About Costco Car Wash

Located at 4401 4th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98134, Costco Car Wash operates as a car wash serving Seattle in Washington. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

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.

The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. Typical hours are 6 am–8:30 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. You can reach Costco Car Wash at (206) 622-3136; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. Its website is costco.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.4 out of 5 from 445 reviews, which is a strong result for a car wash in Seattle and suggests consistent service.

Seattle is in Washington, in the Pacific Northwest, where winters are mild and wet, summers are dry and pleasant, and outdoor recreation drives a lot of local business; hours change little through the year. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Seattle 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.

I love Costco!! But! be careful in the car wash if the person doesn’t know how to drive in front of you. We got stuck behind a Tesla that didn’t know how to drive (they put their foot on the break) and our car got bumped.

We got in the line to get a car wash at about 2 o’clock and we had to bail out the exit before we even got into the car wash at 2:19 because we had a meeting that we needed to be at at 2:30 that was five minutes down the road so we waited almost 20 minutes in this car wash line which was brutal. I don’t know what was going on with the car wash but we should have went to Brown, bear car wash cause it is definitely not worth the savings if there’s a line. I mean you’re gonna save what two dollars so that you can sit in line for 30 minutes it’s insane.

How did this car was get 4.5 stars!?! Normally, Costco does most things right, but not this time. I decided to try their car wash for the first time today and was really disappointed. While the price point was nice, my car did not come out clean at all. The quality felt only a tiny step above a basic Shell gas station car wash. I think I’ll save my money and go back to Brown Bear, which I use regularly. Their quality is much better, and they even offer free vacuums to clean the interior of your car. I wouldn’t recommend this car wash - save your money.

In theory, a Costco car wash sounds like a great idea — and at $7.99 for a “premium” wash, it feels like it should be a solid value. The operation itself is efficient: the lines were long, but they moved at a pretty good pace. The two attendants were working hard — one managing tickets and payments (even running transactions for customers who hadn’t prepaid) and the other guiding cars smoothly into the automated wash. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. The actual wash was very underwhelming. My car wasn’t that dirty to begin with, yet there was still a noticeable amount of dirt left behind, and several areas were missed entirely. For a premium wash, the end result just didn’t cut it. Usually Costco services are top-notch, which makes this even more disappointing. In this case, it felt like a waste of $7.99. Not recommended unless quality improves.

I decided to take the risk and try my Tesla Model Y out through the Costco Car wash. I saw a Model X Plaid and Tesla Model 3 Performance go through without any difficulties so I gave it a go. No curb rash on my wheels, and no scratches or swirl marks anywhere. Definitely worth the $8. Car came out looking 99% clean.
