Getting Pet Hair Out of Your Car (Properly)
Why the vacuum isn't working
Pet hair, especially short, coarse dog hair, weaves itself into carpet and fabric. Every time someone sits down or the dog shifts around, it gets worked deeper. A vacuum pulls up loose hair on the surface but can't grab hair that's anchored in the fibers.
What actually gets it out
Removing embedded fur means loosening it first, working it out of the fibers with the right tools, and then vacuuming it away, section by section. It's slow, hands-on work, which is why it's priced separately from a regular interior detail.
What we charge
Pet hair removal is a $75 add-on. Text us a photo if it's a lot of fur, and we'll let you know what to expect.
It pairs best with the Essential Interior or SoCal's Signature Interior. If there's also an odor or stains from muddy paws, the Signature Interior's shampoo and steam take care of that too.
Keeping on top of it
- Use a seat cover or cargo liner for the dog.
- Brush your pet before car rides when you can.
- Vacuum little and often, before hair gets worked in.
- Book pet hair removal with your regular detail instead of letting it build up.
