A typical vehicle biohazard cleanup job includes:
Nobody sits inside. The crew sets up protection and puts on gloves, eye protection and protective clothing.
Cleaners set up protection, seal off the working area and keep people away from the vehicle.
Contaminated materials come out first. The cabin is cleaned and disinfected, and odor is treated at its source.
Waste is packed for regulated disposal. A final visual check makes sure nothing was missed.

Odor treatment is added when the smell has settled into fabric, foam or the ventilation system, because it takes extra products and time.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
