Big Dan’s Car Wash Celebrates Grand Opening of First Tennessee Location with Free Car Washes, Community Giveback and Exclusive Membership Offer
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (July 22, 2026) – Big Dan’s Car Wash is bringing its signature wash experience to Tennessee with the grand opening of its newest location in Chattanooga at 5749 Brainerd Rd., on Wednesday, July 22. This marks the company’s first location in the Volunteer State.
To celebrate this exciting milestone, Big Dan’s is inviting the Chattanooga community to enjoy 17 days of Free WASHES. Customers will receive Big Dan’s Signature – The Auto-Graphx5 along with special giveaways, treats from local partners, and exclusive membership savings.
According to company president, Jay Shadday, the Tennessee location is the first of eight new locations slated to open over the next eight months, reflecting our aggressive growth strategy and commitment to expanding the Big Dan’s brand across the Southeast.
“With every new location, we’re strengthening the value of our unlimited membership, giving customers the freedom to enjoy the same fast, friendly service and premium wash experience at any Big Dan’s location, regardless of which state they’re in,” noted Shadday.
As part of the grand opening celebration, the first $5,000 in proceeds will be donated to Siskin Children’s Institute, helping support the organization’s mission of improving the lives of children with special needs and their families.
“We’ve been incredibly blessed by the communities we serve, and we believe every new location should begin by giving back,” said Tripp Flournoy, Chief Operating Officer. “Partnering with Siskin Children’s Institute allows us to make an immediate impact in Chattanooga while celebrating the opening of our first Tennessee location. We couldn’t ask for a better way to become part of this community.”
Guests who visit during the grand opening celebration can also take advantage of an exclusive membership offer by joining Big Dan’s Auto-Graphx5 Unlimited Membership for just $5 per month for the first three months, making it easier than ever to keep their vehicle clean while enjoying unlimited washes. The introductory $5 pricing is for a limited time.
The celebration doesn’t stop there. Big Dan’s has partnered with several local favorites—including Chick-fil-A, Brother’s Bagels, and 7 Brew—to surprise guests with special treats during the first few days of operation. Visitors will also have opportunities to take home Big Dan’s merchandise and other fun giveaways.
The Chattanooga grand opening festivities begin July 22 and continue for 17 days. Community members are encouraged to stop by, enjoy a free wash, support a great cause and experience why Big Dan’s is quickly becoming a favorite destination for drivers across the Southeast.
