Car Wash:How to Stop Spending Water?

Car Wash:How to Stop Spending Water?

Car cleaning requires a lot of water. Better than the car wash, here is a tip for washing your car at a lower cost by using a rainwater tank for free.

Washing your car wastes a lot of water:around 200 litres. On the other hand, drinking water is not necessary, rainwater is more than enough. So why not save our drinking water and stock up on rainwater?

Get a large barrel, a cistern, a barrel, a tank or any other XXXL container (from 200L to 5000L!). Place it under a gutter or in a corner of your garden. And now ? Sing and wait for the rain!

Personally, I left my water collector not far from my garage, so I avoid going back and forth between my little cistern and my dirty car! I got a bucket with a handle and all I have to do is help myself! I dip my bucket into my water supply and rinse my dear car!

Convinced? I'm waiting for your other tips for saving money when servicing your car in the comments!

Savings

Treat yourself to automatic car washes, car washes or other car cleaning systems, no thanks! Wasting drinking water, just for bodywork, even less. Collecting rainwater saves drinking water and money. Think about it. You will earn almost €20 of water with each wash!
