How We Remove Smoke Odors

1. Locate the Source of the Odor

When it comes to cigarette smoke odor, every surface in your vehicle needs to be treated like a source of odor. However, we go the extra mile by inspecting your vehicle and removing necessary seating, panels, and plastics to expose hidden ash

2. Eliminate & Clean Contaminants

We thoroughly deep-clean all interior surfaces, focusing on removing hidden and remaining ash. We reinstall all previously removed pieces after they have been cleaned. This detailed process takes more time and involves extra vacuuming, shampooing, and cleaning. For example, vacuuming remaining ash in the vehicle adds on a few more hours of vacuuming compared to our standard Interior Detail. This cleaning process takes an entire day of work.

3. Chlorine Dioxide Treatment

An overnight chlorine dioxide treatment completely removes odors from your vehicle. The gas reaches deep into fabrics, fills air vents, and covers the entire car. Your previous air filter is replaced with a new, clean charcoal air filter.

❛❛I recently got a used car from CarMax and there was an awful cigarette smell left from the owner before. I had the interior detailed and the cigarette smoke smell removed by Clean My Car and I am blown away by how great my car looks and smells now! I can’t even tell a smoker had been in it.

They spent the time to take my car apart and clean out all of the ash I didn’t even know was there. Their knowledge and skill is unmatched. I was also comforted by the open and frequent communication they provided too. I would recommend Clean My Car to everyone I know!!❜❜

How long does the process take?

Can I still book free pick-up and drop-off delivery when I book this service?

Yes! We like to keep appointments convenient for our customers. If you are unable to drop off and pick up the vehicle yourself, allow our team to handle the transportation for you. 

Why don't you use an ozone machine for odor removal?

We used to use ozone machines to remove odors, but chlorine dioxide works better. With chlorine dioxide, we can apply the right amount for each car, and the gas reaches deep into fabrics and air vents—making it much more effective at eliminating smoke odors.

Is the smoke odor removal service guaranteed?

Because everyone’s sense of smell is different, we can’t make absolute guarantees. However, our goal is always to bring your vehicle’s smoke odor down to zero—on a scale of one to ten. With our proven process, our customers have fully been satisfied with the results.
