Seems like just about everywhere I go the vacuums are broken

Where are you guys accessing vacuums when you need to vacuum your car ?

Northside / mid town preferred but everywhere I’ve found this is of town the hose is broken or the machine is down all together

I don’t need a car wash. Just the vacuums

There's a car wash by Kansas and Republic (yeah I know it's the other end of town but it's the only one I know of that you can use the vacuum without a wash). I forget the name of it but it's set off the road a bit

Yo. Tell you what.

I've got a shop vac and you can literally pull into my driveway and start vacuuming. Free of charge.

I've gone to blue iguana and just used their vacuum before. It was fine. I haven't come across a broken one.

Normally of course they don't want you doing this every day and not everybody should do it all the time, but I go through the car wash without vacuuming so often i figured a one time thing would balance.

There is one on east sunshine toward glenstone and one on south Campbell. Otherwise, a shop vac really is a good investment. And one time I plugged in my home vacuum into my garage and just used its hose, so that's also an option. If you're in an apartment, get a little handheld vacuum off Amazon. I still keep mine in the trunk.
