    Specifically looking for tempe/chandler/ahwatukee area but all suggestions are welcomed, as they may help others out. Use to like spot not but seems like they are always out blowing dust around with their leaf blowers. Then tried salem boys but their equipment doesn't work half the time. With that being said any suggestions are appreciated as I am in need of a new location. Thanks!

    On Chandler and Kyrene there is a self service car wash. It's just north of Chandler on Kyrene Rd.. I have't used it for years but when I did it was nice.

    It's a great spot, just seems like lately I pick the only vacuum that doesn't work and it's a pain to track down someone to get your dollar back
