Vehicle Biohazard Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Arlington Hills, Jacksonville, FL
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.
What should I do before the cleaners get there?
Call 911 first if anyone is hurt. Keep people and pets away from the vehicle, do not drive it, and do not wipe or spray the fluids. Take photos for insurance and note what the contamination touched.
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.
Can a car with blood in it be cleaned?
Yes, in most cases. Hard surfaces and many seats can be cleaned and disinfected. Foam, carpet and padding that soaked through are usually removed, because blood and odor stay in them.
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.
Is hazmat car cleaning the same as biohazard car cleaning?
People use both phrases. Most of the time they mean decontaminating a vehicle that holds blood or other body fluids. Chemical spills are a separate hazard, and a cleanup team can say whether it can handle a specific one.
