You may notice that your car isn’t completely dry after a trip through the tunnel at Tommy’s Express, and thanks to our Spot Free Rinse, that’s perfectly fine! 

Thanks to reverse osmosis (RO) technology (we’ll explain; stick with us!), you don’t have to spend time drying those remaining droplets after you wash at Tommy’s Express or worry about water spots. Learn what makes us so confident in our H20.

How water spots form on a car

When water dries on a car, any small piece of material that is not water also dries onto the surface. That means if water has any kind of impurity, like dirt, minerals, or contaminants, it is left behind as the water evaporates. 

The good news is that when your car is not dry after a wash, it will dry with just a few minutes of driving down the road. But how it looks when the water is gone is the difference maker. 

It is frustrating if you spend money on a cheap car wash that appears to get you clean, but just minutes later, your car looks worse than before. 

You might be tempted to towel dry those few wet spots in the vacuum bay at Tommy’s Express, but have faith in the filters! Besides making your car look amazing, our water has a neat trick up its molecular sleeve.

What is Spot Free Rinse

We understand how frustrating water spots on your car can be. That’s why we include a spot-free rinse in our washes. 

Spot Free Rinse is the final step of the wash you pass through before the blower room. We give your vehicle a final rinse using reverse osmosis-treated water. It makes sure your ride doesn’t leave the wash with soapy or dirty water. 

The water used for Spot Free Rinse is treated using reverse osmosis. With a high-quality filtration process, the Tommy RO system removes total dissolved solids, or TDS, from the water. This includes salts, microplastics, minerals, and more. After treatment, the water is ultra-pure and ready for use on your vehicle. 

Unfiltered water, often referred to as hard water, causes spots when left to dry on a vehicle. Because our filtered RO water is so clean and free of impurities, after a few minutes of air drying, there are no annoying white or ghosty spots left behind.

How to get Spot Free Rinse at Tommy’s Express

Great news! Tommy’s Express includes a Spot Free Rinse in every wash package. Whether you are a member or trying us for the first time, you can expect the benefit of our ultra-clean water at the end of the tunnel. No matter what wash package you choose, your vehicle deserves to leave our tunnel spotless.

2023 is marked as a year of innovation and growth for Tommy’s Express Car Wash and Tommy Car Wash Systems. There is much to celebrate between the move into our new Tommy’s Headquarters (HQ), site expansion, and an additional interior cleaning location.

Tommy’s HQ move-in

Tommy’s Express and Tommy Car Wash Systems consolidated operations at our brand-new headquarters.

Construction began in 2021, and after about two years, we celebrated the grand opening in August.

Having our brands under one roof has drawn out a new spirit of efficiency, community, and togetherness in our team.  

The new headquarters is a testament to the company’s commitment to continually reinvest in the future of Tommy’s, doubling down on the amazing story ahead. The world-class support center benefits team members with a high-quality workspace. Franchise Partners and Tommy Car Wash Systems customers also enjoy the advantage of a powerful production and distribution hub to better serve their wash sites and drive innovation. 

Exciting growth for Tommy Car Wash Systems

Working in our new 210,000 sq. ft. warehouse, Tommy Car Wash Systems supports sites, develops wash products, and processes orders faster and better than ever.  

Being spread across five buildings as an innovation and manufacturing company presented a logistical challenge. Now, with a spacious, custom-built facility to house all operations, Tommy Car Wash Systems is positioned for years of growth in efficiency and in-house production capability.  

Innovations whose development and deployment were aided by the new facility include the Tommy RO System, the Tommy Water Softener System, and the Tommy Molded Mat Washer, which is available for pre-order.  

These products add value to franchise partners and customers by reducing costs and decreasing repair time and difficulty. 

Tommy’s Express reaches new milestones 

Tommy’s Express raced past 150 operating locations mid-year, opening 47 U.S.-based washes and ending the year with 183 locations nationwide. Tommy’s Express dug in with determination and continued with its commitment to expand into new and existing communities, adding value to a TommyClub® membership with each site opened, including the September groundbreaking of a site in Allonne, France. 

We are also excited to welcome many new franchise partner groups to Tommy’s in 2023.

New franchise partners bring a wealth of business expertise and add significant value to the brand. Their insight, experience, and connections make our franchise partner community stronger, smarter, and better equipped. 

Along with the growth in community and locations nationwide, we added value to the Tommy’s Express membership experience by bolstering our proprietary technology suite.

