Great service, great prices! I came here for a full car detail, because I was trying to sell my car. I couldn't wait to post it online once they finished with it, and within a day, I got 11 offers on the vehicle, including one for the price I listed it for. The only complaint I have is that I had to wait longer than they expected, but my car was pretty dirty so I don't hold that against them. I came back the next day for an oil change, and the people I interacted with on day 2 were just as friendly as day one. I'll be coming here again! read more

They were open when I needed on a Sunday, and are among the few who still offer interior cleaning instead of DIY stations. My 19-year-old car looked amazing. Better than 11 years ago; better than after a full detailing (interior and exterior) at twice the cost at the "full service" one we've typically used. No exaggeration: my car looked so good that I almost couldn't go through with selling it. It's tempting to keep this secret to myself, lest they get too busy, but: better outcome, better price, better hours...Thank you! read more

I went in for an oil change and the technician had a major attitude. once I got home I noticed something leaking underneath my car. it turns out that they didn't tighten the bolt. Luckily my mechanic happened to be there working on my generator. He tightened the bolt for me. My mechanic kept repeating, I can't believe that. incompetence. read more

Everyone employed here is fantastic! Super fast services and everyone here is super genuine and knowledgeable. I came in for a battery replacement and they changed my oil and replaced my headlight! Cannot recommend highly enough, especially if you need work done quick! read more

Unprofessional!! Took my car through the wash on 02/05/2022. This resulted in my rear view mirror coming completely off! When attempting to speak management and owner Luis he told me their was nothing he could do it about it was loudly speaking over me and had poor communication. I WOULD NEVER TAKE MY CAR HERE at this place of service. read more

I went in this past Sunday for a Super Interior Detailing (the $49 one). I was super excited because my car needed a deep cleaning and the price was right. This detail was suppose to include a deep cleaning of all plastics in the car. My car went through the wash and the detailers (2 high school aged looking boys) only took about 10 minutes on my car, so I already knew something was up. I go out to my car and am so disappointed! It genuinely looked like the only thing that was done was they wiped down my windshield and the main plastics near the radio. I am SO disappointed. I called and luckily I got a refund, which is the only reason I am giving this 2 stars instead of one. I do not recommend! read more

See all

Spoke with the manager the day before about having my car detailed and wash and wax . Was told it would be $90.00 and the price changed to $100.00 which wouldn't of been bad wash and wax missed some spots but the young man recleaned the spots for me . When I made it home I was checking out the inside and noticed alot is spots that should have been cleaned. So instead of driving all the way back to the other side of town. I ended going to auto zone myself and picking up leather cleaners and a mr.clean pad.and had to go back over my car the back to my Escape hadn't been wiped down still had spots in the seats , center console, doors, and above the seat belt on the plastic. Was told it would take 2.5 hours took 3.5 hours . The pictures I'm adding are the pads that I went back over the inside with. The girl who took my car was super sweet, and apologetic. I just wont be going back S. Yuhas read more

My car was a hot mess, but the owner took care of me. He identified the source of the loud noise emanating from my exhaust pipe and fixed it. He also replaced my license plate, which had previously been welded on by years of Midwest Winters, and he connected me with a friend up the street who could replace my broken windshield. This will be my go-to for all my future car related needs. read more

The cover of one of my side mirrors was fell off and broke in half in the car wash. The manager on duty took my number and said he would look into ordering a replacement. I never heard back from him, so I started calling once a week to see if the part had arrived. He appeared to keep forgetting who I was and losing my number. A month later, he said his boss (owner of the car wash) had been made aware of the situation was going to take care of it. I got the owner on the phone, and he said he didn't know anything about the situation, and that if the cover of my mirror broke off, it was because something was wrong with it to begin with and it wasn't his car wash's responsibility. I told him I was frustrated because If that's your policy, why did your on-site manager spend a month telling me he was ordering a new part and it would be arriving in the mail any day now? He said he'd call me back after following up with his manager, but he has not. read more

What a great place! Someone came up and helped me as soon as I pulled up. It took an hour for my car to be finished, but it really needed to be cleaned. They did a great job! read more

Great car wash! Free vacuum wish drying rags, glass cleaner, all purpose cleaner. This car wash has a lot of options and add-ons for your car. The car washes ranged from $6-$20 I believe. They offered car detailing too. They even had the multicolored foamy soap which is the best part in my opinion! read more

I came in with a car I just got. It was in a state BUT these guys took care of me like I came in a Cadillac. I'm so impressed by the friendly service. The smiles. The speed. I'm sure they haven't seen a car in this state before but they handled it like pros. Just fantastic! read more

Great place to get a car wash! If you're either needing a quick wash or you know you'll be needing several washes a month this is the place to go in Athens. For as low as $6.00 you can get a decent wash with towels and vacuum included or you could invest in a $20.00/month membership which includes unlimited $11 washes all month. Great customer service-somebody helped me understand the varies memberships and another associate checked up on me later on. Definitely coming back! read more

