Bright Car Wash

This place is really awesome! First the idea of turning an unused old wagon into a car wash is a Brilliant idea! Second, they are super friendly and they do a great team work. They are thorough and complete. It’s worth to get your car cleaned here. For 30 bucks I got complete detailing and for first time customers, they even provide lots of offers. So go check it out.

Awesome, awesome car wash. I’ve used several hand washes in the city and this is the best I’ve come across. The owner, Brandon, and the rest of the guys are super friendly. They always welcome the work, even if it’s 95 degrees outside. The car wash looks deceiving, since it is a blue tarp outside a red train caboose, but give it a chance.
I always get the $ 27 interior/​exterior wash (sometimes with a $ 2 trunk vacuum). For $ 37, you can get an interior/​exterior wash with leather conditioning. To me, that’s not worth it as I can quickly condition my leather in 5 minutes at home. I hate vacuuming my interior, though, so I come to Bright for the dirty work!
These guys know I baby my car, and they respect that. They do an excellent and thorough job of cleaning both the interior and exterior. They work hard for their money and deserve it! I’ve never had to wait when I have come over lunch during the week and the wash took about a half hour. Compare this to Avril’s hand wash which can be an hour and a half wait for a decent job, and Bright Car Wash makes way more sense.
If there is a spot that was missed, just point it out and it will be taken care of. These guys aren’t looking to just do the work and get out. They understand good business and making the customers happy, and wanting to come back.

I am surprised at how many awesome reviews this place got. For this reason, I went to check it out. However, I came out extremely disappointed. People are right to say that the crew is super friendly, that is spot on. However, the actual wash was not very good. They missed a bunch of spots on my right, rear passenger door as well as a lot on the trunk. Also, they completely did not even touch my center console. It was not vacuumed out or anything. They also did not vacuum or clean out my kids’ car seats.
Yeah, they are very nice and the train ambience/​setting is «cool», but the entire reason for going — to get your car clean — was not up to par.

Stopped here after seeing good reviews and was not disappointed!!! These guys are friendly and VERY thorough. For the service provided the price is unbelievable (very reasonable). Will be coming here from now on! VERY IMPRESSED!!!

I just got back from my first trip to Bright Car Wash –it will not be my last! It is a group of very hard working young men there. They truly understand customer service. They offered to include waxing my car at no extra charge since it was my first trip. I have been to a LOT of other car wash places in Dunwoody, this is by far the best. They were so detailed and they wanted me to come back! I had a ton of sand and dog hair in my car from my trip to the beach. The car now looks brand new! Most of the other places I have been to could have cared less about me or if I returned. Thanks again! I will be back!

Highly recommended. Great guys. Great job and reasonable rates as well.

Brandon runs a good, tight ship here! Can’t beat the price and quality of work. Brandon and his guys are meticulous. They are constantly inspecting behind each other to make sure your car is done to the highest quality! I highly recommend this car wash and support Brandon’s small business!

Hidden gem. Two hard working men washes your car. Had a relaxing time under the shadow after big lunch. Seems the job is done well and with reasonable prices.
Will come back.

Don’t go to fast or you’ll miss it. This place is just a red caboose in a parking lot. The first thing that struck me was how incredibly polite the guy was when I pulled up. He was definitely the one in charge, so I assume he is the Brandon the other reviewers mention. I got the $ 27 dollar deal, which was full exterior and interior detailing, but he gave me a $ 5 discount because it was my first time. I haven’t been in Atlanta long, but at least compared to where I used to live, that’s a really good price.
It was a Saturday late morning and he had at least 2 or 3 other guys there working with him. I had to wait a little while, but they did a good job. I waited inside the caboose, which, maybe it’s just me, but I thought that was kind of cool =). It’s not luxury, but it was air conditioned and comfortable enough.
When my car was done, he came up to let me know. Although my car looked nice and shiny, while I was paying (they accept cards) I noticed there were some specks on the window. I didn’t say anything about it, because overall they did a good job and it didn’t cost that much. But the owner noticed and called over the guy who worked on it and had him remedy the situation. That small thing made a difference to me, that he inspected the vehicle himself and takes pride in their work to make sure it’s done right. The price, the quality of the job, the owner’s vigilance, and the fact that he was extremely polite and friendly make me give this place 5 stars! =)

Bright Car Wash came highly recommended in this area. It seems a little shady when it’s empty because no one’s around, but rest assured they’re open. Their hours and prices aren’t listed, so here’s what’s what:
— $ 27 for exterior and interior
— $ 37 includes the above and leather conditioning
— A full detail is like $ 125
— They’re open from 10am to 7pm, not exactly sure which days, but definitely Monday thru Friday
I waited a little over half an hour for them to do the job which was ok because they were efficient. It’s primarily a 2-​man job, but eventually another car showed up, so each man worked on each car. There’s not much of a place to wait, except a few folding chairs outside, even though you can wait in the caboose.
My car is clean and I’m happy. I’d recommend paying these guys with cash. It’s just easier and for a small business, you know those credit card companies usually take a fee/​percentage per transaction. The price was a little more expensive than some of the bigger car wash places I’ve been to, but they paid much more attention to detail including door jams where dirt and such accumulates.

ATTN: Brandon now accepts cards, which is a huge plus to this hidden gem! Reasonable prices, kind gentleman, and a clean car. What more do you need from car wash?

Very nice and quick job at a reasonable price. I went for the full $ 27 service (including vacuuming/​upholstery) and they left every inch from tires to floor mats sparkling.
Agree with others: there isn’t anywhere very appealing to wait, but as I was the only customer at the time (a weekday afternoon) it went pretty quickly.

This place is fantastic. Yes, it’s a two-​man show hitched to a defunct caboose, but when you see their output, all doubt goes out the window. The owner Brandon is gracious, helpful & thorough. I brought my car to him a little cautious after a loaner returned it in less than stellar shape, reeking with smoke despite my clear NO SMOKING in my car policy due to allergies.
He gave a 30 min ETA & I returned to find my car finished and gleaming. Inside was so clean, I instantly cheered up. He added extra air freshener to completely remove the smoke but my gls was super fresh & clean from dash to trunk.
Take your car to Brandon. You’ll love the outcome. Not sure what home girl meant by sketchy – the red caboose adds character, and they’re working on turning the inside into a cooler spot & sitting area. With stellar work and a GREAT price, there’s no better place to take my car than this Dunwoody car wash/​detailer.

This place is sketchy. I missed it after first looking for a typical car wash, but it’s a train. A big red train. It’s hot and stuffy in there so I waited outside until my car was cleaned. One man show type of deal. 22 bucks for a full detail. There were still some specks on my window, but it happens.

Nicest men and great price! My car is literally spotless!!! Not a great place to bring kids to wait so make sure you are child free when you go! And only $ 22! Amazing job. FYI they only take cash.

$ 22 for a full detail. The main guy Brandon is incredibly personable and friendly. I’d normally expect to pay $ 100 for the kind of job they do. Excellent place to get your car looking like new.

Recommended, always get a hand car wash and not the machine. Great job and a solid price. No waiting area so head over to the Mexican joint and grab some food or a drink. Spot is right in front of a decommissioned caboose.

Best car wash in the city! This hand wash is tucked away in a parking lot near the intersection of Shallowford and Savoy. Just look for the big red train car. These guys do a great job though. They always leave my vehicles sparkling clean inside and out! They’re really good about getting inside the chip holders and even shining the dash and doors. If you’re looking for a great hand wash at a reasonable price, this is the place to go.
