Washing your car in Melbourne

Postby RAS » Sun Sep 30, 2007 10:34 am

Hi All,

Moved to Melbourne from Perth 2 weeks ago. Just had my car transported across the Nullarbor on the train from Perth to Melbourne. It was covered but still has a layer of desert on it.

Can anyone tell me the rules on washing your car in Melbourne and also, if anyone knows, a good place to wash your car in central south east area?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome :)
No home washing, you have to do it at a commercial car wash place.

From my experience they're pretty similar from one place to another. Washing on weekdays usually gives you more time per dollar :)

The one exception to home washing is if you have a rainwater tank, like me :D

Commercial car wash FTW in any case. Makes it much easier.

I guess you better change your location RAS!

Now you can meet up with the Melb folks.
