About

Harbour Town Self Serve Car Wash (Arundel, QLD) is a handy local spot, sitting on Google at about 3.2 stars. It mostly takes cards, with tap‑and‑go handy for quick washes. The self‑serve bays run on per‑minute pricing, and the price chatter is mixed: some say $7 for around 6–7 minutes, others wish for a touch more flexibility.

There’s at least one automatic option, with a reviewer noting they were directed into a car wash behind another car. There are staff‑assisted washes too, including a premium $120 wash that supposedly comes with a dash wipe. And yeah, they’re open 24 hours a day, so you can swing by whenever you need.

Vacuum cleaners can be a bit of a lottery; some reviews say they’re not great. Bay 4 accepts coins, while most bays are card‑only. Vacuums cost about $2 for four minutes. It isn’t the slickest setup, but the water pressure and chemicals get the job done for a casual coast‑side wash.
