Cheap at $15! This is the cheapest that I have seen with good ratings. There's a cash and credit price so make sure you bring some cash. The gal doing the admissions was super friendly and super peppy. The actual emissions process was super quick and under 5 mins. read more

Needed to renew my tag, and used their site in East Cobb. Very easy drive through. I have used them since they built it!

Excellent service! I choose this place every time, recommend to many and they're satisfied as well. Price is right!!! read more

Emission Express - Side picture from the Chevron gas station, You can enter there too - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

My review still stands. this place is as amazing and reliable since. Price has been updated to $15 cash and $15.39 card. Not bad... not bad in this economy. I was serviced by an amazing car lover and enthusiast named Melissa. Wonderful soul with pink dyed hair. Quality remains superb with two lines/lanes. Go to the left if you have a smaller car that can fit inside their tiny shed. Go to the right if you have a bigger car where they will guide you into the back into an open space. I was in and out in less than 15 minutes. read more

Phenomenal customer service I was in and out. The guy who worked there also pointed me to where I needed to go and get my inspection sticker so I'm very grateful. read more

No bs, quality service, great value. Super great people. Can't recommend enough. Go here.

This is the best smog check place in Atlanta. Please tip the employee $5 or so.. it means a lot to them!

The service was fast and efficient. Our service rep handled our car very well. Very convenient to find. read more

Super fast emissions testing (I think it took less than 5 min) at such a reasonable price. As of today, it's $15.39 if you pay with card and $15 if you pay with cash. Highly recommend! read more

By Art's wife: This is a decent place to get emissions done. Price is good, people are nice, and the hours are pretty generous. Sometimes there is a line that doesn't feel fair, as it's in a very crowded gas station and people can "cut" easily. But the biggest downside--by far--is that you have to reverse out of the testing bay. The gas station is old and there is an unexpected, very high concrete block (curb? step?) that you can't see easily while trying to escape from one of the two bays. Both bays require backing out. Last time, I almost hit the high curb or step, but they shouted at me just in time and saved me from a bad scrape/dent risk. So this isn't my favorite place. Across the highway overpass, there is another emissions testing site on Chamblee-Dunwoody that has better space for an organized line AND I can pull through! read more

In and out in less than 10 mins, who can beat that? They were friendly. No wait. Professional and super reasonably priced ($15 w/credit card). Would definitely come back here year after year. Convenient location off 285 in Dunwoody. There is nothing more valuable than an efficient place for things that are usually a pain to have to handle! read more

Hands down the fastest service. I thought I'd be there for 10-15 minutes because of previous reviews but I was there for at least 5 minutes. The staff were friendly and professional. I only paid $15.39 because of card payment but if you have cash, it'll be $15. They also do tints so I'll be back soon! read more

Fast service for emissions. The cost as of today was $15.39, a great value. I was in and out.

"The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten." A cheap emissions test is no bargain when the testing center advertises being open but instead, sublet their emissions shack to a car wash crew. If you're going to announce to the public you're open for emissions testing Monday through Saturday, either perform the emissions tests or stop the false advertising. read more

Typically I don't get my emissions administered until my birthday month which is December. However, I received my registration renewal in the mail a bit earlier than usual, so, I decided I'd go ahead and get my emissions out the way sooner. My Experience: I arrived at the location around 9:30 this morning. There were two other cars ahead of me waiting for testing. My wait time in line was about 8 to 10 minutes. However, once it was my turn for testing I was there less than 5 minutes. John, was the emissions tech onsite. The customer service he demonstrated was superb from beginning to end. Warm smile and very welcoming demeanor. There is a lounge area right outside of the testing station which consist of water, couches and a tv. Service is so quick I didn't have to wait there. There's is also a few chairs located right next to the checkout area for you to wait as well. Trust me you won't be sitting long. EASY PEASY!! Hours: 9AM-6PM Monday - Saturday, closed on Sunday Cost: $11.99 , no gimmicks Payment methods: cash, debit/credit cards Wait time (once pulled into the testing station) : 5 mins or less I see why this emission location has excellent reviews and I'm very happy I paid Emissions Express a visit. I highly recommend, I guarantee you won't be disappointed. John is amazing! Tell him I sent you!... and YES, this location will be my preferred testing location going forward. A pleasant start to my Monday! read more

