- Soaked seat foam, carpet, padding and headliner removed as waste

Common Questions About Cleaning a Biohazard Car in Waterflow
What is a biohazard vehicle?
A biohazard vehicle is a car, truck, van or bus that has been contaminated by blood, body fluids, waste or decomposition. Because these materials can carry infectious germs, the vehicle needs decontamination, not just a wash.
Is biohazard car detailing different from a regular detail?
Yes. A regular detail cleans dirt and stains with household products. Biohazard car detailing starts with decontamination, then moves to restoring the finish. Skipping the first step leaves germs and odor behind.
What is a biohazard salvage car?
A salvage vehicle is one an insurer has declared a total loss. Some are also tagged for contamination when blood or fluids were involved. Labels and rules vary, so ask the insurer or the state title office what applies to a specific vehicle.
What is biohazard chemical damage on a car?
It refers to a vehicle damaged by a biohazard, such as blood or body fluids, or by a chemical spill. Both kinds of contamination call for protective gear and specialized cleaning. A cleanup team can tell which applies after seeing the vehicle.
Can I clean a small spill in my car myself?
A small spill on a hard surface can be cleaned with gloves, eye protection and an EPA-registered disinfectant. Do not do it with an open cut, and do not use the car until fluids that soaked into fabric are removed. For larger spills, call a cleanup team.
What if the vehicle is held by police or a tow yard?
Ask who can release it before cleanup starts. Cleaners can usually begin once the vehicle is released to the owner or an authorized person. Ask the cleanup company about timing once the vehicle is released.
