Why not just use the tub at home? A self-serve station gives you a raised tub you do not have to bend over, a sprayer that reaches the undercoat, a proper dryer, and — the part everyone forgets — someone else cleans the hair out of the drain. Most places supply shampoo and towels in the price.

Common questions

How much does a self-serve dog wash cost?: Usually $10–$20 per dog, and that normally includes shampoo, towels and a dryer. Pet store chains sit at the lower end; standalone wash bars charge more but tend to have better dryers and stronger water pressure.
What do I need to bring?: Just the dog and a leash. Most stations supply shampoo, conditioner, towels and a dryer, though some charge extra for towels. Bring your own brush if your dog is heavily shedding — house brushes are often worn out.
Do I need an appointment?: Almost never — self-serve bays are first-come, first-served. The exception is a handful of grooming salons that rent their tub between appointments; those want a call first, and we mark the ones that take walk-ins.
