What George Mason Drivers Ask About Vehicle Biohazard Cleanup
What about a car where someone died?
A vehicle where a death occurred is cleaned only after law enforcement or the medical examiner releases it. The team removes contaminated materials, disinfects and treats odor, which can settle into seats, headliner and vents.
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.
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.
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.
