Tap & Go Laser Car Wash

Tap & Go Laser Car Wash in Campbellfield, in Melbourne's north, runs a self-service dog wash alongside its car wash bays. The dog wash is a purpose-built unit in its own enclosed room, and the customer who described it in detail noted that both the water and the room itself are heated, so a wet dog is not left standing in the cold while being rinsed and dried off.

The practical details owners mention are worth knowing before a first visit. There is a chain and hook inside the bay to clip onto a collar so the dog cannot bolt mid-wash, payment is by card rather than coins, and a minimum spend buys a block of wash time. One reviewer suggests watching the demonstration video on the operator's website first for anyone who has not used a self-serve dog wash unit before. It suits owners who prefer to wash their own dog and want somewhere warm and enclosed to do it.