Customer service was exceptional! Even though they were extremely busy all of the staff were happy and polite!! But the price for an oil change, no bells or whistles, was outrageous. I even requested they NOT check my in cabin air filter, engine air filter, brakes or tire pressure (I was in a hurry and had just replace the air filters) and it was almost $60 after tax........ I do not have a luxury vehicle, just an older Nissan Frontier. I usually pay $17.10 at the dealership....... read more

Having kids keeps my car...messy let's say. Every time I go my car leaves looking like new. I found that their flat monthly rate works best for me (I choose the $20 option). If I wanted to go through the car wash everyday I could. The only thing I wish they would do better is keeping someone inside to help people checkout when needed. read more

Haven't been to many car washes but this has been the best I've been too. I took my Kia Optima in to clean the insides after my kitty went berserk in my car and threw up and tossed kitty litter everywhere. Personally I tried to vacuum it but there were many hard to reach spots and kitty litter is a small particle . The A-team over here cleaned all the insides of my car in probably 10 minutes. Wanted to leave a tip but I did not know if that was customary. Would definetly return read more

Just tried this place for the first time for an oil change. Nice facility, friendly folks and a free car wash with the service. This is not an intensive care place for your car. They do the simple, routine stuff for cars that are in good condition. Oil, battery, air filter, brakes, windshield wipers, wash, detailing, tire rotation...that kind of stuff. I had a good experience there. read more

I've been a monthly paying member for 3 years now , I wash my car at least twice a month and have never had any issues. Today was the first time that a minor issue occurred during my wash. At first I wasn't even going mention it, but TJ was walking around to make sure all the towels and cleaning supplies were full. I mentioned the issue and he was totally understanding. He sent me to Justin in the oil change bay and he went above and behind to fix the issue. Not only was the problem resolved he fixed another issue totally unrelated. I greatly appreciate their service and will continue to be a monthly member as long as I live in Athens!! read more

Great service. Amazing car wash tunnel. Car was super clean. I upgraded to the full service for 10 dollars which I thought was very reasonable. I dont know about you but when its 95 degrees outside, having someone clean your car for you is a blessing. My overall experience was great. Really enjoyed the waiting room with the 4 TVs on the wall. read more

Wanna get clipped? The people that clean car on outside and in were wonderful. The management is just like their vacuum cleaners-----they SUCK!!!!! They want to charge you extra to do the things to your vehicle that is part of the job. The manager walked away when I told him what I seen and would not listen. If I could give a lower rating I would. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE. If you want to get clipped go to the barber shop or here. read more

The time period I had the plan I was a satisfied customer. HOWEVER after cancelling I have continued to be billed for 3 months after stopping service. I call and no one picks up the phone. Today will be the 3rd trip I have made to speak with management and get a refund. They tell me every time that my plan is cancelled. Well it isn't. read more

Athens Car Wash is a phenomenal improvement compared to the old management/owner of the previous car wash. All the staff was friendly and helpful. I got their $30 inside/outside package and was pleased with the detailing. I would recommend giving them a try! read more

The car was has been great, I also enjoy their vacuums and the towels and sprays that are provided.

My car was very dirty inside and out and Athens Car Wash noticed it without me having to tell them anything and went above and beyond with cleaning it!! It honestly looks like it just came off the lot! Thank you so much! Outstanding customer service!! read more

These guys are the best in town. Best facility, machines, and staff. I have the unlimited monthly wash plan with them and it's a great deal. In addition, I also bring in an oversized vehicle which is too big for the drive through wash sometimes. They do an excellent job with hand wash and detail as well. Glad to have them on the east side of Athens! read more

Went in for oil change Friday 8/14/20 tech completed in 15 minutes. Once i arrived back to home noticed oil leaking from under car. It continued to leak through out day. Went back Saturday morning to have them look at it. The tech went under car and stated he could see were it was leaking from drain plug and tried to tighten forcefully enough to shake car 3 times and stated that's all he knew to do and to come back Monday if it did it again. Once i arrived back to home and checked 10 minutes later it was still leaking and he did not place the oil cap back on the top of the engine so i drove home without an oil cap on the top and a cross threaded drain plug underneath. Went back Monday and 3rd tech stated it was real tight and there was nothing he could do and did not see oil. I asked him to undo drain plug and thread it back in properly and refill oil. He stated he could do that he tried to undo but must have noticed it was stripped and came back up to say there was nothing he could do. Then I left and drove 3 miles down road to University Tire who could barely get the drain plug to come out due to crossed threaded and the overly tightened. I had to pay them $752 for new oil pan installation so they could just added oil back to the car. Then after multiple attempts with this Valvoline location they refuse to pay for repair due to their techs damaging the oil drain plug and hole to oil pan. Currently having to have consumer lawyer file suit on this privately owned center as well as Valvoline Inc. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO HAVE ANY AUTO WORK COMPLETED HERE. OR KNOW IT'S AT YOU OWN RISK. THEY BASICALLY HAVE CAR WASHERS CHANGING OIL IN THERE. If anyone would like to contact me to discuss getting reimbursed the $752 that I had to pay for repair in order to be able to drive my Honda CRV then please email me at starnesgeorgia@gmail.com then can make phone contact from there. The store manager or owner named Lois only asked me to leave or he was going to call police when i went into store with my receipt from repair and he refused to cover anything. Very poor quality service and so called mechanics working there daily. I will be following through with filing law suits if this does not get taken care of in the next 24 hrs. Thank you. This is the location at 4350 Lexington Rd. Athens Ga 30605. read more