This expansion led to the launch of our Referral Rewards program in May. TommyClub® members can now share their unique referral link with loved ones and are rewarded with unlimited $5 credits for each new sign-up of first-time members. 

The program adds value to TommyClub by making sharing our excellent car wash membership experience sweeter than ever. Tommy’s Express saw a strong adoption of the program and is excited to see it grow as more members take advantage of the opportunity to share the shine.

We also focused our attention on improving the guest experience, digitally and in-person. This allows Tommy’s Express to remain relevant, timely, and supportive of guests nationwide. These efforts ensured the continued provision of expert car wash technology while, most importantly, prioritizing our daily visitors.

Through our industry-leading innovation in new club member sign-up processes, ongoing club member engagement, and referral program, TommyClub at Tommy’s Express continues to define the standard of a modern car wash experience.

Expansion into the interior cleaning market with Flex Models 

Tommy’s entered the interior cleaning market this year, opening two Flex Model locations. 

We converted an existing Totally Tommy location into a Tommy’s Express franchised location, equipped with one exterior and one interior tunnel in Port Saint Lucie, Florida. After some renovation, the site began washing cars in June, with the interior tunnel serving guests in October. 

The second Flex Model opened under Quality Car Wash in early November in Holland, Michigan. This wash model has one wash tunnel and two express interior cleaning tunnels.

The Flex Model diversifies the portfolio of wash models available to TCWS customers, and we look forward to offering our interior cleaning to communities across the country in the years ahead.

When winter arrives, car care can turn into a challenge, especially between icy roads and salt-covered streets—not to mention the slush and slop boots that can drag inside.  

So instead of letting Old Man Winter have his way with your vehicle, take control with these essential ways to keep your car running smoothly and looking its best, inside and out, all winter long.

1. Winter Tires: Get a Grip

Winter tires are uniquely designed for better traction and handling in slick conditions. It’s all because they have a different tread pattern and rubber compound, allowing them to stay pliable in low temperatures. Help prevent sliding and spinning out by swapping your summer tires for the winter kind, ideally before the snow really starts falling.

2. Car Washes with Underbody Flush: Keep on Shining

Winter roads are coated nonstop with salt and sand to combat icy conditions, which can be a nightmare for your car’s exterior. This includes the parts you can see and the parts you can’t, like the underbody.

That’s why car washes with underbody flushes – available in our Super, Ultimate, and Works packages – are crucial during winter. Roll into Tommy’s Express on a regular basis to remove salt and grime from your undercarriage, which will help prevent rust and corrosion.

3. Protecting Your Cabin: Interior TLC

Inside your car, winter can be equally challenging. Slush can make their way into your vehicle, potentially damaging the interior. Protect your cabin by investing in all-weather floor mats to trap moisture and prevent stains. And go the extra mile by regularly vacuuming and using our convenient detail kits to keep the interior looking fresh.

4. Wax: It Does the Body Good

To protect your car’s paint from winter’s harsh elements, a wax or sealant creates a protective barrier that fends off water, snow, and salt. We suggest the Works, which comes with Ceramic Body Wax®, which helps keep your car easier to clean and adds a protective layer of wax to your paint.

Even better, the more often you wash with the Works, the better that protective layer gets. Bonus: You also get a wheel cleaning and tire gloss, adding even more shine.  

Don’t let the cold months take a toll on your ride. Take proactive steps, keep it in top shape, and make Tommy’s Express a part of your winter car care routine.

The passionate and dedicated people working for Tommy’s Express are the heartbeat of our world-class car wash. Every day all across the country, hundreds of Tommy’s Express team members aim to provide an industry-leading wash and experience our guests know and love.  

We wish we could share every team member’s story, but since we have to keep this brief, we’re highlighting three whose journeys have impacted the history of Tommy’s Express. 

Clayton from Jonesboro, Arkansas

In 2019, Clayton was working at his local Kroger when the new Tommy’s Express in Jonesboro began construction. Fascinated by the building design, he became one of the location’s first hires. Starting as a team member, he eventually earned the position of team lead.  

Amidst the fast growth, Clayton met his now fiancé at the wash. While she has since moved to a different profession, he is deeply grateful that their roles at the local car wash brought them together.  

Over time, he was given the franchise group’s second Jonesboro site to manage.  

