According to GreenLifeGreenWallet, while washing your car at a car wash will cost you more, "this is the most environmentally friendly way to have your vehicle washed. Public carwashes are mandated by law to drain water into systems that are treated before being emptied into waterways. Commercial operations also use less water than the typical washing at home because of highly pressurized and targeted water jets."
Sometimes green is easier!
