Car Wash in Waldwick, NJ - Straight Up Route 17
Waldwick is two square miles of quiet streets, mature trees, and one very busy train station — and not a single drive-through car wash. Ramsey Car Wash sits a short run north on Route 17, the same road that already cuts through your town. Express wash in about three minutes, free vacuums with every visit, and a full Quick Lube centre in the same lot.

Why Waldwick Cars Get Dirty Faster Than Most
Waldwick was built around the railroad, and it still lives around it. The station at Prospect and Hewson is a junction for both the Main Line and the Bergen County Line — some trains actually start and end their day here. Which means a lot of Waldwick cars spend eight, ten, twelve hours a day sitting in a lot, under trees, next to a working rail line.
That is a rough life for paint. Pollen in spring. Sap and leaf stain through summer. Brake dust and rail grit year-round. Then winter arrives, Route 17 gets salted, and every commute leaves a film on the undercarriage that nobody sees until the rust does.
Add to that a town with no drive-through wash inside its own borders. If you live in Waldwick, washing the car has always meant driving somewhere — so you may as well drive somewhere good.
Free Vacuum Station
Vacuums, air, and a mat wash station, included with every single wash. Not an upsell.
Touchless Entry
License plate recognition. No codes, no keypad, no fumbling in the rain.
Simoniz® Products

Undercarriage Wash
The part that actually matters after a salted run down Route 17.
Open 7 Days
7 AM to 8 PM, weather permitting. Before the train or after it.
Getting Here from Waldwick
506 Route 17 North, Ramsey — roughly three miles from the centre of Waldwick, and a straight shot with no backroads and no parking to hunt for.
From the Waldwick Train Station (Prospect & Hewson)
Out to Franklin Turnpike, north through Allendale, then onto Route 17 North. It’s an easy stop on the way home from the platform — the car gets washed before it ever gets back in the driveway.
From Franklin Turnpike / Borough Hall
Franklin Turnpike runs the length of Waldwick and feeds straight north into Allendale and Ramsey. Take it to East Allendale Avenue, then Route 17 North. Simple, no highway merging until the last minute.
From Route 17 Itself
Route 17 already bisects Waldwick. If you’re heading north on it for any reason work, errands, the Ramsey Route 17 station lot we’re on your right at 506 before you’re properly out of Bergen’s inner ring. No detour at all.
From Crescent Ave / Whites Pond / Borough Park
East side of town: cut over to Franklin Turnpike or Wyckoff Ave, north to Allendale, then Route 17. Under ten minutes from most of the neighbourhood.

Oil Change, Same Lot, Same Trip

Our lube centre is drive-in, no appointment. Every oil change includes premium Mobil oil matched to your engine, a 13-point inspection, tire pressure adjustment, fluid top-offs, Carfax logging, and a complimentary exterior wash.

Frequently Asked Questions - Waldwick Car Wash
Is there a car wash in Waldwick, NJ?
Waldwick itself is a small borough about two square miles and doesn’t have a drive-through wash inside its borders. The nearest full-service option is Ramsey Car Wash at 506 Route 17 North, a short run north on Route 17 from anywhere in town.
How far is Ramsey Car Wash from Waldwick?
Roughly three miles from the centre of Waldwick. Straight up Route 17, or via Franklin Turnpike through Allendale under ten minutes from most of town, including the station area.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Drive in any day between 7 AM and 8 PM for a wash. The oil change side is also drive-in, though you can book online if you’d rather lock in a time.
Do I get free vacuums?
Yes, vacuums, air, and the mat wash station are included with every wash, on every plan, including the \$12/mo Express.
Can I get an oil change and a wash in the same visit?
Yes, that’s the whole point of the setup. Both are at 506 Route 17 North, and every oil change comes with a complimentary exterior wash included.
Is the undercarriage wash worth it after driving Route 17 in winter?
It’s the section of the car that takes the most road salt and the section you never inspect. It’s included on most wash plans and \$4.99 as an add-on otherwise.
What are your hours?
Seven days a week, 7 AM to 8 PM, weather permitting.
