Yes. Waste is lifted with protection, soaked materials are removed and surfaces are disinfected. Urine travels deep into foam, so seats may need to be taken out or replaced if the smell remains.
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.
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.
Vehicle biohazard cleanup is handled discreetly. Ask when you call about unmarked vehicles and quiet work. Cleaners are there for the owner, not to draw attention.
A rental company or fleet owner may handle cleaning through its own insurer or its own account. Ask the rental company or fleet manager who to call before you book work. The vehicle owner usually decides who is hired.
Cleaners follow rules designed to protect workers and the public from bloodborne pathogens, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030. They wear PPE and use EPA-registered disinfectants.