“The determination of the team is great to see,” said Clayton in an interview. “We hit a plateau and thought we would never be able to reach above it, but to see the team work so hard and get above their mark was great.”  

When asked what keeps him working for Tommy’s Express, Clayton is quick to talk about his team.  

“We are not just a 9-5, [we are a] tight-knit group regardless of work.”  

Holding excellence in work to a high standard, Clayton enjoys being able to teach his team and lead by example. Creating a strong bond within his team, they participate in monthly team-building activities under his leadership and even spend time together outside of work.  

“I look forward to coming to work every day…I work for them.” 

Between the continued growth, the work that differs daily, and the joy he finds in leading his sites, Clayton is excited about his future with Tommy’s Express.  

Magoly from El Paso, Texas

Magoly’s journey with Tommy’s Express begins in El Paso, Texas, where she became one of the first to work at this “new, fancy-looking car wash in town” that she and her coworker couldn’t help but notice. 

Magoly enjoys working at the wash for various reasons, but the most prominent is the Guests.  

“I really enjoy the people and the Guests. I did fast food for four years before, but here is different.”  

Relationship-building with the regulars at the wash is a special part of Magoly’s time at Tommy’s Express. She has come to love how hands-on and ever-changing a typical day on the job can be.  

Her role itself has significantly changed since she started, as well. After eight months as a team member, she was asked to be an assistant site leader and has recently assumed the role of site leader at the second El Paso location.  

While working towards becoming an RN after nursing school, Magoly still sees the wash as her focus. Her commitment to excellence helped earn her one of the Tommy’s Express TEACHES scholarships.  

Like Clayton, Magoly loves training her team hands-on and does all she can to ensure the wash site is as good of a work environment as it can be.  

“If you are going to spend a lot of time somewhere,” she described, “It should be a happy environment. It really helps build teamwork, which is essential to the wash running well.”  

Magoly compares Tommy’s Express to the Chick-fil-A of car washing. “Lots of cleaning and talking with guests,” which she continues to enjoy and shine in.  

As she continues her college career, Magoly is excited to remain with the company as her franchise group grows in El Paso, celebrating their recently opened third site on Montana Ave.  

David from Enid, Oklahoma

After retiring from the military, David knew he had a lot of education and experience to carry him into the civilian workforce but didn’t quite know where he was going.  

David and his wife planned financially to spend some time finding his forever career. But their search was cut short in the best way possible.

The first position he applied for was the open site leader position at Tommy’s Express Car Wash in Enid, Oklahoma. After a successful round of interviews, he accepted the position. Fast forward three years, and he is loving every minute.

“I had immediately fallen in love with the industry. I had and still do have an amazing relationship with the local team members, brand partners, company leadership, and Tommy’s Express Headquarters personnel,” David writes.  

David’s favorite part of his job is networking, fostering new friendships, and creating what he used to call his “military family,” now dubbed his “work family.”  

David attributes much of his forward momentum with the company to the kindness of the incredible support system within the franchise group’s leadership, the Davis family. David is deeply grateful to the group for making his journey possible. 

“Having the right support system coupled with unwavering willpower keeps me focused through everything from the dreaded “wash-down” situation to the highest recognition and honors.”  

David believes that work can be a place of satisfaction and positivity. 

“Keeping the end goal in sight will move you and your team in unison to success,” David writes.  

Work at Tommy’s Express  

Tommy’s Express is grateful for Clayton, Magoly, and David’s examples of excellence and ownership.  

From Arkansas to El Paso, there are amazing stories like these at Tommy’s Express all across the country. Are you interested in being part of the exciting growth story of a site near you?

Tommy’s Express’s headquarters is at 648 S. Point Ridge Dr., Holland, Michigan. After years of expansion in West Michigan, Tommy Car Wash Systems and Tommy’s Express’s operations were spread across several buildings in Holland. 

The new building consolidates the operations of Tommy’s Express and Tommy Car Wash Systems, referred to together as Tommy’s, into one facility. This increases efficiency and quality of support internationally. 

The company celebrated the building’s Grand Opening ceremony on August 25th, 2023, after 710 days between groundbreaking and move-in. 

Designed for support 

“The design of the building is intended to show our franchise partners and employees (they’re) the center of our business,” said Alex Lemmen, CEO of Tommy’s Express and Tommy Car Wash Systems, in an interview with Holland Sentinel.  

As the car wash franchise continues to expand, space for new team members is essential.  

