New York City car washes are licensed by the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection under the Car Wash Accountability Law (NYC Administrative Code, subchapter 33, and Title 6 of the Rules of the City of New York, subchapter HH), which conditions the license on a $150,000 surety bond naming the City of New York as certificate holder. A reduced $30,000 bond can apply with a qualifying collective bargaining or monitoring agreement — confirm your required amount with DCWP.
