It depends on the vehicle, the amount of contamination and how much has to be removed. A single stained seat is a shorter job than a cabin with fluids on many surfaces. Odor treatment can add time.
Ask who can release it before cleanup starts. Cleaners can usually begin once the vehicle is released to the owner or an authorized person. Ask the cleanup company about timing once the vehicle is released.
Yes, in most cases. Hard surfaces and many seats can be cleaned and disinfected. Foam, carpet and padding that soaked through are usually removed, because blood and odor stay in them.
