Checked the Yelp reviews looking for a Sunday or late Saturday smog check. Called to confirm shop was open on Saturday. Drove in and was met by Paul. Very friendly, quick service and had me on my way in no time. I highly recommend PT Smog for the quick service, friendly and professionalism of Paul. read more

Call ahead & schedule an appt to smog test my OBD1 vehicle. Paul does not disappoint!

THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! Wow! I was helped immediately and they were so kind. If you need a smog check, go here!

Just got my smog checked here and Paul helped me out and i can't recommend them enough! took me in last minute, got my car checked in about 30 minutes. Super friendly, great customer service and affordable. read more

I was looking for a smog stop that was open after I finished work. This place was available and even stayed late for me to get my car addressed. It's a small business and they give cash discounts. It is a little bit challenging to find as it's in a small lot shared with car repair shop but since I called ahead the owner was waiting for me in the lot. Thank you for coming through in a pinch! read more

If you're still driving a non EV vehicle and polluting the earth like I am you need to get your car smogged. And since I live in California the law says I gotta smog my car like every other year which is nuts but hey I'm all about compliance. I decided to handle my smog requirement while doing a few errands in Long Beach. Found PT smog on Yelp and I'm glad I did. Awesome smog experience. Paul was extremely responsive and took care of me right away. No fuss, very straightforward and transparent. Highly recommended. read more

I messaged ahead through the Yelp app and was able to get a special cash price. Paul was responsive, quick (it took literally only 15 min), and the service was great. I'll definitely be back in future because of the value and convenience! read more

I was greeted by a semi-friendly technician with the smirk of a medieval alchemist. He sighed a few times until my still relatively new vehicle passed the smog check. The mission was accomplished, but it took 5 times longer than any of the smog inspections I have ever attended, even though I was the only customer. Perhaps next time I'll try a different establishment. read more

Paul and his crew were outstanding. Quick, professional and responsive. I had to get my massive RV smogged and he helped me park and had me done in less then 30 min. Great team and highly recommended, reasonable price too! read more

Paul is the best! BEST PLACE TO SMOG YOUR CAR! Quick, cheap & reliable! Don't go anywhere else but here,TRUST

Called the business to get a quote and see if I needed an appointment, the gentleman said $50 cash for a smog and I could come right away. There was no wait and Paul is so friendly and got the check done quickly. Would definitely recommend this place and I'll come back again! Paul made the chore actually enjoyable. read more

Got a quick quote from Paul for a Smog check on the messaging app on yelp. I was able to come in WITHOUT and appointment. He was true to his word on his quote. I used the check in special on yelp. Now I'm on my Merry (hint hint for the Season) way! It was kind of hard to find the place, but I found it! It's tucked in a little corner on the corner of Stanley and Anaheim, ACROSS from the 76 gas station. Now don't be going into the bar, I know that's where you really want to go! But this spot is on the other side of Anaheim directly in front of the gas station. Ummm the big Smog flag should be a give away. Listening to maps got me almost going into the paint shop down the street since i was coming down Anaheim towards Cherry... There wasn't really much of a wait though he said there might be. He was able to get me in and out in less than 15 mins. I don't even think i was there for 5 but I'll say 15 for Asian time Thanks Paul! You were easy to talk though it did help that you look like you could be one of my cousins! No but really, he was nice and greeted me with a smile and helped me out right away. Sorry this was NOT a quick post. But check this place out. I've called some other star certified smog stations and their quotes were higher. read more

PT Smog - This place is in the corner spot. Across from 76 gas station - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Long Beach, California

Paul was super friendly and trustworthy. He got the job done in less than 20 mins on Saturday morning! Thank you Paul you're a Rockstar!

I needed smog checks for both of my cars, and Tom's Auto recommended this local spot to me. Prices were very reasonable (paid in cash). I took my cars on separate days, one was a quick in-and-out and the other time was busy, but great experiences nonetheless. Paul is professional and welcoming. This smog place is small so it might be easy to miss as you drive by. The only con is that it neighbors other auto places so the driveway can be quite narrow, but otherwise PT Smog is worth it! read more

Came at the last minute as I got off of work to get a smog check before they close they welcome you with open arms and good fun friendly family conversation - read more

Paul was able to get me in asap! He was very quick to respond to any questions I had and was able to get me in and out in 15 min. Location can be a bit tricky but once you enter, he is all the way in the back! Great customer service too! Thank you Paul! read more

Paul was nice and friendly. Don't be discouraged if he says he's working on a customer right at the moment, he's pretty fast. As soon as I arrived he was pretty much done with the previous service. Highly recommend, he'll get you in and out quickly. read more

Showed up on a Sunday around 3:30 as Paul was about to head home. I felt bad and offered to come back but he took me in anyway. Messages through Yelp had quick and informative responses. Very friendly, personable, and professional. Thanks again! read more

I was in need of a smog on my 2006 Prius and I am so thankful that I have found PT smog. The gentleman that helped me actually stayed just to get my smog done for me when they usually close at 5:30. I highly recommend if you want honest fast and affordable services to definitely go to PT smog. read more

