Nobody likes getting into a car that has a foul odor. Whether you're driving around Bremerton or taking a road trip, a fresh-smelling vehicle makes the experience much more pleasant. Fortunately, there are several simple steps you can take to eliminate odors and keep your car smelling great. These tips work well for both new and used vehicles, like the quality pre-owned cars available in our used inventory at Truck Town.
First, vacuum your car's interior regularly, especially the carpets and upholstery where odors can become trapped. Sprinkling baking soda on the fabric before vacuuming can help neutralize stubborn smells. It's also important to remove any trash or food items from your car daily, as these are common sources of unpleasant odors. Wiping up spills immediately will prevent them from soaking in and causing lingering odors.
Using an air freshener or scented diffuser is an easy way to create a welcoming aroma in your vehicle. With consistent upkeep and a regular cleaning schedule, you can ensure your car stays smelling fresh and inviting. If your car develops a stubborn odor that you can't remove, consider having the interior professionally detailed to deep clean and eliminate the smell at its source.
