Don't bring your car here... closest emissions test location with decent reviews, decided to give…read morethem a try. Old Indian dude doesn't know wtf he's doing. Within 30 seconds of being at this location, as soon as i pull up, he opens my door and hits it on a wall that's allegedly 'protected'. Immediately after instead of asking me how to open the diagnostics menu on my car (clearly isn't familiar with BMW) he proceeds to just start pressing random buttons, and changing my settings!! I asked what he was doing, and he immediately gets aggressive asking "do i trust him or not" ... after hitting my door and making it obvious he has no idea about beamers or cars at all for that matter smh. Find another place to bring your car for your own sake!

Yelp led me to this Dekra location for my latest emissions inspection. The reviews are polarized --…read morea bunch of five-star reviews and a few one and two-star reviews. My three-star rating is because I waited almost 1.5 hours to get my emissions checked here. That's by far the longest I've waited at any emissions place over the last ~25 years. I came here because the place I'd been going to in recent years was temporarily closed. I pulled up to the lot at 2:18pm on an ordinary Thursday. The time printed on my report was 3:39pm. When I pulled up, there were nine cars ahead of me. The cars were packed in and the tail end of my car (just a little bit) was sticking out onto Collier Rd. It wasn't clear where else go to because the Goodwill next door doesn't want Dekra customers in their lot. The guy in the SUV ahead of me got tired of waiting and left. A woman in an SUV behind me looked agitated and annoyed with the wait. If you come here, be prepared to wait. Hopefully, you'll get lucky like some of the other Yelpers here. This is a one-man shop. I was seen by the manager "Mr. Ben" Benjamin Floyd, who's mentioned in many of the reviews. I believe it's just him and one other inspector who works at this location. Mr. Ben is a personality. He's a talker and we hit it off immediately, joking around and shooting the breeze. I could tell he did the same with others ahead of me, because some of their faces lit up, as well as with others who left reviews (hence all the five-star ratings). He runs a tight ship and isn't afraid to put people in their place if they give him a hard time. He is trying to get cars through as fast as he can, but this location is very busy. This is a tiny place. I saw Mr. Ben had a deal where he'll do your emissions test ($25) and install two Rain-X wiper blades for $65. On-site is a porta-john and a quick hand carwash. I saw two small ladies working the carwash on the other side of the emissions testing structure.

The "Deutscher Kraftfahrzeug" is where "DEKRA" comes from. Read their Wiki for some interesting history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dekra I had time since I was waiting in line. At the time of writing this review, Dekra has 20 inspection stations in Georgia, all in metro Atlanta: https://www.dekra.us/en/georgia/georgia-inspection-stations/ Mr. Ben told me wait times are much better if you come first thing in the morning: 8am, Monday-Friday and 9am, Saturday-Sunday. He told me this Dekra location was experiencing an unusually higher demand than normal at the time.

For emissions it's great. Only $20! Nice service, fast, no concerns whatsoever. Easy in and out.read more

What is hidden in this gem is Service, with a capital S, who took the best care of my Porsche Boxter today. I was in the area and searched for hand car wash near me. Mr. Freddie, the GM, who told me he is known as Service at the shop, said he would take care of me, and he did. I got a much-needed hand car wash for $20, and Service pointed out that I needed a wax, which was true. He did a hand wax for an additional $20. Great prices, great service, and it took only a short time. Mr. Freddie told me that he would make my car look brand new, and he did a fabulous job. I am not often in this area, but I highly recommend Pat's Pro Car Wash to everyone!