Great customer service from paul. Called in over the phone and he was polite and helpful. Came in and he got my smog done in about 15 mins. Also has buddies for anything you need parts, repairs ect. They don't over sell u on anything u don't need and are very helpful. My bumper was coming off and Paul screwed it back in for no charge with his bolts. 10/10 recommend if you don't know where to get your smog at. Very friendly and helpful even taught me some stuff i didn't know about my car. read more

I'm very happy with the service over here, everything was very simple and quick. Paul was very nice & patient so it felt as if I was at home while he was working on the car. I will definitely be returning and recommending my friends & family to come here! :) read more

PT Smog - 2009 Subaru STI Hatch - Smog Check Stations Near Me - Long Beach, California

O.k. it must have been me. Every time I went in, he told me his machine was not working. I found that odd because this shop kind of difficult to find and then driving into the actual spot more difficult. I say that to say, why would he get out of his chair, guide me in, grab his clip board and proceed to ask me questions about my vehicle. It wasn't until he found out the car I was trying to get a smog check on was a 1996 Ford. Yes I am aware that newer cars don't require as much work when they get a smog check. I don't know now I'm speculating. Hey Mr Business Owner, I have an idea for you. If you're been lazy and don't want the hassle of actually having to work, or it there is a legitimate reason in the future just be honest and stop wasting our time by having us come back every couple of days. But I shouldn't be complaining too much because you actually did me a favor by forcing me to find another facility (CA Express Smog on Redondo & Anaheim) which was a great experience. Maybe Paul (the owner) has it together now since this was over a year ago. note: This review was from over a year ago and have no idea why yelp is telling me to finish this review, especially when I thought it had been completed at that time. read more

Google a last minute smog check based on the google ratings of 5 stars. I drove right up. Had both cars smog fed in just moments. Very friendly and helpful. Awesome customer service. There are 3 other garages connected to each other and PT smog is the last one, just drive up through the narrow drive way all the way to the back wall and it will be right there. Even when it got busy the owner got everyone in and out without a hassle. read more

See all

Needed to complete a smog check for registration renewal and wanted to go in on a Sunday. I passed by at around 3 and the shop was closed even though hours say later closing time- didn't expect a shop open on Sunday anyway so i wasn't upset. Called in on Tuesday to verify hours so i could make it in after work (5pm, Yelp closing says 6pm) and the owner answered, and notified he usually closes a bit earlier but he'd wait for me to get there. Once I got there the owner was very nice and service was quick. I mentioned passing by and seeing shop closed earlier than hours posted online and he said on slow days he does close earlier, so i would advise to call ahead just to avoid any issues. Smog for my 2012 Mazda3 was $40 and i was out within 15 minutes. Would definitely go back! read more

Reliable and informative. I am on the road thanks the PT Smog. Make sure to have your car ready and be patient.

Just arrived No wait, and greeted with a smile. I love this place so professional and eas. I had the 40.00 yelp coupon which made it affordable as well. Thank you PY Smog read more

I needed a smog check and this was close to home and a good deal. Friendly service. Thank you!

5 stars almost every review for a reason! Fast, friendly and frugal! Ask for the Yelp mobile discount!

This review is long over due but I would definitely recommend this place! I needed to do a smog check on my car so I called for availability and they notified me they were still open and to come on by. I parked on the side instead of driving all the way in (I wasn't sure if I needed to check in person before driving my car up) and another customer drove in instead. The owner of the shop, Paul, noticed I got their first and politely asked the gentlemen in the car to back up so he can help me first. Which was so kind and I hella appreciated it. Overall my experience went really well and the owner is a really chill person, easy to talk to and knowledgeable. Also a heads up, the shop is on a main street and the entrance could be tricky to see so just watch out for their signs and those are easy to spot. read more

The location is kind of annoying with the neighbor next door blocking the entry way (um, rude.) but regardless, I was in & out & on my way! Paul's pretty cool also, I could tell he was a good person right off the bat, great shop talk, and that's the type of people you should give your business too. I think I just found my go too. read more

Best smog experience ever. In and out quick and easy! I've definitely found my new smog spot. Highly recommended

Pretty tight place, but Paul gets you in and out of the shop. I came in for a smog and the service was quick and professional.

Recommend this Smog Location, had an OBD 2 system Vehicle and passed with no issues, quick in and out. Opened on Sunday.... so that's a Plus . Note: Entrance is on Stanley and Anahiem read more

15 minute smog and $40 cash yelp special. What more can you ask for. Save time and get in and out. I like a place that knows what they're doing. It's also star certified if you need that for registration. read more

Excellent Costumer service. If you're in the Long Beach area come see Paul. Professional work, low wait time at a great price.

Paul was so nice and personable. I honestly don't have any expectations when it comes to getting a smog check, but I was pleasantly surprised that the experience was so easy. I will be bringing all of our cars here whenever we need our smog checks. Great guy, professional service. Thanks Paul! read more
