STAR Certified smog spot here! Used them last year and will be returning to them this year for another vehicles of ours. Customer service was professional and kind. Process was quick and painless. Cost was typical. My vehicle's info was digitally sent to DMV and my new stickers arrived. Very happy to have a go-to spot! read more

Their websites states the hours are from 08:30-5:00. Arrives at 09:30, and the shop was closed. Talked to people at the next door business and they told me the operator usually arrives around 09:30. I waited a short time and no one showed up, so I left. If the owner does not want to show up to 09:30 or 10:00, then change your business hours read more

From the moment I pulled up it worked out well. Right next to my work. I pulled up to the stall got out and checked for debris all good. It took $5 which was such a good deal. It had been 2 months I just moved to an apartment and was hesitant to find a new self car wash. I found mine. I was struggling to get her washed. Kevin the owner noticed came up started small talking friendly and nice conversation. When it was time to dry he started helping me so kind I was super appreciative TY Kevin I'll be back within a month or sooner read more

There was not a long waiting period. Owner was professional and efficient. He gave excellent service and my smog pass. His prices for smog and certification was reasonable. There was a customer before me and her car didn't pass but the owner told the customer what she needed to do and when she returns the owner would not charge her for another smog just the certificate. That's great customer service and quality. Will be returning in the future -for sure!!! read more

This is by far the best smog shop in town!!! Fast service!! Great price!! Kevin is also hilarious which is nice when you are saving the environment. read more

My daughter just used her credit card for a self wash on her car at your place . Your machine took her money and bay 3 didn't even start so you took her money and she was unable to wash her car. You should make sure your machines are working before taking peoples money. read more

Nice having a car wash next door. Guy was nice and sells Amsoil products. Bonus! Think I was only there 20 minutes for the smog.

The guy did the smog quickly. Make sure to have your paperwork ready when you walk in. If you're doing a yelp check-in tell the guy as soon as you first talk to him; don't wait until check out. read more

Citrus Heights Smog - Front entrance - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

Owner is rude. I came here about 2 weeks ago and my car failed smog so he told me I can come for retest. When I got here he needed the receipt to do the retest. I can show him proof that it's paid through my bank but he stdidn't care. Went home and brought the receipt. Overall just a rude person. I didn't even mind going home to get the receipt. Won't be back here. read more

Citrus Heights Smog - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

TEN MINUTES!!! Why you ask? Because that is all it took for me by the time I arrived with my vehicle to the time I drove off with my vehicle. And this is none other at "Citrus Heights Smog". As many of you know, getting that dreadful notice in the mail from the DMV means paying outrageous registration fees + requiring to get your car smogged which equals dishing out a ton of money. However, what normally would cost me $60 (which is around the standard price of a smog check) only cost me $38. The reason why is that if you check-in on the Yelp app, you will get an instant $22 off your smog check! Now that is one hell of a deal! One interesting thing about Citrus Heights Smog is that it is owned and operated by one person who also owns the self-serve car wash that is directly next door. So if you have the time, you could get your vehicle smogged while paying just a few bucks to get it washed as well. This place is very small on the inside with a waiting area that only has enough room for just a few guests. They do carry several items for purchase including motor oil, fuel treatment, and transmission fluid. The hours are very standard as they are open Monday through Friday from 8:30am-5:30pm and Saturday from 8:30am-3pm while being closed for business Sunday. Overall, "Citrus Heights Smog" was arguably the quickest and most efficient service I've ever experienced at any automotive-related business. I arrived on a Friday afternoon at 4:25pm and left at 4:35pm! My rating, a unanimous five stars! read more

15 minutes- all it takes. Maybe we were the first to get our car smog this morning. Juan's infiniti needed a smog. We checked in via my yelp and got the $22 discount. From 60 down to 38- nice. Very friendly and courteous gentleman mending the front and did the smog test. Fast and courteous service. Thank you. He also gave Juan the paper for recall on his abs bags. That was nice. It's a PASS fpr the smog test. Go here if you need to smog your car. read more

Went to CH Smog & was greeted by the Owner, who was very friendly & quick with his service. My car passed smog & I was in & out of there in 15-minutes. I appreciated the discount as well for checking in on Yelp while I was there. The premise is kept well & is clean. I would definitely recommend CH Smog for their service. Thank you again. read more

Quick and easy process, bring your vehicle registration, give keys, fill out the form wait for the smog test to complete, about 10-15min max, pay and done. I'll keep bringing my car every other year until they give me an electric car read more

I have come here for every one of my cars and lately it has been a few and he has been great, quick and informative when there have been any issues. I wouldn't go anywhere else on my area. read more

Efficient and fast, Kevin is great! Found out quickly what was wrong and so I had the problem fixed and I passed smog test no problem. Nice and cool in the waiting area too. Highly recommended read more

I am not sure but I think this place changed ownership. I have gone there for a few years in the past but when I went in November this year, they were not open. While I was sitting there, thinking maybe they closed for lunch, a guy drove up and said they were closed because the Bureau of Automotive Repair required "something" when they changed owners. But he said they would re-open soon. So no clue but went elsewhere this year. In the past, this place was great so I hope things are alright now. read more

Kevin is the best!! I had a Jeep that was having an issue passing smog so I ended up with 3 smog test and every time I went in, I had a good experience. Very reasonable prices and very knowledgeable in his profession and can even drive a manual. 10/10 I will be recommending him to everyone. read more

I came here at 1030 am for Smog check. They took my paperwork and keys and the smog check was done before I even had a chance to open a magazine. Less than 15 minutes. Of course I was lucky that there were no other customer ahead of me. Will use Citrus hts Smog again read more

Always is friendly and willing to give advice. Highly recommend this shop. The owner Kevin is awsome.

