Dirty
car carpets
can definitely be confusing, but it’s simple enough to clean one! For a dirty car carpet, your best bet is to start with a steam cleaner or carpet cleaning machine.
If your carpet isn’t removable, don’t stress; you can also use a portable carpet cleaner with a small attachment to fit in the car. All of these options will deep-clean the carpet with water and shampoo, so that you can be absolutely sure that your carpet is as clean as possible!
Once you’ve cleaned up your carpet, you may also want to consider cleaning up your car insurance, so that you’re covered for any eventuality.
To do this easily, check out the
Jerry
app. We’ll get you personalized quotes from top-of-the-line providers, so that all you need to do is pick the plan that works best for you. And once you’ve picked one, we’ll even help you switch!
Happy cleaning!
