About Swish Car Wash Palmerston North

An automatic car wash on Tremaine Avenue in Palmerston North Central, run as part of the Swish chain. The main draw is a touch-free automatic wash that the site says takes about three and a half minutes here. Open-tray utes can go through the touch-free machine but not the soft-brush one. There are also manual wash bays and a dog wash. Payment is by PayWave, where a $20 hold is placed on the card for 24 hours but not taken, or by coins in each bay, or notes exchanged for tokens. Reviewers are mixed. One praises a $10 spend on five tokens for a pre-soak and a wash, and another says the vanilla foam did not work and they were still charged. A third found the drying step confusing, because the dryer does not come towards the car and there is no sign to say so. Our pick in Palmerston North for a quick touch-free wash.
