What the work involves
The company removes and cleans what it can: seat covers, foam, carpet and the padding under it. Some parts may have to be replaced instead. Hard surfaces and the air vents are cleaned and disinfected.
If the vehicle was part of a police matter, it may be held until it is released. Ask the officers when and where you can collect it.
Before you call
- Note where the vehicle is and whether it can be driven or needs to be towed.
- Take a few photos for your insurer, if you are able to.
- Call your auto insurer and ask whether comprehensive coverage applies.
- Keep the report number if police were involved.
Questions
Can the company come to where the car is?
Some can work on site, others prefer the vehicle at their shop. Ask on the call.
