Vehicles are small, closed spaces, so residue can build up on seats, carpets and vents. Crews use the same careful methods as in a building, and soft materials may need to be removed. Ask whether the team cleans vehicles and how soft materials are treated.
It depends on the size of the space, how far residue has spread, the materials involved and the gear needed. A cleanup team can give a real price after seeing or hearing about the site, and it should explain what is included before work starts.
It can. Clothing, bedding, bags and furniture in an affected space may carry powder. Do not shake them out. A team can advise on what to bag, clean or discard.
