Cancelling your Tidal Wave Auto Spa | Car Wash membership, step by step

  1. Log into your Tidal Wave Auto Spa | Car Wash account or app and look for a manage-membership or cancel option — that's the cleanest route when offered.
  2. If there's no in-app cancel, put it in writing — state your membership and effective date, and save a timestamped copy.
  3. Beat the next billing date by a few days so you aren't charged for another month.
  4. Pull the windshield RFID / plate tag so it can't auto-bill or re-enroll you.
  5. Watch two statements — if a charge lands after your cancellation date, dispute it with your card issuer.

Check a chain before you go
