time for trusting them and the quality of their work. I swung by anyway and showed the damage to a man who said he was the manager, Roberto. I showed him my receipt and told him what happened. He met my story with skepticism and raised eyebrows. You went straight home? (Disbelief) Oh really? You didn’t move your car allllll day Saturday? (one raised brow). He did say that it looked like it could be buffed out, so hopefully this fix won’t cost me an arm and a leg. Roberto then offered to look at the security footage to see what had happened and to call me the next day, which was yesterday. I, of course, received no phone call. It was no more than I expected but still disappointing.
You can’t judge a business and how good they are when things are going well anymore than you can judge a relationship that way, because that’s the easy stuff and, well, things happen. Based on this response I’d have to say that this is not a good business. And, oddly enough, as much as I love this car (I looked and waited for exactly this car with exactly these colors for over a year while driving a 14 year old dilapidated ragamuffin from my college days), I’m actually more irritated that I have to find a new car wash than I am that I have to get my car fixed. Sad.
Do that walk around, Folks! Don’t be me, lol!

This is a great place to get your car washed. I travel from far because they do a good job. And they also treat their workers fairly.

It is close to my work, so i tried regular car wash here.
Price was good and the service was very pleasant.
Not overwhelming crowd, and it was done within 30 min.

Having crashed in LA just a few days ago my ship is disguised VW from Vermont the staff was helpful with not only with the food See Macho Tacos review but places to park. It did take some time but after 30 light year trip the craft was a bit… Smelly. They did a great job.

Usually a good wash. Best car wash in the area. Trust me I’ve been to the rest. Be sure to tip your finisher he will touch up anything that you ask if it was missed.

Guy always tries you aggressively upsell on a more expensive car wash but he can’t speak English so it’s just confusing. The last two times I went there they missed major cleanup spots in the interior — including one thing I’d specifically asked to have cleaned. The outdoor waiting area is always full of smokers and the whole place is just bad vibes… Never going back.

Worse car wash ever after messing up my cars. The owner doesn’t have any customer service. Last time I’ll go there. If you get your car wash there you gotta keep an eye on you paint they will scratch it and dent it.

I went on Sunday afternoon. I have a Toyota Camry and the car wash was fast. It was done in 30 mins. In and out. Good job guys.

This is the worst place to wash your car! My car was handled without care and was given to me only half cleaned. The employees (including all of management) had horrible service and treated me as if i was stupid. I would never come back and i will never recommend anybody to get their car washed at this location. If you care for your car, DO NOT COME HERE.

I have a black 2012 nissan sentra
I was in and out in 40 mins! I think they washed my car great!
I couldnt even recognize it!!! It was very filthy and they did a good job! I think it depends on who u get. Ill be back!

I like this car wash.
They do a great job — most times.
They are fairly inexpensive and they have friendly service.
Tuesday is Ladies day! Discounted car washes! Yaay! :)
Cheers

Vermont Car wash is convenient. On the corner of Gage and Vermont. A couple of times
a week they have specials (free armor all). I got the car wash that included the armor all
and it was $ 12. Im happy and so is my car.
