Hazmat Car Cleaning and Decontamination in Carolina

A biohazard vehicle is one that has been contaminated with blood, vomit, urine, feces or decomposition. Such a car cannot be cleaned with soap and a vacuum, because the fluids soak into foam and carpet.

With about 52 inches of rain a year in Carolina, damp air and leaks can feed mold in a contaminated vehicle that was left sitting. Anyone hurt in a vehicle incident should be seen at South County Hospital Inc in Wakefield or by a doctor before anyone thinks about the cabin.

Questions About Biohazard Car Cleaning in Carolina

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.

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.

Can the vehicle be cleaned where it is parked?

Often, yes. Crews can work in a driveway, garage or lot, depending on space, weather and the extent of the contamination. Some vehicles are moved to an enclosed space to keep the work private and contained.

How much does biohazard car cleaning cost?

The biohazard car cleaning cost depends on the type of vehicle, the size of the contamination, what the fluid soaked into and how much waste is removed. A cleanup company gives a price after seeing the vehicle. Some teams offer payment plans, so ask when you call.

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.
