Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about booking a waterless wash, payments, and our service areas.

Why DacWash still uses a small amount of water despite being a "waterless" car wash?

DacWash is described as "waterless" because it eliminates the large volumes of water used in traditional car washing — typically 40 to 150 liters per vehicle — replacing them with a biodegradable cleaning solution that lifts dirt and grime without a hose or pressure washer. However, a small, controlled amount of water (typically under 1 liter per vehicle) is still used, mainly to:

  • Dilute the cleaning solution to the correct concentration for safe and effective application on paintwork.
  • Pre-treat heavily soiled areas (e.g. mud, bird droppings) to soften residue before wiping, reducing the risk of micro-scratching the vehicle's surface.
  • Rinse or dampen microfiber cloths during the wipe-down stage, ensuring debris is lifted away rather than dragged across the paint.

This minimal water use is what distinguishes DacWash from a fully dry/steam-only process — it keeps the finish scratch-free and professional-grade — while still representing a reduction of over 95% in water consumption compared to a conventional car wash. The "waterless" branding reflects this dramatic reduction in water use and the elimination of runoff/wastewater, rather than a literal zero-water process.

Before booking Do I need to be present before, during, or after the service?

Not necessarily
The app will notify you once the washer arrives. You can also add specific instructions for the washer to follow on arrival within the booking notes, any questions and details can be communicating by the app message or call. If you choose not to be present for the arrival of the washer, please ensure the washer can easily find your car among by indicating the plate or the exact colour and model when placing the booking.
Also be sure that the car is accessible, unlocked if requiring an interior cleaning, please note the washer is not allowed to drive your car for parking or any circumstances.
We strongly recommend checking the vehicle after the washer has completed the service to ensure you are thoroughly satisfied with the result !

Dacwash works hard to find washers who have a special attention to detail and are trustworthy, reliable, and skilled in their respective field. On top of that, all washers that operate on the DacWash platform have to go through a training program at the Dacwash HQ. All our Dacwashers are rated by our customers so you know that they are recommended by others.

Can you service my car anywhere?

Our equipment and method allow for cars to be washed in most places:

  • Any outside parking spot with enough space to work on the car;

Also, make sure that you are authorised to have your car washed at the spot you require your wash.

Can water be used in my area?

We do not use water as part of our dacwash service.

What is a waterless or eco-friendly car wash?

A waterless or eco-friendly car wash uses highly lubricated solutions to clean the entire vehicle.. This process is like how water removes dirt, but the our product formulation of a waterless car wash product is just as effective; we simply spray the surface of the car and then wipe it off with a microfiber cloth to avoid scratching. This process removes any light dirt or stains from the car’s surface.  A waterless car wash is only recommended for cars with light dirtiness that doesn't have excessive amounts of dirt, such as dried mud or other debris.

The technician didn’t come fully equipped

Our sincere apologies. If our Washer doesn’t have the right tools or supplies to complete your service, please let us know and we will send out the first available Washer to complete the job.  It’s imperative to us that you get the service that we promised to deliver.  Please contact our support team via email at info@dacwash.com so they can assist in making things right.

What happens if something was damaged or missing?

Dacwash professionals are independent contractors. If there is damage done to a vehicle by a washer, it is the customer’s responsibility to notify the washer immediately of the damage following the service. Once the washer leaves the premises and you opt not to inspect the vehicle, all rights to file a liability claim are waived. Dacwash IS NOT LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LIABILITY, LOST PROPERTY, PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE arising from the use of our service.

Why hasn't my washer arrived yet?

While we value your time and want to ensure we accommodate your busy schedule, washers may occasionally encounter certain roadblocks, including running late due to traffic or other unforeseen circumstances. Please give your washer a 15-minute window to arrive at your location. If for some reason no one shows up after 15 min has passed, please contact us via email at info@dacwash.com

We pride ourselves on being readily accessible! We have a dedicated customer support team if you have questions about a booking or if you need additional assistance in choosing the right package. Just email us at info@dacwash.com or via whatsapp +35699218486

What is your cancellation/rescheduling policy?

Dacwash policies are designed to promote a consistently reliable experience for customers and washers alike.  While we know schedules can change quickly, rescheduling or skipping a booking with short notices causes washers to miss out on other job opportunities as well as waste their time and they often incur travel expenses as a result. To be fair, we have to compensate the washer for their time and expect the same reliability from them.

You can cancel or reschedule 2 hours outside of requested booking time free of charge. Cancelling/Rescheduling a booking less than 2 hours before the assigned time will be subject to an automated euro 15 non-refundable fee.  

How do I tip my Dacwash?

Tips are obviously not mandatory but always appreciated by the washer who has worked hard to get your vehicle back in top shape by tipping directly the washer.

Can I upgrade my service?

Of course, simply upgrade the service by editing your current booking in the App.
