Tommy’s Express: The best car wash in 2023

We love watching guests roll up and experience the difference at Tommy’s Express Car Wash. We’re unlike any other express car wash – and that’s intentional.

As part of our dedication to an exceptional wash, our innovation team has put extra thought and attention into the entire process.

Easy-to-use car wash

When our founder Tom Essenburg envisioned the future of car washing, he knew it had to break away from the typical dark, cinder-block style washes of the past. To him, car washes were more than an extension of automotive repair shops. 

His vision was a bright, airy wash full of light. And with constant innovation, a fast, convenient, and inviting car wash was born. Here are the top 5 reasons why Tommy’s Express shines as the best car wash in 2023: 

1. Convenient app

Our Tommy’s Express app helps you do it all: store your card details, so you never have to talk to an attendant or pull out your wallet, make changes to your vehicles anytime, upgrade your wash plan for the weather, manage multiple vehicles in MyGarage, and more! Wash your way: Either with an Unlimited plan or PayPerWash. Tipping? Keep that cash for your next date night.

2. Conveyor belt entrance

Our conveyor is industry-leading and provides a stress-free car washing experience. Say goodbye to squeezing your tires between two rails. The belt conveyor makes it easy to enter and leave the wash. It also allows for vehicles and wheels of all shapes and sizes. 

3. Free mat washers and vacuums  

Fans rave about our free mat washers! These machines take interior cleaning to a whole new level. The mix of suds and water spray all the little crevices in your floor mats. Don’t worry, the station is close by our powerful suckers – these puppies are made specifically for our locations and get the job done. 

4. Consistent experience nationwide  

When you visit a Tommy’s Express location, you’ll see the same thing every time. The entrance lanes, wash building, entrance, and exit are familiar in every single city across the nation. We blend our own detergents to control the quality. We want you to have the same experience, so you know what to expect and get the same quality of wash wherever you go. Our fleet program allows businesses to manage company vehicles around the country. 

5. License plate readers  

LPR (license plate recognition) is a much more technologically advanced alternative to RFID sticker tags. This is the way of the future for car washes. Pull up to any wash nationwide, and our systems read your license plate and automatically know what type of plan you have and what wash package you prefer. Plus, any time you want to make changes, you can make a simple update in our app, and our systems coordinate the change. 

We’re on a mission to offer the best car wash in the world. That may sound like a moonshot goal – but we are building for the future, and every small step counts. Every day our teams show up ready to improve, innovate, and bring new Tommy’s Express Car Wash locations to communities. We hope you enjoy washing with us!
