A new oil change spot is opening in a fast-growing part of Lexington County. Here’s where
Has that “change oil soon” light that is probably illuminated on your car dashboard been bugging you?
If you’re in Lexington County, you’ll soon have a new place to get that taken care of.
A new Take 5 Oil Change is set to open at 1846 South Lake Drive in the Red Bank area, according to a release from commercial real estate firm Cypress Development Partners. The real estate company said the new Take 5 is expected to open the week of Sept. 19.
There are currently five other Take 5 locations in the Midlands. The chain is known for its speedy oil changes — one of its catchphrases claims the “fastest oil change on the planet” — where customers remain in their car while the work is completed.
The new Red Bank spot is a 1,500-square-foot building with three drive-in bays. It is in a bustling commercial area near a Lowe’s Home Improvement and a Walmart, and a new Chick-fil-A opened on nearby Platt Springs Road earlier this year. More than 28,000 cars pass by the Take 5 site every day, per state traffic count data.
“We are excited to wrap up construction on this new Take 5 Oil Change,” Cypress Development Partners development associate Tyler Baldwin III said in a statement. “Red Bank is a growing and vibrant community in the Midlands, and Take 5 will offer folks in this area a fast and convenient option for their automotive care.”
Take 5 Oil Change is part of a large family of automotive brands that also includes Take 5 Car Wash. A Take 5 Car Wash location is under construction on Augusta Road in West Columbia.
