=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE Tough one to call: it's conveniently open 24/7 and could do a light wash handily; however, the wait times can be long and it's not exactly cheap for the quality you get. 2.5 to 3 stars! === 2. SERVICE The good: - If you have a lightly-dirty car, it may take care of most of the dirt...but not much (see pic). So if you're desperate, it'll do in a pinch. - Blue "soft cloths" are used, without much in the way of the traditional rollers found in automated car washes are used - perhaps explaining the light cleaning abilities. No evidence of scratching my car. - It's credit card operated, open 24/7. The not-so-good: - Each wash can last from 6-10 minutes, which means if there are even 2 to 3 cars in front of you, it may be up to a 30 minute wait in a line you can't get out of... - Even with light dirt on my car (after a few days in rainy weather - nothing serious or caked on), there was a fair amount of light dirt still present on the car. - There are many other options to choose from, often with better results or for a lower price. === 3. ENVIRONMENT It's relatively new and so modern, clean, and brightly lit. There are two lanes available, but perhaps only one is open during COVID or the weekends. It seems a little small/compact in the curved lanes and so larger vehicles may need to maneuver carefully. read more

While washing my vehicle, the machine snapped off the antenna on the roof of my car. Upon returning the attendant had the antenna and gave it to me. I phoned their office and, after a week the manager called back to inform me that he looked at the video and saw the antenna come off during the drying stage. This somehow translated to "It's not our problem". I asked to see this video....I was refused. I asked for his full name and was refused. The cost to me is over $800. Don't recommend for anyone to use this company. read more

Clean NOT. Have driven past this place many times and always wanted to try. Wish I checked the reviews first. Several cars behind with only one bay working. It seemed like it was taking its time with each car so I figured it must be good. I was wrong. Paid for the $19 better Touchless wash. It basically sprayed my car with water. It dropped some white foamy stuff on each side but ignored the middle. The hub wash things never moved. After the wash both my front and rear bumpers were still dirty as well as both front and rear windows. There was also still a white residue left on the sides and around front window. What a Ripoff. Sent them an email but no reply. Save your money. Delete the app and go somewhere else. read more

Came here because they're open 24 hours but didn't realize it would be a complete waste of time. Expensive compared to Shine or gas station car washes. Went for the $17 "better wash" and car did not come out clean at all. You can see from my picture exactly where the jets hit but it just drew circles on my car. Worthless car wash, if I came in with a clean car I wouldn't have come in the first place would I? Whoever is operating this establishment should be ashamed. They probably bought their Google reviews by enticing people with free car washes but not even worth it even if it was free. read more

Washworld - complete waste of time and money - Car Wash Near Me - Richmond, British Columbia

I had my minivan washed after I have received a coupon from oil change in the same premises. during the wash, my driver's sideview mirror knocked off of the housing. talk to the service manager who returned my call after several days attempts, he denies to take the responsibility and said that it might be a problem with my mirror clips or something. he also states that I picked up the mirror after the wash and expect me to get off during the wash and taken it. We don't have the privilege to see the video and it is one side argument like talking to a wall. could have taken them to small claims court but it is non-sense to waste court system for these lousy business owners acts. better to spend public money of meaningful services. Very bad service. after all, van also not cleaned properly and that is another story to talk. I will not go back to the oil change and the washworld. there is a reason why these guys are crooks. read more

Greetings everybody, It was that time of the month again, my awesome blue BRZ ( With the amazing HKS Exhaust that wakes you up at night ) needed a car wash. I decided to try out WashWorld instead of husky (If you have not read my husky touchless car wash review, you're definitely missing out!!) As soon as I entered the lot, I was very confused; the layout was a bit confusing. I didn't know which lane to proceed on for my touchless wash. After figuring out the layout of the entire lot, I decided to go on lane 2. Lane 2 was in fact the touchless wash lane, I gave the electronic kiosk my visa debit car and purchased a $13 basic car wash. The whole ordeal of getting my car on the correct position was annoying , maybe having a sign or a painted line on the floor specifying on where to stop would be helpful. The wash it self was around 4 minutes. The whole process was pretty normal and what you would expect from any wash's, EXCEPT this machine actually focuses on cleaning wheels. Which is a huge win for me as I am a race car driver (BRZ owner) Finally the wash was over, and I was overall very satisfied. There were few remnants of dirt on my back window. Other than that it was a pretty good car wash! I hope you all enjoyed my review, make sure to like this post! Cheers, Awesome Blue BRZ owner read more

I lined up behind several cars and eventually went through the car wash and payed $18 for a more substantial wah. I am staying with a friend nearby and returned to her place which is 5 minutes from the car wash. When I got out I checked the car and found that the wash had not even taken the dirt off the license plate. After checking the rest of the car found that the front grill and license plate was as dirty as before the car went through the wash. Both front and rear windows were dirty as well. I returned to the car wash and the staff at the Jiffy Lube Change were very helpful and tried to find someone in charge of the car wash but were unable find the attendant even though his vehicle was still parked there. This is the second time this has happened at this location if it happens once shame on you. If it happened again, shame on me for going back. read more

Broken Carwash - If you value your vehicle DO NOT GET IT WASHED HERE. Attempted to have my car washed today as this is one of the few places that has a touchless option (will try Mobil 1 now instead). Upon arriving there was a large line, which I soon found out was because one of the two wash bays was broken (this was not clear upon entering the car wash line). After an approximately 45 minute wait, my entire wash lasted less than 1 minute and involved the machine just spraying soap on the car then triggering the dryer! I had to chase down the attendant (an older Asian man) whose only advice was to call the phone number on the sign and come back tomorrow. Obviously this is not okay as allowing the soap to dry on the car would damage the finish. I had to argue with him to hose the car off. Terrible customer service! read more

