CarbuX Car Wash

I don’t know why it’s so hard to find a good car wash in such a big city with tons of cars. But this place is great! I used to live near a really fancy car wash that was pricier, but would wipe down all your interior and vacuum for you. For $ 8 at carbux I got a wash, air freshener, unlimited time at the vacuums and at the free mat cleaner machine. Doing it yourself isn’t so bad with this place– it’s a quick one stop shop :)
Pro tip– If you’re really nice they may even let you borrow their windex if you have dogs that slobber on windows… like mine do. The guys are super friendly!

Best carwash I’ve been! I’m from Maryland and is so hard to find a good car wash like this with Great customer service and Great prices. I really recommend this place.

I cannot express how incredible this place is well enough. The service I received a little over a week ago was far above and beyond anything that I could have ever expected. When I went out to my car that morning to drive to work, I had the lovely surprise of finding out my car had been egged overnight. Of course I freaked out, and so I came here since another friend of mine loves this place and recommended it. I paid for the best wash they offer which was about thirty-​five dollars, and came through only to see that there was still egg residue on my car. I want to say the gentleman’s name was Brian that helped me, although I could be remembering that wrong, but whatever his name was, he was an absolute savior for me. He made it clear to me that he was going to make sure that they got it off for me so that my (relatively new) car didn’t get ruined. He managed to get most of it off by hand, which again was far more than what I could’ve expected from this place. And his manager even had me go through the wash more than once so that they could do the absolute best job possible. All in all, the service I received from what isn’t your hand-​wash style car wash was top notch, and I will continue to take my car here as long as they’re open for. And to the gentleman that helped me, thank you! I hope the management here knows what a fantastic employee they have on their hands.
Unrelated, they have these really cool vacuum contraptions that you run your floor mats through and they are AWESOME. I’ve gone through the basic five dollar wash before just to get to use the floor mat vacuum.

Decent result on my Ford Fusion at a decent price — not great, but they are what they are. Not a perfect hand wash, but what do you expect from a giant spray system? It’s quick and simple and that’s what places like this are for.

What a great little cat wash. super convenient at least for me.lol. far price and does a good job actually washing your car and at the end the have vacuums you can use for the inside of your car. they also have the shakers for the floor to help clean those also. And it seems like there is always someone around to help u out when u need it

I’ve been thru a lot of car washes and this is the best. I love it so much I got a monthly membership. The treat u nice there too !

The car wash is ok. A little hard to get your tires lined up going in and the workers look like they are all having a miserable day. I got the impression one guy didn’t even want to help me get my big truck on the chain. My window was still down from removing a flag from the football game and I thought the window had gone all the way up but as I went into the wash I got soap all in the back seat. He stood there and didn’t say a thing! I just bought this truck and learning a lot about it still. When I drove out most of my time was cleaning the inside when I truly just wanted to vacuum out my truck. You can’t used the vacuum cleaners unless you go thru the wash. I found a lot of water marks all over my windows when I came out so it doesn’t truly get all the soap off of your car. Id rather pay 6 more dollars down the road next time. When your buying rags and cleaner out of the machine it adds right back up to a full service wash.

Drove across the country to Jacksonville and the car got pretty dirty from the 1000 miles. I know all the good washes around me at home, I am pretty picky and I keep my cars pretty clean. No idea where to go here — so hit Unilocal.I hand wash or use a touch less for my cars I want to keep pristine, but for my daily driver I am ok with a «touch» wash, which usually does a better job of actually cleaning the tough stuff off but can damage the paint finish if done a lot over the life of the car. Be sure to wax once a year at least. That helps. Carbux is «touch» wash and I knew that going in.
I got the $ 15 wash and it did a pretty good job. Let’s say exterior is 75% better (100% being new or like new). Not perfect, but my car was seriously dirty and it’s an auto-​wash. Better than many. During the park at the free vacuum, I did a bit more cleaning and the car is «20 foot» clean (looks great from 20 feet away) and has her shine back. The vacuum lasted MUCH longer than I needed it to, which is a good thing. As mentioned in another review, the end of the vacuum was not the right shape to get into those «hard to get to» areas.
I’ll still need to clean her when I get home, but a decent wash for the money. They also offered me a free air freshener or dash wipe cloth when I pulled in. I chose the dash wipe to clean up the interior a bit better. That was unexpected and a nice touch.

Good and cheap place to clean your car.

I like CarbuX. You can’t expect an automatic car-​wash to clean your car as well as a hand-​wash. That would be like assuming your RV will pilot itself if you turn on the cruise control. CarbuX does however give you a pretty solid amount of bang for your buck.
A basic wash is $ 5, and they go up to about four times that amount. The higher priced wash you purchase correlates to the amount of complimentary vacuum time you will receive after your wash. The middle one is pretty effective. I like to think of the highest priced option as an up-​charge for jackasses.
If you are upset at the results I would suggest getting the Xtreme wash by activating the soap tunnel, backing up to the very end of the parking lot, and entering the wash at full speed.
Results may vary.

Just went for the first time. You get more for the money at the Shell car wash. Very poor car wash and the self-​serve vacuums lack suction. My car still has pollen on it. Wouldn’t waste my time.
They did give me a coupon to return for another vacuum. Spoke with the manager, Stacy, and she offered to discuss the situation if I came back in-​but the worker I spoke with would not let me speak to her while I was there.

This is not a car wash for lazy people such as myself. However, I love the car mat cleaner here. Because of this feature, I would return.

Everything here is great: equipment chemicals are ‘green’.personnel are really nice and my car comes out really clean! Price is right too! what more can you ask???

This place is the best carwash in jax. I keep my car happy and clean by going here every other week. It’s quick too. I’m in and out in a jiffy.

Looks like they are workin out the bugs with the Club tags now. Fast and clean!

I’m torn. The cheapskate in me says I should wash my car myself, but the overworked new parent in me says screw it and spend the $ 10. They have a $ 5 wash, $ 7 wash, $ 10 wash and $ 15 wash. The $ 10 wash, which I got, has everything minus the flavor smell inside your car. That stuff is not for me. I took my wife’s car which gets washed infrequently… and the verdict was… «money well spent».
Before you drive through, they have a hand scrubber that you can use to get off the large bugs and droppings on your car. That makes a big difference.
I’d probably go back… but I’m a cheapskate. I have day dreams of selling my old Volvo, so maybe I’ll go through before I post the car on Craigslist.

CarbuX is awesome! I’ve been going there since the one on San Jose opened and it is hands-​down the best car wash for the money, not to mention the free vacuums. I wish there was one on every corner!