Leadership found it equally critical to provide a space that would ensure the highest level of innovation and collaboration. Built from the ground up by EV construction, the facility is top-notch and intentional, down to the inch.  

Flooded with plenty of natural light and noise-dampening features, the office space provides an inviting and collaborative space to drive site development, opening, and support. 

Tommy’s Express understood when planning the headquarters that a world-class car wash can only be achieved with top-tier support. This starts with a modern supply chain center, primed for innovation and support.

With 23 loading docks and 210,000 sq. ft. of space, Tommy Car Wash Systems’ new warehouse takes up nearly 85% of the new headquarters.  

The warehouse contains a full fabrication lab, a blending department for Tommy’s detergents, and office space.  

Between the warehouse and the offices, the new location is expected to add hundreds of new jobs to Holland in the years to come. 

A headquarters positioned for growth 

The new Tommy’s Express headquarters location is selected with purpose. 

Tommy’s Express has over 160 franchise locations to support across the United States. The new headquarters is placed perfectly alongside the interstate to deliver washes and equipment nationwide more efficiently. 

The land was chosen with the future in mind. With plenty of space for expansion, Tommy’s is poised well for the future. 

With a variety and abundance of seating, the multi-purpose space serves team members well. The spacious cafeteria is a landing zone for meetings, team lunches, and all-company gatherings. 

The road ahead 

The new building is an exciting step for Tommy’s Express and Tommy Car Wash Systems. 

Finally, together under one building, the team is more equipped to Enrich Lives, Add Value, and Serve Communities.

The post Where is Tommy’s Express Headquarters? appeared first on Tommy's Express Car Wash.

We are often asked what the differ ence is between our car wash packages. Every wash at Tommy’s Express is fast, efficient, and high-quality. It’s easy to see a difference in price or color on the menu board, but you might not know what we mean by “Tommy Guard” or “Underbody Flush.” 

No matter your budget, you can enjoy a great wash from any of our wash tiers. Tommy’s Express is committed to providing the best wash for any budget. We take your investment in your vehicle seriously. Let’s get to the details and benefits of each of our four signature car wash packages.  

#1 WORKS 

The WORKS is our best wash and best value at Tommy’s Express.

We make the WORKS shine with all of the best products. This includes Tommy Gaurd, an Underbody Flush, Rainbow Coat, 3-Step Wheel Cleaning, and a spot-free rinse.

Exclusive to this wash package is Red Hot Cleanser, a cascade of dirt-penetrating foam that gives your car a total body cleanse. Also included is our exclusive Ceramic Body Wax®, a hot carnauba wax formula that fills in irregularities on your vehicle’s clear coat. The protective barrier makes your car easier to clean, working with the Rainbow Coat to help protect your finish in the long term.  

Finally, Tire Gloss is applied as you leave the tunnel, giving your tires a protective gloss coat and completing the clean. 

Take advantage of all the best Tommy’s has to offer, and wash with the WORKS!  

We know that our top package might not be for everyone. Check out our three other great wash packages and see if another one fits your needs best. 

#2 ULTIMATE 

The ULTIMATE includes Tommy Gaurd, the Underbody Flush, Rainbow Coat, and 3-Step Wheel Cleaning. Rainbow Coat applies gentle foam to help provide the deepest possible clean. 

Our 3-Step Wheel Cleaning makes sure your tires and rims come out gleaming. It’s ideal for big trucks, rural areas with dirt roads, and guests with offroad vehicles or 4-wheel drive. 

#3 SUPER

The SUPER comes with Tommy Guard, our specialty treatment designed to block UV light and protect your paint while also beading and repelling water for improved visibility. It’s what gives your vehicle that glossy showroom shine.

Also included is an Underbody Flush. Guests who live in snowy and sandy states love this gentle rinse that removes damaging salt, chemicals, and debris from the undercarriage of your car.

#4 QUALITY

The QUALITY is our most affordable option. Using high-quality detergents and just the right amount of water pressure, the QUALITY package includes a basic exterior wash with a spot-free rinse. While without the great bonuses like Ceramic Body Wax® or Tommy Gaurd, you can still expect a great clean.

Quality Car Wash, the precursor to the Tommy’s Express franchise model, started in 1969 with one car wash in Holland, Michigan.  

Since then, we’ve learned through decades of car wash operations and launched Tommy’s Express Car Wash as a nationwide car wash franchise in 2016.  

