Carwash (Torquay, VIC)

Carwash, Torquay, VIC, is a local car wash you’ll spot near the esplanade.
Google gives it a 3.5 rating, so it feels like a mixed bag depending on the day.

There’s an automatic car wash on site, but plenty of reviews say it’s quick and not very thorough – some folks even end up with a splotchy finish on hire cars.
If you prefer doing it yourself, there are self‑service bays for washing.
There are vacuum stations with higher powered vacuums, and a dog wash facility too.
Most reviews note there’s not much staff on site, so you won’t get hands‑on help when you’re there.

Coin exchangers can be flaky, so bring coins if you can, though card payments are accepted. Some pay by card and run into surcharges or minimum time rules, which rub people the wrong way.

Prices come up a lot in chatter too, with many calling them high – basic washes around six dollars, autos in the twenty‑dollar range, and some card transactions costing extra.

They’re open 24 hours, so it’s easy to drop by late or early, and the layout feels more like a self‑serve stop than a full‑service station. If you want a quick top‑up and don’t mind the quirks, it’s a workable option.