Once was enough. It's hard to get just the basic car wash: you have to navigate through several screens that are designed to get you to select options that cost more. And then the wash my Subaru Outback got was mediocre --- clearly missed areas on rear hatch and along body molding and door handles --- also vacuum I got was super weak. Phooey. read more

This place is awesome. I'm poor so I got the $6 wash and then vaccumed, cleaned the glass, etc. for free. Glass cleaner towels and degreaser ready for you to use. Full service prices are wonderful and I think I'll go that way next time. Cheers. read more

I decided to treat myself to a Superior Interior Detail today so that I can maintain a nice, clean car throughout the school year. The people there were courteous and helpful, and within an hour my car looked and smelled and felt amazing. I will definitely be going there again! read more

Terrible service .Had my car washed and my whole front interior was wet when finished . After confronting the manager and showing him about it . He told me my car has a leak . When I started my car the battery light also came on flickering. I looked in my dashboard and my whole air filter got wet . I left my number for the owner and he never bothered to call . Don't get your car detailed or washed over there. Unless you are looking to replace parts. read more

I used to go here regularly for oil changes and car washes. It used to be good but has gone down hill. Oil changes are 70 dollars where other places charge 50. Took an hour and a half for an oil change and left my air intake plug unplugged. Engine was overheating and they didn't spot that I had transmission coolant celluloid in their "18 point check," wound up getting a new car after they charged me 100 for something that didn't fix the problem. They wanted to "start small and work from there," meaning they wanted to milk me for every dollar I have. Would not recommend. read more

They are doing rush jobs. Detail not done correctly and not given cars proper care. Go there to do your car yourself but do not pay for Services. The staff does rush jobs. Very Mad read more

Horrible. Clearly business hours are until 7:00 pm. They closed shop prior to me arriving at 6:20 pm. Called. No answer. Just an answering machine. Had a car lot full of parked cars which were clearly employees sitting on the clock closed up and not working. Not returning phone calls. Not answering the phone. I sat there for 10 mins. No one came to help me. The pulled the vertical blinds so they didn't have to see me all the while the cars of the employees which I counted were 7 parked outside and not being detailed left me with questions unanswered and no one bothered to help or inquire on me sitting out in my car and even blew the horn to let them know I was outside. I wouldn't recommend this business if this is how they treat their customers. The time was 6:20 pm on June 7, 2020. Management should you read this, it might be time to clean house and take back your business from the unprofessional lack of care and worthless employees read more

They did a horrible job cleaning my car, inside and out. One of the machines even scratched my window up. I will update on what they do about this. read more

Beware....took my car in today (Monday) and had a car wash and oil change, and they told me I needed new front brakes....it even says it on the receipt. I knew it wasn't true because I picked up my car 3 days ago (last Friday) from my mechanic of 20 years and he just replaced the front brakes! read more

Great car wash. Love that they have towels and free vacuum available after and the wash itself does a good job.

Always extremely nice and helpful staff. The car wash does a great job. After the car wash they have free vacuums and different cleaners for your car with some dry towels to wipe it all down. They have also shampooed my seats, removed decals and done oil change/tire rotations to my truck and it has been great every time. Highly recommended. read more

Hello! First time I've ever written a negative review, unfortunately. On the plus, I've been here previously and it was fine. Today, however, they were severely understaffed. I paid with my credit card for an interior detail ($49) and added a wash for $10, making the total $59. I went through the wash and waited for someone to take care of my detail. After 15 minutes someone helped me (and I get it, they were understaffed and their mechanics from next door tried to help). One mechanic asked for my receipt, which I never got back, while another told me they were too understaffed and aren't doing interiors today. Ok- no problem. I was waiting for my refund, and I was given only $10 in cash, rather than a merchant credit on my credit card account. I also didn't get a refund for the interior, and instead got a refund for the wash only- the service I received. Honestly, probably the worst customer service I've had. Ever. I wouldn't bother coming here, unless you want to just hand them free money. read more

The nicest and most helpful workers! I'm clueless about cars and everyone was incredibly helpful and, for once, I didn't feel like I was taken advantage of when it came to price or services charged. Highly recommend read more