Didn't really like our first and last visit... apparently we "interrupted" his lunch time. While he just stared at the TV and ignored us as we just stood there waiting for acknowledgement. His attitude wasn't very friendly either, kinda made us feel like we were dumb the way he talked to us. But whatever you can't expect everyone to treat you right now can we? We found a nice little mom n pop shop that we give out business too now :) read more

Citrus Heights Smog - Puppyyy!!! - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

Got my car smogged today. Super fast service! Not very busy at 2:55 pm. Employee (owner?) seemed pleasant to me. I don't know what the couple of negative reviews are about... probably just obnoxious people trying to claim imaginary entitlements or not following instructions. Highly recommend this place for smog. Did not use car wash. read more

If you want to be treated with attitude go here .Asked 2 questions . Both answers .. ATTITUDE .. I just walk out .. I guess I interrupted his lunch.. Took my business elsewhere read more

Owner is very down to business. He knows what he is doing and does it efficiently. Knowledgeable but not too much chit-chat. I like that. In and out in no time. read more

Great Service! Fast and affordable. Came in on a rainy day and needed to be out for another appointment. No delay what so ever was out in 15 minutes read more

Best place to go i you want a smog done same day. Quick in and out process. Fair price. For that reason I drive a little further to come here. read more

I have been to several smog check stations over the years, and Citrus Heights smog check station is the one that I will go back to. No nonsense, quick and reliable. read more

Needed a quick smog and this was the right place to go. The man in the office was very nice, quick and helpful. I will definitely be a returning customer! read more

Very quick service. The man running the service desk seemed like a no nonsense type which is great for getting things done. Comes off as a little abrasive though read more

Fast. No bs. Great service. I wouldn't go anywhere else. There are also twinkle light jars sold here that look great with our indoor plants! I don't know if it's coincidence but we've had really great luck since we bought ours! I'll be coming here for more than just smog testing. Thanks! read more

Citrus Heights Smog - Smog, car wash, recycle center, store all in same lot! #onestopshop - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Citrus Heights, California

I love this place. My car didn't pass at first but he told exactly what I needed to fix and gave me a 30 day period to retest for free. Came back in 2 weeks, passed and was out in 10 minutes if not less. The guy running this place is no-nonsense straight to the point and honestly that's my favorite part. I'm not there to have a conversation or have someone suck up to me, he greeted me, went straight to work, sent me off in 10 minutes with all I needed. This is my go-to now. read more

No appointments necessary, even on a Saturday! Great price too! We take all of our cars here.

Quick and fast!! Not very friendly! Tried too use the Yelp check in apparently your suppose too check in before your even there, or right when you walk in, that would have been nice to know. If you don't want people to use the coupon on yelp then take it done all together. Could definitely work on customer service skills. I like to support businesses like this since I actually own my own but, probably won't be coming back here. Felt like I was bothering him. I wanted to get out of there quick, almost forgot my receipt/records. Not worth $60 in my mind. read more

In response to the business owner: I "normally" don't respond to comments from business owners but this is a completely inaccurate response on the owners part. My car was in great shape and it only had 60k on a 1999 Mitsubishi so thank you for giving out inaccurate information. I did take my car in for a second time to your location and one of your techs failed it again. Again, you are lying about information which further proves that your company is a scam. I learned at a young age how to do proper maintenance on cars. I've always changed my oil every 7,500 miles and I know how to fix other minor things on my car. I'd have to say that I am not qualified to be a "tech" (as you so nicely put it) but I do know when a company is trying to rip people off. How can you explain that your company failed to pass my car when another smog company that I took it to passed it? Where's the logic in that? Since you seem to be a bit unstable, I can explain it to you in small words. Other company=legitimate Your company=scam, fake, illegal read more

Very quick and reliable service. He has been my go to smog place since it is rarely occupied as their staff expedites all of their customers effortlessly and efficiently. read more

The place is so convenient , i was able to get in and get out with no issues, price is great, and the gentleman that is there I am assuming he is an owner is a great business man if you need a place to get your car smog at this is the Place!!' read more

Super quick service with no wait time at all. Kevin was extremely friendly and professional, and the best of all, if you check in thru Yelp, you get a sweet discount! Total cost with certificate was only $38! Thanks CH Smog! read more

I went for a smog check in June. I called before I went in and Kevin sounded friendly and helpful. Once I got there, he was not the most professional. He will answer in the most condescending and rude way when you ask him questions. People like that should not be in business. I knew I should have left once he opened his mouth, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt that maybe he was having some sort of day... Smog checks are quick, but once he did it, he did not even tell me if I passed or not. Hello? I'm paying you a service. Give me my results. The only upside to this place is the price. It is lower compared to other surrounding places I called. But when it comes to service and professionalism, Kevin really needs to check himself. I'll take my business elsewhere where I can support struggling small businesses who appreciate their customers. read more

My first time here, in and out less than 15 minutes, they honor coupon from yelp, we will be back.
