Hazmat Car Cleaning and Decontamination in Exeter
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.
Owners, adjusters, tow yards and fleet managers in Exeter and Luzerne County who need your vehicle made safe can call Exeter Biohazard Cleanup Help for local vehicle biohazard cleanup.
Even with milder July highs near 85 degrees in Exeter, a parked car traps heat, so fluid odors can still build quickly. Vehicles that carried someone to Geisinger-community Medical Center in Scranton often have blood or fluids on the seats, and cleanup can begin once everyone is safe.

Vehicle Biohazard Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in Exeter, PA
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.
How do I get vomit smell out of a car?
Remove the source first, since the smell comes from fluid trapped in seats, carpet and seams. Surface sprays only cover it. A biohazard car cleaning team removes soaked materials, disinfects and treats odor in the cabin and vents.
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.
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 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.
