Yeah there is a solution. Get a 5 gallon buckett from home depot or one of those that comes with a lid. Fill it with warm water and a couple of ounces of a rinseless wash solution like QEW (quicke and easy wash) or Optimum No Rinse. Put the bucket with lid in the front trunk with a few brushes and a half dozen micro fiber towels.
Drive your car to an undeground parking garage if you don't have garage in your home. Douse the car in the solution by holding the sponge over each panel. Let it soak for a few mintues. Then take the MF towels folded into quarters and dunk the towels in the buckett. With one long pass all the crap will slide off the car without scratching or swirling. FLip the towel with each pass. Save the rocker panels, and under the bumpers, and the wheel arches for last and use your older beat up towels. Reuse the left over water in your bucket to clean your wheels with the wheel face brush. Spray the car with a cleaning quick detailer before drying with a waffle weave towel. Clean car and you saved yourself $8 at the car wash and no swirls from the dirty wash mitts and drying towels they use.

Mobile detailers swear by this stuff when they make house calls at customers homes or their place of work where a hose is not available.
