Welcome back to another weekly blog! This week we would like to discuss the importance of making sure that your vehicle is clean and disinfected this spring, especially with some of the events that have been taking place recently. Below, you will find a list of things you should be disinfecting and why it is so important to clean and disinfect your vehicle. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our team at your convenience. We are here to help you and your family through this difficult time.

Disinfect areas such as:

• Your volume controls
• Temperature controls
• Steering wheel
• All handles interior and exterior
• Gear shift and emergency brake

Vacuum your vehicle:

• While you’re disinfecting your vehicle, it’s important to also clean up as much as possible. We recommend that you vacuum your vehicle. This includes your seats, floors, floor mats, trunk, and even get the hose attachments out to vacuum up any dust living on surfaces.

Replace air and cabin filters:

• The spring is a time where germs are budding and that could lead to some negative health benefits. Your air and cabin filters keep those germs from making their way into your vehicle’s cabin so we recommend replacing them to ensure that you’re breathing in clean air.

Going forward keep these items in your vehicle:

• Hand sanitizer
• Antibacterial wipes
• Disinfectant spray
• Wash your hands before and after driving

The purpose of cleaning/ disinfecting as recommended by the CDC:

• Cleaning refers to the removal of germs, dirt, and impurities from surfaces. Cleaning does not kill germs, but by removing them, it lowers their numbers and the risk of spreading infection.
• Disinfecting refers to using chemicals to kill germs on surfaces. This process does not necessarily clean dirty surfaces or remove germs, but by killing germs on a surface after cleaning, it can further lower the risk of spreading infection.
