B & G Smog

This is the best smog shop, bar none. Honest and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them.

Really the nicest people ever! Smog check was very fast but we almost didn’t want to leave! Very cozy and pleasant waiting room with lots of fun toys for my son. Brightened our day to be there (seriously!) and we’ll definitely go back whenever we need a smog check.

Good Morning!
This place is OPEN at 8am, and I am sooooo glad I called early this morning: D
Phone is (530) 532‑4449, no appointment needed, but always great to call ahead and double check! Located at 1900 Huntoon Street in Oroville, CA 95 966.
Yesterday, I did my DMV car registration renewal Online and was shocked that I needed a Smog!?! Never done one before on my car, since I bought it New, but I guess it was time… I actually read about this place on Unilocal and it had excellent 5 star reviews. When I called, the nice man gave me directions and told me the exact amount a smog cost, of $ 40.25.
I found the place easily, I was driving on Oro Dam Blvd, turned Left on Lincoln towards Popeye’s corner, pass les schwab, keep driving on the one way street curve, and you’ll see B and G on the left hand side. I never been in this area before and you can’t miss the B and G sign out front!
I met Gina right away, she was very friendly and gave us a business card, plus a business magnet, and I signed the paperwork. I brought my mom with me, so we went to the Waiting Room. It’s a small room and it smelled soooo good, had a very nice fragrance in the air and it had some neat décor. I couldn’t help myself, took a few pictures because they have LOTS of reading material, books, free Oroville Mirror newspapers, there is a kids corner to play in, and the best part is No TV. It was nice and quiet, there are plenty of chairs to sit and complimentary candy/​mints. I loved seeing Glenda good witch picture from the Wizard of Oz, there is cool stuff on the walls to look at.
Time flew by way fast, we were there less than 15 minutes and next thing I know the car is ready and PASSED everything. I paid $ 40.25 and the Smog certificate goes Electronically to the DMV. What a piece of cake!!! It’s such a relief to get it done and top it off with excellent friendly professional customer service. What a very nice couple we met today :) I HIGHLY recommend coming to this business for Smog check if you live in Butte County. I drove here from Gridley and it was worth it! Thank you so much Brett and Gina Russell :)

Great smog shop in Oroville. The people there are very pleasant & the waiting room is comfortable & homey. I had to take my 3 yr old little girl with me & I was very happy they had an adorable (& CLEAN) kids corner in the waiting area. We will definitely be coming back :)

Been going to another place for a while and happened upon this little gem. Little Ma & Pa business with a very comfortable environment. I really don’t want to turn this into a «better than the other place» type review as I try not to to be overly negative, but I will simply say this was the easiest most comfortable smog I’ve had ever in Oroville (and buying and selling a lot of vehicles I’ve had a number of them!) Nice clean environment and obviously a well ran shop that takes pride in their business. I’ve found my new smog place!

Privately owned, my family has been coming here for years. Everyone is really nice. The job is done well and there’s treats in the waiting room!

They did a great job, no appointment needed. Mom and pop style what great service.

This is what Ma & Pa businesses are all about: Customer service!
They treated us, and our older car with respect. We plan on bringing the car back as time is money and money is time. They will do a repair on our car that will be about the same as «OUR» time and money.
To add a finishing touch of good ol’ business, we received a simple «Thank You» card in the mail for bringing our car to be smogged. Now when was the last time you received a Thank You card?
