Great hand applied pre wash bug soap. And I used the vacuum and shop rags etc for an hour, no problem.

It was 7:45pm, on a Wednesday night and my car was filthy. Normally I work late and don't get home until after these car washes are already closed, so today I was accidently going to be *that guy* that shows up right as a place is about to close at 8:00pm. Great. I pulled into the well-lit entrance which was easy to find and involved a slightly tight U-turn, but thankfully my car has a steering wheel so no problemo. They offered the normal car wash option packages, although, the available options are on the higher priced side of things at $6, $12, $16, and $20. The $20 option looked sweet - it even comes with train noises! - but noting the current time, I settled for the $12 option. I pulled my car into the wash and the attendant comes out with a brush and starts scrubbing away at my dirty car. Ok, this is normal for the $20 option but at $12 I figured the attendant would maybe knock the clumps of mud off of my wheel wells. Nope, this guy goes to town scrubbing for about 3 minutes. Maybe they have junky automatic brushes and this guy has to put in extra effort to make sure the car comes clean the first time? Maybe my car is just extra dirty? It was definitely dirty but I can't imagine an *automatic* car wash relying on minimum-wage employees to prep cars this thoroghly. Maybe he just wants to make sure that I don't ask to wash it again since it's so close to closing time. Seems likely. As the car washed, I engrossed myself in a phone game. Out the chute, I drove on to the vaccumes. Since my floorboards looked like someone had tried to save $1 by getting dirt and gravel from random places one handful at a time, I'd have to be quick. 5 minutes into vaccuming, at 7:55pm, the attendant comes over. Great, this guy wants to close and I'm fudging his closing process, I thought to myself. "Need any help?" he asked. "No, I'm ok, I just have to vaccume out the driver's side and then I'll be out of your hair. Thank you for asking though. Sorry to come in last minute like this." i said. "It's no problem at all! Well, let me know if you need anything, I'll be more than happy to help." he said. He smiled after he spoke. It was a kind smile, one that service people generally reserve for when they actually want to help someone. As he walked away, I returned to my vaccuming, wondering if he may have been genuine. As 8:00pm rolls around, the lights don't automatically turn off, the vaccume stays on, and the attendant isn't giving me the cold stare from the visible office. A couple of minutes go by and he comes back outside. "I noticed you might be able to use these." he said, as he hands me 3 packs of disposable dash cleaner cloths. I had brought some armored dash cleaner from home, but sure I'll try these, why not. "Thank you, I really appreciate it. I'm almost finished." I say while trying to hurry and finish my cleaning process. Surprisingly, the cleaner cloths actually worked really well at getting the mud off of the interior dash and footboard sections. As I'm getting in my car to leave, I manage to catch his eye once more and I motion for him to come over to the car. "I really appreciate your professionalism and assistance tonight, it makes me happy to finally get this done." "No problem at all Sir, have a great day!" he says with another smile. It's genuine. I can tell. He really did just want to help. "Hey, one more thing" I say. "You've given me really exceptional service tonight, is there something I can do for you? Do you have a survey I can fill out or something?" He thought for a moment. "Actually, there is something. Our search engine reviews are great, but our Yelp page looks pretty bad. Could you leave a review on there?" I was more than happy to help, since he'd given me nothing but great service with no expectation that I would do anything in return. So yes, writing this review wasn't my idea, but I'm more than happy to help spread the word that this is an establishment worth visiting. 5/5 read more

Staff friendly! Fair price and good cleanliness on the car. Free vacuums even if you don't use the wash.

By far the worst car wash, vacuum have no power, was a waste of $20 more like a upgraded rise! Maybe tire shine mediocre, rims wasn't even touch! read more

Great car wash! It's not in my area of town but I will definitely stop by when I'm on this side of town. Attentive and friendly attendant. Car wash was effective. Vacuums are great. Clean. read more

Thank you, Amanda, for helping make my first visit a positive one. You saw my hesitancy in ordering a car wash and came running to help. The wash removed lots of embarassing road salt and the spray bottle of cleaner and towels in the vac area made quick work of the floor mat mess. I will be back! read more

I am new to the Chattanooga area and searching for a good car wash facility. ChooChoo Express is not the place. I spent over 45 minutes cleaning my car by hand with the towels provided since my vehicle was still dirty. I will continue to look for a decent business that provides value for the buck. I strongly recommend you go elsewhere if you want your vehicle cleaned! read more

Update: although the entrance and exit are still awkward I was much more pleased.I used the 2nd option and it did as well as any other car wash. Nothing amazing but got the job done. The free vacuums and cleaning supplies are a plus. read more

I have gone there several times and have been happy with the results. I like how they have towels and window cleaner out for me to use afterward to dry down my car and clean the inside. I recommend them. read more

How does this sound for a car wash experience? I Choo Choo express to wash my truck and in that process the back window on my camper shell was knocked out and shattered. I was then told by the employee working that his boss wouldn't do anything about it. Not even a refund. I will never visit this poor excuse for a business again, thank you for not a single thing. read more

Terrible! First, it's confusing how to get in there. Followed the sign to turn at the light. Still not clear. Turned around, squeezed in the narrow entrance. Meanwhile people are turning in from the street. I got the most expensive, $20. Go to vacuum and the trim above my windows had come off. Informed them, the guy was clueless. Getting out of there was even worse. Don't even think about turning left. You can't see the traffic because of the hill. Then I started smelling cigarette smoke. I don't smoke, no one smokes in my car. The only thing I can think of is that it came from the vacuum I used there. Then I noticed spots on my windows! I paid extra for a spotless wax. The was the worst $20 I ever spent. Never again. read more

New Carwash super cute design does a lovely job! Convenient to town we will be back. It's hard to find a well taken care of Carwash.

The car wash does a good job washing your car but do not buy a membership. I have paid for it 2 months now and when I try to go through it doesn't recognize my membership. I got out after sitting & blowing my horn for several minutes. I go up to the attendant to be told the machine malfunction's frequently and he would let me in. I told him this has happened multiple times could there be a problem with the sticker. He said even if there was he wouldn't replace it, just when I come through let them know and they would let me in. I than asked if I could cancel my membership he said yes just to leave my information. What really? Why would you let a customer that's paying monthly to use your carwash leave so easily. There is one directly across the street. Management needs to have someone on staff who can help with these situations. I feel like I've been reasonable since this is the 3rd time in to have my truck washed, for it to not locate my membership. It's billed my credit card $80.00 for a handful of car washes. Could management please reach out to me? Membership #1933870 you should have my contact information. Thank you. read more
