We're on West Carrillo Street in downtown Santa Barbara — easy to reach from every neighborhood and the 101.
Take the Carrillo Street exit. Turn left onto Carrillo and head toward the ocean. We're about three blocks down on the right side, between Chapala and Bath streets. The whole exit-to-shop drive takes about 60 seconds.
Take the Carrillo Street exit. Turn right onto Carrillo heading toward the beach. We're a few blocks west on the right. If you hit Bath Street, you've gone one block too far — loop back.
Head west on Carrillo from State Street. We're just two blocks down — you'll see us on the right. If you're walking, it takes about three minutes.
When you're here for a smog check, your car is with us in the bay — so parking isn't an issue. If you have a second vehicle or someone is dropping you off, there's metered street parking on Carrillo and free parking in the nearby downtown lots off Chapala Street.
Our downtown location is centrally positioned to serve drivers from every corner of Santa Barbara and beyond.
We're right in your neighborhood. Walk over from State Street, the Funk Zone, or the waterfront. Combine your smog check with whatever else you have going on downtown — it only takes 15 minutes.
A quick drive down De La Vina or Castillo brings you straight to our Carrillo Street shop. Many of our Westside regulars treat us as their go-to for both smog checks and regular maintenance.
Head west on Carrillo from Milpas and you're here in under five minutes. We're easy to get to from the Eastside without dealing with State Street traffic.
Come down Cliff Drive or Meigs Road to Castillo, then one block over to Carrillo. You'll barely have time to finish your podcast before you're pulling in.
Take the 101 north and exit at Carrillo. The drive from the Upper Village takes about 10 minutes — and it's enough to warm up your engine for the test.
Whether you're coming from Hope Ranch, the Riviera, San Roque, or even as far as Carpinteria, our downtown location is quick to reach from the 101. We serve drivers from all across the South Coast.
