If you have driven down North 2nd East recently, you have undoubtedly noticed the recently updated and renovated Nitro Station (along with it's accompanying Nitro Express Lube). They pride themselves on being more than just a gas station. In fact, they are changing what it means to visit a local service station.
While the lot has actually hosted a fuel station for over 60 years, originally known to long-time Madison County residents as Ray’s Chevron, the current owners took over in 2018. In 2023, they decided the old building simply wasn't giving the Rexburg community the beautiful space it deserved. So, they demoed the entire site to the ground. After an intensive 18-month, top-to-bottom rebuild, they opened the brand-spanking-new Nitro Station.
The result? A community-first destination that will make you rethink every negative stereotype you’ve ever had about gas stations.
Let's face it, most gas station bathrooms range from passable to downright horrifying. Nitro Station has made it their literal mission to break this mold. One of their core mottos is to have the cleanest bathrooms in the world. They go so far above and beyond that the women’s restrooms feature a fresh bouquet of flowers every single day. The owners take so much pride in this standard of cleanliness that they've joked about being willing to eat right off the floor.
Step inside the convenience store and you won't get a standard, blank stare from a cashier. You will be greeted with a warm, "Welcome home!" Nitro Station intentionally hires team members who are there to show genuine love, compassion, and helpfulness.
This isn't just a corporate talking point, either. Locals have already experienced it firsthand. Whether it's a team member moving your food under a heat lamp to keep it warm while you grab a drink, or lube bay technicians stepping outside to help a driver patch up a minor vehicle issue on the fly just because they noticed a loose part, the crew here is actively looking out for you.
The rebuild allowed Nitro Station to raise their ceilings from a cramped eight feet to a towering, open design so guests never feel claustrophobic. The expanded facility acts as a true one-stop shop. Not only can you get a premium, ultra-fast oil change at the Express Lube, but the station also features a customized Swig drive-thru for your favorite dirty sodas, and hot food options like Krispy Krunchy Chicken.
Nitro Station was built specifically for customers to have a beautiful, clean, and uplifting place to stop. Next time you need to top off your tank, grab a quick bite, or get your oil changed, pull into Nitro and enjoy an experience that genuinely feels like home.
