Biohazard Vehicle Cleanup for Drivers and Businesses in Madison
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 Madison and Somerset County who need your vehicle made safe can call Madison Biohazard Cleanup Help for local vehicle biohazard cleanup.
Yearly rainfall in Madison averages about 42 inches, and a wet or leaky cabin can make fluid contamination worse. Dry the interior and call a cleanup team. Anyone hurt in a vehicle incident should be seen at Redington Fairview General Hospital in Skowhegan or by a doctor before anyone thinks about the cabin.
A typical vehicle biohazard cleanup job includes:
- A final inspection of the cabin, with notes for insurers on request
- Odor treatment for seats, carpet, headliner and the ventilation system
- Cleaning of seat belts, seat tracks, seams, cup holders and cargo areas
- Commercial vehicle biohazard cleanup for rental and fleet vehicles
- Vomit, urine and feces cleaned from front and back seats and floor mats

Questions About Biohazard Car Cleaning in Madison
How long does vehicle biohazard cleanup take?
It depends on the vehicle, the amount of contamination and how much has to be removed. A single stained seat is a shorter job than a cabin with fluids on many surfaces. Odor treatment can add time.
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 rules do vehicle biohazard cleaners follow?
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.
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.
Will a vehicle history report show a biohazard?
It may, or it may not. It depends on whether an insurer, a salvage record or a title brand noted the contamination. Ask the seller, the insurer or the title office, and keep cleaning records.
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.
