Can a vehicle be cleaned after a death?
In many cases, yes. Death in vehicle cleanup removes blood, bodily fluids and decomposition materials from seats, carpet, padding and hidden areas, cleans and disinfects all surfaces, and treats odor at the source. When contamination is extensive, some components are replaced. Personal belongings are recovered and cleaned when possible.
Handled with care
Deaths in vehicles happen after medical events, suicides and accidents, and sometimes they are not discovered for days. In a closed vehicle, heat speeds up decomposition, and fluids and odor move into every soft surface.
We coordinate directly with tow yards and impound lots, recover personal belongings for the family, and restore the vehicle whenever it is possible. When it is not, we provide documentation for insurance.
