Watershed watch discount cards

Protecting our creeks and bay is as easy as taking your car to a car wash where they recycle and treat water — to prevent dirt, grease, brake dust and soap from entering storm drains! Check out this list of car wash providers to see if they offer a discount! Discounts for other watershed friendly vendors are also available!
