Rising Tide Car Wash

This car wash is always well-maintained, and the staff are not only friendly but genuinely go the extra mile. I really appreciate the free vacuums, cloths, and cleaning spray—they make it easy to detail the inside of your car at your own pace. The membership is definitely worth it if you like to keep your car clean regularly—you can come as often as you like! What makes this place extra special is knowing it’s run by individuals on the autism spectrum. It’s become part of my weekend routine and a little moment of calm in my week. Supporting businesses like this helps build a more inclusive community, and I’m proud to be a customer. If you're looking for great service and a good cause, this is the car wash to choose. Special shout out to Oyvind who always comes by to offer free tire shine and car scent! No matter how hot it is out here he is always smiling and working hard.

My car wasn't that dirty to begin with but it could of used deeper cleaning. In some places where it wasn't dirty, there was dirt after they were done. They avoided cleaning around my car seat so there is just sand all around it where the seat is exposed. I wasnt expecting them to take the seat out but at least get the obvious spots around it. The car drive through wash itself wasn't very efficient. As im pulling in it's hard to see the man inside holding a sign when my car windows were already bring sprayed. He needed to signal me and I had to lower my window, as he is telling me to put my car into N gear i get sprayed in the face with what ever floor cleaning chemical or water so that wasn't great. He didn't seem phased by it... My car still looks dirty on the outside. I felt like they entire service was *too* quick which made me suspicious. Not worth the highest package of cleaning. I could of done a better job myself. Wish i could get my $44 back... The only thing they didn *ok* was vacuuming the floors. They didn't even clean the sticky stains on my car doors AT ALL. My tire rims were still completely dirty even though it's included in the package. Very disappointed. Would not come back for these services.

They're a good car wash. You have the opportunity to vacuum the inside for free, then just do the exterior through them, or of course, have the whole car done by them. They do a GREAT job outside, but especially the inside The bonus is They hire a lot of autistic and Down Syndrome young men They word really hard, and are so nice. I love that they focus on them, their pride in their work is so obvious!! Love them!!@

Thank you so much Andy and Abraham for helping me get back into my car after my car auto locked with my keys inside when moving the vacuum hose to the other side of my car. I appreciate you both so much for going above and beyond customer service! Also the gentleman that greeted me when I drove up for my car wash was welcoming and helpful! What surprised me as well was a few staff offered to shine my wheels with genuine kindness. I highly recommend Rising Tide Car Wash! 😎

If you think a car wash is just suds and vacuums, Rising Tide will set you straight. This place isn’t just a business—it’s a movement, a social experiment that actually worked. Born out of a father and son’s determination to create meaningful employment for people on the autism spectrum, Rising Tide opened its doors in 2013 and flipped the script on what a “disability business” looks like. Today, about 80% of their team is on the spectrum, and they’ve proven what should have been obvious all along: with the right chance, people thrive. Now, the car wash itself? It’s not touchless—so if you’re precious about your paint job, that might be a sticking point. And yes, they’ll pitch you on the monthly membership like a barista upselling you on oat milk. But honestly, that’s the hustle of modern America—recurring revenue is king, and they’ve just caught on. Beyond that, the service is solid. These guys are quick, polite, and consistent. You get in, you get out, and your car comes back looking like something you’d actually want to drive again. The vacuum stalls are clean, the grounds are kept up, and you never feel like you’re rolling the dice like at those sketchy corner washes with duct-taped hoses. Is it the best wash in the world? No. But it’s more than soap and water—it’s dignity, community, and a reminder that business can be better when it’s built on purpose. Rising Tide isn’t just cleaning cars; it’s proving that inclusion works. And that’s worth the price of a wash.