I found this place to be over-priced in comparison to other "assembly line style" car washes. The wash area for the car is shorter as well. End result the car came out clean, most all dirt and debris was washed away as well as bird poo and bugs. I had an okay experience. As I've mentioned though, pricey for what it is. read more

The older, Caucasian attendant is always either yelling at another customer or yelling at me to drive in faster. I've seen a few people storm off and change their minds about the car wash because of his attitude. I'm going to take my business elsewhere. read more

So we headed next door to WashWorld for our complimentary car wash with our oil change. There was an attendant present who was very friendly and offered a pre-soak for our car. A few splashes of soapy water, the bristle brush went to work on our car like a toothbrush to the enamel. We had the "Better" wash ($14) which had all the basics of soap and wax wash with an undercarriage spray and ended with the typhoon air dry. All touch less in there. Overall, it was decent but there was a lot of water or soap residue left over. As a result, you could see a filmy white/clear swirl all over the car. Not impressed but it got rid of all the built up stuff over the winter I guess. It was free with the oil change, so can't complain. Don't expect a spotless wash like you can be guaranteed with a good ol' fashioned hand wash! I'd probably use this service to get rid of a tough top layer of dirt - it helps when they have their special offers of $6-8 washes occasionally. read more

$15 for the 'better' wash, and the bottom half of my car was still as dirty as it started. The only reason it gets 2 stars and not one is because of the attendant who washed all my windows and was really great before I got into the automatic wash. read more

Waited in line for a mid-range wash only to discover after leaving that half the car was still filthy. Went back and told the attendant who made a phone call and got a code for the best wash option. Said it was the best he could do and this meant another 20 minutes in line. Second run through on the "best" wash and the car was the same! Terrible results. Giving one star for the attendant, a mop topped Indian guy, who was nice and trying his best while getting soaked pre-scrubbing cars in 4°weather at this supposed "touchless" car wash. Poor fella. If you're not driving a Bentley stick to the places with brushes. Your car will be fine. Normally I'd recommend checking your car before leaving and demanding another wash if it's not clean but the second wash is just as ineffective. read more

Pai 15 bucks for a better car wash but the car is still dirty. I should have read the other reviews first. The only convenient part is the opening hours. Your car has to be quite clean for an effective wash. Kind of defeats the purpose of a car wash. Attached a photo of my car moments after my car wash. Still lots of dirt. read more

Car was still dirty after deluxe wash. Some major areas missed and showing dirt . No attendant was available so I called the posted number and left a message. No call returned. I called back after a few days and again left a message. Did this three times but no returned call. read more

There 100% clean guarantee is not accurate. The wash only cleaned half of the car. Attendant would not run the car through again. Next time I will go to Bashir's Auto Centre on Minoru Blvd in Richmond. read more

Don't come here , the car wash machine stole 20$ from my dad then they told him to bad pretty much. Second time we went here he came out with his truck heavily scratched up read more

20 bucks. Twenty. 2-0. My car is still dirty. I guess you pay for convenience. I'd rather take my car for a hand wash at Ultra Shine, where they'll vacuum the inside too- for the same price. read more

did the automatic wash, didn't work left a message.... no reply no nothing do not spend any money there!

I don't often use car washes but I decided to treat my car since I hadn't used a car wash in a year. Paid $21 for the "best" (most expensive) wash. Came out somewhat clean considering it hadn't been washed in a year... Somewhat meaning there were still spots of dirt and some dried bird shit left on it. I left and noticed a clunking sound as I pulled out of the driveway... Odd. Then more clunking as I drove, every time there was the slightest uneven area in the road. When I got to my destination I took a look underneath. A large plate had been knocked loose and had been hitting the underside of my car. I wasn't able to return to Wash World for a few hours, and when I did there were no attendants on duty. I am planning to return and speak to someone tomorrow but after reading these reviews I think that may be a waste of time. I am really hoping this is an easy fix and that its just a screw that was knocked off the plate. Very disappointed in not only the lack of quality in the wash but also the damage caused. I will update this review after I speak with the manager tomorrow. read more

This was the worst car wash I have ever had! The car was just as dirty when I left as when I arrived. The biggest waste of money. Don't go there. The 1 staff person was nice, but the car wash is useless. read more

Extremely unimpressed with this facility in Richmond. When I arrived at the facility I wanted the soft cloth wash option but the card machine was faulty so I had to choose the one by its side which is a no touch pressure wash. I clearly wasted my $17.00 !! The car was still dirty after the wash was complete to the point in places you could still rub your finger on the paintwork and see a line of dirt. My car was not overtly dirty before the wash and I am surprised it did not clean it, maybe the water pressure was low or the jets not aligned correctly. I also noticed the triple wax coating was definitely stronger on the the right then the left. I would not recommend this car wash unless they fix some issues. Like the other post said, no attendant available to talk to and the phone was not answered when calling the customer hotline. read more

Absolutely worthless car wash. It truly is "touchless". Your car, windows, side panels will be as dirty after the wash as before. They don't even have a vacuum on site to clean your interior. Total waste of money. read more

The attendant was nice. The wash removed the surface dirt but the car is not clean. Wiper marks still show on the windshield. When I properly cleaned off a spot where some dirt remained it was obvious how dirty the car still was. For the price, it is definitely not worth it. read more

Car is still dirty after the "better" wash, on top of that, the attendant suggested I pick up a rag and clean the wheels myself.
