Often, yes. Crews can work in a driveway, garage or lot, depending on space, weather and the extent of the contamination. Some vehicles are moved to an enclosed space to keep the work private and contained.
Ask who can release it before cleanup starts. Cleaners can usually begin once the vehicle is released to the owner or an authorized person. Ask the cleanup company about timing once the vehicle is released.
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.
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.