With over 140 locations across the U.S. and counting at the time of publishing, we’re primed for steady growth. 

“We foresee many years of 60 to 120 car washes a year,” CEO Alex Lemmen said, in reference to openings, “but with mature support for our franchise partners and a mature infrastructure.” 

Process of building a Tommy’s Express franchise

There are many items to check off the to-do list between signing a franchise agreement and washing cars. We call this the Tommy Journey. These are the four main steps:

1. Discovery 
   Future partners begin with the franchise webinar to answer the most frequently asked questions. When ready, a potential franchise partner signs a Franchise Disclosure Document to begin. Next, we host a tour of our West Michigan locations, and finally, the partner signs a franchise agreement.
2. Site selection 
   Next, franchise partners work closely with our real estate team to help find the perfect piece of land. Often, the search is not just for the best single site but, instead, looking for an area with several great opportunities that allow for market saturation.
3. Project development 
   This is the fun part! We’ll assign a project manager to check the boxes with a general contractor and help the process go as smoothly as possible. Franchise partners have a permanent franchise business consultant and a franchise marketing coordinator. Then, the equipment is installed and calibrated.
4. Operational 
   When it’s time to start washing cars, our team provides you with soft opening and grand opening support, ongoing national and regional marketing campaigns, and continued team member education through Tommy University.

Capital requirements and franchise fees

Have you thought about owning or operating a profitable franchise? Building and owning a Tommy’s Express requires a certain amount of capital. Financing options are available for qualified applicants. 

Full ownership requires liquid capital of US$2 million and a net worth of US$5 million.

Associated costs with running a Tommy’s Express franchise include a $50,000 initial franchise fee, 4% royalty, and 1% towards the national brand fund. 

Why Tommy’s Express?

When searching for a low-labor franchise opportunity, Tommy’s Express is an excellent choice.

Franchise Times named Tommy’s Express Car Wash the #1 smartest-growing franchise on the Fast & Serious List for 2023. Entrepreneur Magazine ranked us #1 in the car wash category on the Franchise 500 List for 2023.

We have owned and operated some of the busiest car washes in the world.

The post The Tommy’s Express franchise opportunity explained appeared first on Tommy's Express Car Wash.

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!

You can have a clean car vibe even if you can’t have that new car smell.

As the new year starts, make a car wash part of your new habits. 

Let’s keep the car a nice, calm space. There’s enough stress on the roads – don’t bring it into your vehicle. 

The psychology behind clean spaces

A cluttered space makes it more challenging to focus. For some people, when they come home from a busy day, a clean living area helps the brain turn off and relax. That feeling can be transferred to your work or creative space, as well as your home.

Some research shows that keeping a messy or clean space is about personality. We all can guess how Type A personalities keep their space tidy. Did you know that Type B personalities are more relaxed in how clean they keep their spaces?

“Rather than focusing on achieving perfection, they are more attracted to ideas, experiences, and creativity.” There are pros and cons to both types. The theme remains that clean spaces equate to less stress.

So why wouldn’t the same thing apply to your car?

Nail the first impression with a clean car

First impressions are less stressful when you’re sure to make a good one. Keep your car clean inside and out. You won’t regret being prepared for anything. 

Do you use your vehicle for business purposes? Are you in sales? What do you want your clients to see when you pull up to their business? You can join TommyClub® and wash as a PayPerWash or Unlimited member. Wash how you want!

It’s your reputation on the line. Make a great first impression with a clean car. It’s classy to be clean. Protect your brand image with a great impression.   

Put your best foot forward when you take advantage of all Tommy’s Express has to offer. Start with an awesome wash, and finish the job with all the little extras.  

Trust Tommy’s Express with your first impression

We’ve calibrated the wash to give you the perfect amount of each soap, scrub, rinse, and shine down the line. With our Underbody Flush, Tire Shine, perfectly pH-balanced bubbles, Ceramic Body Wax®, and a Spot-Free Rinse, you’ll be riding in style from front to back. You can’t help but be proud of how your vehicle looks when it shines.

Complete the clean on the inside with our free vacuums and floor mat washers. Looking to do your own interior detailing? Add a detail kit for just a few bucks and make it shine.

There’s something so satisfying about stepping into a clean car. Find your nearest Tommy’s Express and grab that clean car vibe! 

Your brain (and your vehicle) will thank you.
