Crew Carwash Opens First Illinois Location in Champaign

INDIANAPOLIS (March 5, 2026) – Crew Carwash, a family-owned business, proudly announces the opening of its first Illinois location in Champaign. The new facility, located at 2029 N Prospect Ave, marks a significant milestone as Crew brings its signature “Clean, Fast and Friendly” service to a new state. With this opening, Crew now operates more than 55 locations across three states.

“We are thrilled to serve the Champaign community,” said Sally Grant, 3rd Generation Family Business Leader and EVP of Crew Carwash. “As a family-owned business, we’re committed to delivering a world-class car wash experience and creating meaningful job opportunities for team members.”

To celebrate the grand opening, Crew Carwash will be providing Free Ultimate 360° Washes ($29 value) for a limited time and free glass cleaner kits while supplies last.

Crew Carwash is thoughtfully designed to provide customers with a thorough and efficient vehicle cleaning experience. The new location features advanced soap and detergent application technology, energy-efficient all-electric motors, and LED lighting throughout the facility. An environmentally responsible water reclamation system captures and treats water for reuse during portions of the wash process, supporting sustainable operations.

In addition to the exterior wash, customers have access to self-serve vacuums and easy-to-use mat cleaners, allowing them to conveniently complete their vehicle cleaning in one visit.

Crew Carwash is open daily from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. during summer hours and 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. during winter hours.