Efficient, easy and cheap. $11.99 for emissions compared to ~$25 elsewhere. I was getting my emissions done for the first time since moving to GA, and I was happy that I found this place on Yelp. Location is at the BP gas station just off 285. Came here around 2pm on a Friday and there were two cars in front of me. Within 5 minutes they were gone and I was getting my check done. You pull into a shed, get out of the car, barely sit down and you have your inspection certificate. Highly recommended! Mobile window tinting is also done here in case you would like to. read more

Emission Express - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Came here to get my emissions tested today. I was looking at all the available emissions test sites located in the area and this one had tons of reviews and the best rating by far! Plus the price couldn't be beat. It's located on chamblee dunwoody road right off I-285. It's directly to the right of a chevron gas station. When I got there, there was one car currently being tested and then one car waiting in line. The guy doing the tests was very fast though so I didn't have to wait long. I would say my test took less than 5 minutes as well. He asks you to leave the car running and step out while he takes care of the rest. After the test he prints you out the inspection report and you're on your way. The price is $11.99 if you pay cash and $12.29 if you pay with a card. Whichever payment option you choose it's still the cheapest emissions test I've seen so far! read more

What a gem! This place is located right off the freeway so access is easy. There are two lines and when I was there today, there was only one car ahead of me. They are very efficient and the testing is quick, so the line moves quickly as well. I waited about 5 minutes before it was my turn and pulled right in. You stay in the car the whole time and they do not drive your car. They have you pop the gas tank, turn your car to the ignition mode, hook up a reader, then the engine on. About 5 minutes later, you back out with the test paper in hand and there is no muss, no fuss. Pay in cash and receive a $.30 discount, probably to cover their transaction fees associated. I'll be back next year! read more

This emission test location is right off I-285 exit 30 in a gas station. So it is really convenient to hop in and get your emission test. The location is very popular, and it doesn't have a lot of parking available. Often, there are too many cars waiting that blocks the entrance of the gas station. It took me average 30minutes of waiting before I get my emission test. The service is really fast and friendly. Employees wear masks and they provide hand sanitizer too. COVID-19 starting package. It is $11.99 with cash, $12.29 if you use credit card. The hours is in my photo. They don't open on Sundays, so plan your visit accordingly. I have been going to this location for my emission tests for 5 years, and definitely I'm coming back again. read more

Emission Express - Hours and prices-Aug 2020 - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Quick and easy. Had me in and out in no time. Friendly customer service. Value was good!

Emissions Express has improved since my last visit. They are quite obviously "under new management" and they can take even more of the customers crowding into the small testing area. They added a second testing set-up behind the original building which is exclusively for cars after model year 2010 (I believe it's 2010). They will direct you on the proper space when it's your turn. The cost for emissions test here is much less than other locations and that's why they are, have been, and remain so busy. The wait is never too, too long and worth it to save ten dollars or so. Located on at the Texaco gas station just south of 285 at Chamblee Dunwoody Road, just look for the crowd of cars to the immediate right side of the station. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would, the scanner was not working on their end then the guy told me it was my fault the scanner was not working and that I needed to "get out of here right now" I went down the street to another emission testing sight and my car scanned just fine. I think this place is very shady be careful. read more

It's sort of a drive out but worth it for $15! It's in a somewhat secluded gas station. Make sure you leave space in front of the shed since the car needs to back out in order to leave. read more

Emission Express - I consider this really cheap still! I know it used to be like $13 cash but $15 is still cheaper than most places - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

$11.99 TEST FEE GREAT DEAL Arrived on a Friday afternoon. Located in a Texaco gas station shop. One car ahead of me. Waited about 3 minutes. I pulled my car in the shelter, a young petite Asian woman greeted me and told me I could wait in the waiting area and that it would take 5 minutes to complete the test. Waiting Room: free wifi, ac, water, tv, couch. read more

Fast and efficient. Had some kind of issue with my key fob but it was resolved. Good value overall.

