Holland, MI-based national car wash franchise Tommy’s Express is pleased to announce the official groundbreaking of a new high-end express car wash facility in Northview Heights on the north side of Grand Rapids on Friday, October 19th at 1:pm.

Located at 4095 Plainfield Avenue NE, the new Tommy’s Express joins one facility in Grandville near Rivertown Crossings, another under construction off Chicago Drive in Jenison, and several more across the nation.

The new facility will feature Tommy’s Express’ signature building design paired with exclusive, state-of-the-art car wash technology. Oversized bay windows will provide a view into the system as it operates, carrying vehicles along a 130’ “Tommy Transporter” dual belt conveyor system able to accommodate a wider variety of vehicles than traditional car wash conveyors. Soft cloth brushes, tire shine service, hot wax, and a powerful underbody flush round out the service with a total wash time, from entrance to exit, averaging only 2-3 minutes. Self-serve interior vacuum stations will be available for customers to use on-site.

Using a mobile app, customers will be able to purchase and manage monthly Unlimited Club Memberships to gain automatic entrance to the wash through exclusive member lanes equipped with high-definition license plate readers. Membership costs run between $19.99 and $29.99 per month depending upon the chosen service level, and provides members on-demand access to all Tommy’s Express locations.

According to a corporate representative, “The Tommy’s Express Car Wash franchise is growing extremely quickly, with sites going up all across the United States! We’re thrilled by this progress, and we’re especially happy to see Tommy’s Express putting down such deep roots right here in our home state.”

The car wash is scheduled to open to customers in 2019.

Richmond residents and entrepreneurs Courtney and Rob Worrell are excited to announce the official groundbreaking of Tommy’s Express Car Wash, a new high-end express car wash facility that will be located across from the Chick-Fil-A on Forest Hill Avenue.

“This car wash, Tommy’s Express, isn’t just another car wash”, says Rob. “It’s a fast, modern, highly engineered system that’s going to give our customers the best express car wash experience they’ve ever had. This is going to completely change people’s idea of a car wash should be and the change it’s going to make in the Richmond market is tremendous.”

Located at 7048 Forest Hill Ave, across from the Stratford Hills Shopping Center, this will be the franchise’s first location in not just Richmond, but all of Virginia.

“We are thrilled that the state’s first Tommy’s Express facility will be in Richmond, off of Forest Hill Avenue. The location is easily accessible off of Chippenham Parkway, just south of the Huguenot Bridge. We are so excited for the Richmond community to experience the exceptional services Tommy’s Express provides.”

This announcement comes less than seven months after Courtney, Rob, and a handful of investors purchased the lot with the idea of providing the city’s most technologically advanced car wash.

According to Courtney, “When we were first considering putting a Tommy’s Express Car Wash on the lot, I couldn’t really see how this brand was any different than the other car washes we already have in Richmond. But when we visited existing Tommy Express Car Washes elsewhere in the nation and saw the concept in action we realized we have nothing even remotely like it in our city. I think people are going to be overwhelmingly surprised by our capabilities.”

The new facility will feature a visually impressive building design paired with Tommy’s Express exclusive, state-of-the-art car wash technology.

Oversize bay windows will provide a view into the system as it operates, carrying vehicles along a 130’ “Tommy Transporter” dual belt conveyor system able to accommodate a wider variety of vehicles than traditional car wash conveyors.

Soft cloth brushes, tire shine service, hot wax, and a powerful underbody flush round out the available services with total wash time, from entrance to exit, averaging only 2-3 minutes. Self-serve vacuum stations will be available for customers on site.

Using a mobile app, customers will be able to purchase and manage monthly Unlimited Club memberships to gain automatic entrance to the wash through exclusive member lanes equipped with high-definition license plate readers.

According to Worrell, “It is so rare to see an establishment as different from every other competitor in its field as Tommy’s Express is. With amenities from license plate readers to wider conveyor belts, this brand streamlines the car wash process, making our customer’s experience unlike any they’ve ever had before.”

The car wash is scheduled to open to customers in late 2018 / early 2019. Visit our website for more information.

Haag Brown Commercial, along with longtime Jonesboro community members Nick Warren, George Stem, Sean Stem, and Ryan Kibler, are excited to announce the official groundbreaking of Tommy’s Express Car Wash, a new high-end express car wash facility that will be located on the old Sears parking lot in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

According to Ryan Kibler, Tommy’s Express Car Wash franchisee, “Tommy’s Express is not just another car wash. It is modern, it’s fast, and it’s been designed from the ground up to give our customers the best express wash they’ve ever had. It goes above and beyond people’s picture of a car wash and the change it is going to make to the Jonesboro market is unequivocal.”

Located at 1821 S. Caraway Road, near Kroger Marketplace, this will be the franchise’s first location in Arkansas.

According to Nick Warren, Tommy’s Express Car Wash franchisee, “We are thrilled that the state’s first Tommy’s Express facility will be on Caraway Road in the heart of Jonesboro’s retail market. The facility is unlike anything I’ve ever seen and we are excited for the Jonesboro community to experience the exceptional services Tommy’s Express provides.”

This announcement comes less than one year after Haag Brown Commercial released the sale and re-development plans for the former Indian Mall at the intersection of Caraway Road and Highland Drive. Tommy’s Express is the first of 3 deals pending on the reconfigured out parcels to have crossed the finish line.

According to Joshua Brown, Haag Brown Commercial Principal, “When we were first approached about putting a Tommy’s Express Car Wash on the Indian Mall re-development, I couldn’t see how the brand was any different than the other car washes we already have in Jonesboro. It was not until we physically flew to Joplin, Missouri to take a look at the concept in action that I realized we have nothing even remotely like it in our city. I think people are going to be overwhelmingly surprised by Tommy’s capabilities.”

The new facility will feature a visually impressive building design paired with Tommy’s Express’s exclusive, state-of-the-art car wash technology.

Oversize bay windows will provide a view into the system as it operates, carrying vehicles along a 130’ “Tommy Transporter” dual belt conveyor system able to accommodate a wider variety of vehicles than traditional car wash conveyors.

Soft cloth brushes, tire shine service, hot wax, and a powerful underbody flush round out the available services with total wash time, from entrance to exit, averaging only 2-3 minutes. Self-serve interior vacuum stations will be available for customers on site.

Using a mobile app, Jonesboro customers will be able to purchase and manage Monthly Unlimited Club Memberships to gain automatic admittance to the wash through exclusive member lanes equipped with high-definition license plate readers. According to Ryan Kibler, Tommy’s Express Car Wash franchisee, “It is extremely rare to see an establishment that is so incredibly different than every other competitor in its field. With amenities like license plate readers and wider conveyor belts, this brand streamlines the car wash process, making our customer’s experience unlike any they’ve ever had. Being a part of this company has allowed Stem and Kibler partnerships to diversify in the community while creating jobs and being a good corporate citizen.”

The car wash is scheduled to open to customers in late 2018/early 2019. Visit Tommys-Express.com for more information.
