  • 1). Clear out all trash and large items from the inside of the car. Clean under the seats and check for large objects before vacuuming. Empty the ashtray.

  • 2). Pull out the floor mats and shake thoroughly.

  • 3). Remove the seat covers (if applicable) and wash them according to the directions. If you don't have a manual for the seat covers, call the store where you purchased them (or the car dealer, if you had them installed there) and ask for cleaning directions. You can wash some seat covers in the washing machine, but always check the directions first, because different materials require different care.

  • 5). Clean any stains on the floor mats using a scrub brush and carpet cleaner.
