Ethical car wash recommendations

[GeorginaLP]

Hi, does anyone know of a good ethical car wash in the neighbourhood? I?m worried about modern slavery and don?t know where to take my car. Thanks

Carwashes and other services are lowly paid. Tip your attendant, ad you would your waiter or hairdresser.

There is a CofE car wash app you can download from this site:

If you're that bothered then maybe clean it yourself ?

Not everyone has easy access to water or a convenient place to wash a car.

The car wash at Sainsbury's / Champion Hill has always been great for me - friendly, helpful staff and a good job, but I've just seen this thread: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?30,1918531

Worth keeping an eye out for schools / charities / local sports groups doing fundraising car washes.

Or get a mobile valet company out and support a local business.

Are you in Mauritania? The labour's cheaper than the mineral water.

They get paid a day rate and if it's quiet they're sent home without pay. They get to keep any tips, so please don't take advantage of them

Seriously? Bucket. Tap. Sponge. Car parked in road/street. Job done.

Honestly - words fail me.

People who are rudely saying "do it yourself"....get a grip.

We all pay for other people to do services for us and also do jobs that provide services for other people. That's what makes the world go round.

Ever bought a sandwich rather than make one yourself?

Besides, some people may have physical reasons why washing their car could be difficult or impossible.

And even if they don't, they want someone to do a perfectly normal job for them.

Are you seriously having a go?!

Probably the same reason you are - it's ridiculous. simple

Someone looking for an ethical car wash sounds applaudable to me, not ridiculous

I agree with you. It would similar as trying to find a place for a manicure that didn?t have people trafficked into this country. There were recent raids done in Peckham after reports of women being trafficked..
