The new Tucson location demonstrates Mister Car Wash’s growth and commitment to providing exceptional car care and customer service across the United States. Since its inception, Mister Car Wash has been dedicated to delivering an extraordinary car wash experience, and the opening of the 500th store exemplifies this ongoing commitment.

This achievement underscores our commitment to expanding our footprint and providing top-notch car wash services to communities nationwide.”
The Houghton Road location will feature a state-of-the-art tunnel experience with proprietary cleaning systems, eco-friendly products, and a dedicated team of professionals ready to deliver the high-quality service Mister Car Wash is known for. Customers can look forward to a seamless, efficient, and environmentally conscious car wash experience. In addition, Mister Car Wash offers a Titanium Wash featuring our exclusive Titanium 360™, a comprehensive wash formula that provides all-around protection, underbody corrosion defense, and a brilliant, mirror-like finish. This wash also features HotShine Carnauba Wax® to protect the vehicle and seal in a radiant shine and Platinum Repel Shield for a final protective finish that safeguards against dirt, bugs, and grime.
To celebrate this exciting milestone, Mister will host a free wash weekend from September 20-22, inviting the Tucson community to experience its top-tier car care services at no cost. Attendees can enjoy a complimentary Titanium Wash, valued at $25.00.

In celebration of reaching this significant milestone, Mister Car Wash is partnering with Tucson Clean & Beautiful (TCB) to plant 500 trees in Tucson. TCB, a non-profit organization founded in 1985, is dedicated to preserving and improving the environment, conserving natural resources, and enhancing the quality of life in Tucson and eastern Pima County. As part of this partnership, Mister Car Wash will cover the cost of the trees, and employees from the corporate office and local stores will actively participate in five tree-planting events between September 28 and October 26 demonstrating Mister Car Wash’s commitment to environmental sustainability and giving back to the Tucson community. The Houghton Road location will provide convenient, free vacuum stalls to keep cars spotless inside and out.
