Car Washing Tips
Commercial car washes recycle water on-site or send it to a water treatment facility, where it is cleaned and returned to the water cycle.
Washing your car at home can use two to three times more water than a commercial car wash, and the water that flows into the street can't be recovered and reused.
If you wash your car at home, make sure you put a nozzle on your hose, or you will waste water and may be cited for a water waste violation.
Get money-saving coupons
The Water Authority has teamed with local commercial car wash facilities to offer coupons that help you save both money and water. See our Water Smart Car Wash Web page to get coupons and find a car wash near you.