Quick and efficient! There was a bit of a line (3 cars ahead of me), but it moved fast. As advertised, bc I paid with a card, it was $12.29. My old place is $25 and I'm giving them the side eye! Once I pulled into the bay, it may have taken 10 minutes. It's next to a gas station, right off the highway/road, so you def have to make sure the back of your car is off of the street. These guys were nice, pretty cool. Took care of business and had me in and out. I'd def go again. read more

No lines! Price was $15. Super fast service! Completely nice. 3 minutes away from Kroger so you can't print your sticker! It was extremely easy and convenient. read more

It is so weird to say I have a favorite emissions place that is true adulting. Let's face it emissions is not fun and no one wants to do to it. However, the state disagrees and so here we are. Wish I had discovered this place earlier in life. I am clueless when it comes to anything auto and depend on reviews from others. This is what led me to Emission Express. Location is easy to get to and find just look for the Texaco. There are two lines because depending on when you come it can get backed up. The guy working here is very friendly and gets you in and out quickly. I have gone around the lunch hour and right after work; both times were busy but not anything crazy. There is a waiting area but they are so quick you really don't have time to walk over there! $11.99 cash payment and $12.29 card payment. read more

Scenic used to be my favorite location to get my emissions checked - quick and easy but now they very unreliable with their hours and never there when you need them. I had to take my business elsewhere and I do not like the service here. The owners are very demanding and rude. So now I have to go look elsewhere again... read more

They did the job. But the inspector there today was so rude, he didn't speak English well. And was yelling at me to sit down outside my car. I was like Bro relax. He thought I wasn't going to pay. Guy was definitely weird but they got the job done. read more

An emissions test is only $12 (11.99 to be exact) here! Came on a weekday morning so there was no wait. The whole process only took a few minutes. There is a small shed with a couch, TV, and complimentary bottled water while you wait. The gentleman running the shop was very nice. Will definitely come back for the annual emissions test. read more

Soft Drink Refill Speed: There's a Food Mart Next Door This is about as good as a state-mandated experience can be. While they do not (to my knowledge) take reservations, even with 3 cars ahead of me, the wait was about 20 minutes. While they run the test, there's a nice indoor waiting area with bottled water, TV, and WiFi. Plenty comfortable, but the whole process takes only a few minutes, so it doesn't even really need to be. There's also convenience store right there. The technicians have always been friendly, professional, and efficient. And most importantly, they fulfill the state requirement for about $12, about the least you can find it. At this price point, Emission Express could justify being a much less nice place than it is. But luckily, it's both great and cheap, so I don't plan to take my car anywhere else. read more

It's actually open unlike the one across the street! The guy was super nice and process was fast. If you're going around 4-5pm, there will be a line. I had two people ahead of me and when I left at 5pm, there were four cars queuing behind me. Sign said $11.99 cash and $12.29 credit/debit read more

This place was incredible. When I drove up here was a really long line and I was concerned about how long it would take but they had two lines running and got through the line super fast. They were helpful getting you around the other cars and directing you. Really nice guys even working in the heat. The waiting area is a bit sad looking and is really just a shed, but it's a very very short wait so it's not a problem. The truly amazing part about this emissions place is the price. There is nowhere else cheaper or even close to the $13 you pay here. I've paid $25 elsewhere in Atlanta. read more

Highly recommend. I'll keep this short. Fast, cheap ($12!!) and it works for emissions testing. Not much else to say other than I hope it doesn't get too popular as it's been my go to for the last few years. read more

Great price and great service! Glad I found it. We will bring all my vehicles there for inspection

Not kidding- this was an express EXPRESS experience. There were 2 cars ahead of me and I think I waited less than 20 minutes in total counting my emission test . The gentleman was very professional throughout the process and it was a total of $11.99. read more

Quick and inexpensive emissions. My fave place to go to. They have a little shack with free bottled water while you wait and free WiFi. Doesn't get better than that. read more

I switched up emission testing places this year because I noticed that the usual place I go to (which is only across the way) had a significant drop in stars due to being short staffed. Emission Express was possibly faster since there are 2 men performing tests at the same time. I stopped by on a Monday around 1pm. I probably waited in line for about 8-10 minutes, but as soon as I got to the testing part, it was really no more than 5 minutes. I still like that the pricing for emission testing here is 11.99 and they're especially efficient. read more

I had gone to this place every year before the pandemic, but I went there today and it was a different person than in years past. He was not wearing a mask and as I don't know his vaccination status I asked if he had a mask he could wear before he got in my car to hook up the testing equipment. He replied, "I don't wanna do that." I just turned around and went to the place across the street, where the attendant is wearing a mask. So sad that this person doesn't understand the value of keeping his customers safe. read more
