People use both phrases. Most of the time they mean decontaminating a vehicle that holds blood or other body fluids. Chemical spills are a separate hazard, and a cleanup team can say whether it can handle a specific one.
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.
Many auto insurance policies cover some losses that are not collisions, and some policies exclude cleanup. Only your policy and your insurer can say. Call before cleanup starts, take photos and keep every receipt.
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.
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.
Yes. A regular detail cleans dirt and stains with household products. Biohazard car detailing starts with decontamination, then moves to restoring the finish. Skipping the first step leaves germs and odor behind.
