Washing the car (lemmy.nz)

What are people's approaches to washing cars? It seems the options are:

Wash at home on grass (not an option for us)
Wash at home on the driveway (technically allowed where I am, but pollutes the rivers, although may be OK if you can find an eco wash and wax product?)
Go to an auto car wash (not too expensive, but likely to scratch up your car)
Pay someone for a hand wash (costs hundreds)

I just washed our car on the driveway, and tried to minimise run-off going into storm water, but it didn't work that well. Have found this product, but no idea if it's any good, or greenwashing.

Any other ideas?

Thanks, yeah, someone else mentioned these as an option.... good to hear they work well.
