About Michael's Car Wash
Michael's Car Wash is a car wash in Long Island City, New York. It is listed at 36-21 21st St, Long Island City, NY 11106, which places it among the local businesses of Long Island City that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as oil change service, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
Car washes in the United States come in four main formats: the express tunnel, where you stay in the car while a conveyor pulls it through brushes or high-pressure jets; the full-service wash, where attendants vacuum and wipe down the interior after the tunnel; the self-service bay with a coin or card-operated pressure wand, foam brush and vacuums; and the hand wash, where a crew washes and dries the car by hand. Touchless tunnels skip the cloth brushes entirely and rely on chemicals and water pressure, which is gentler on paint but less effective on heavy grime. Most express chains sell an unlimited monthly plan, usually priced at two to three single washes, that is only worth it if you wash more than twice a month. Gas stations often bundle a discounted wash with a fill-up.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open Open 24 hours. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (718) 786-6228. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.
Its Google rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 587 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.
Long Island City is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Long Island City follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Very disappointing experience. I paid $35 expecting a proper car wash, but the quality was terrible. They barely cleaned the car, rushed through the job, and left many areas dirty. The staff didnβt seem to care about doing a good job or satisfying customers. It honestly felt like a waste of money. I would not recommend this car wash to anyone. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

I took my car to this car wash expecting professional service, but I left extremely disappointed. After the Detailing compound, I noticed damage to my vehicle that was not there before. What made the experience even worse was how poorly handled the situation manager said all black car is like that. I'm business for more than 10 years they never letf my cars like this. Customersβ cars should be much more careful and professional. I would not recommend this place if you care about your vehicle.

Got an express wash done for my car today, and it was quickβjust as the name suggests. The staff was prompt in cleaning the mats and drying the car after the automated wash, which helped keep the process efficient. What deserves a special mention? Thereβs a good range of car accessories available, along with useful items for road tripsβdefinitely a nice add-on while you wait. What could be better? The staff would benefit from better training on proper drying techniques to avoid swirl marks. Additionally, higher-quality drying cloths should be used. If your car isnβt coated, the current process may leave visible swirl marks. Also, staff needs to be careful while driving cars to the parking area, as the space leaves very little room for error.

I have a plan for full service car wash , when i try to make a payment, i show the cashier my number , she said thatβs number canβt be used! I HAVE TO ADD THE MEMBER NUMBER !! I said this is THE ONLY number that i have! She said NO!! She saidβ you have to call β. when i called they closed ! I said they closed! She said then I DONT KNOW , you have to pay !!! She told me that my plan is NOT FREE, she said i still have to pay $13 something! I said itβs very clear stated βYOU ARE ENTITLED TO STANDARD FULL SERVICE WASHβ! It took me 15 minutes to figure it out how to find out the number she talking about ?? !! I even asked her to try put the number on her end , but she ignored me!! At the end , i asked my friend , he told me i have to choose which location on the apps, but itβs also showing the SAME NUMBER that i showed her at the beginning! No matter i chose the location or no the number that i showed her at the beginning is the same number! Ridiculous! Wasting my 15 minutes !

I was a regular customer here many times taking multiple cars here and today their quality seemed too rushed. Some receipts in my car was not thrown away, wrappers too, my car got out of the wash and it was super wet. I noticed spots missed, their power wash missed my carβs back. I pay for the extreme wash every time and today was not worth the money.
