Is your car is getting messy as a result of pets, friends, kids, etc? You may find yourself saying, “How can I keep my car’s interior clean with people constantly eating and kids and pets constantly making a mess in the backseat?” Though it may be hard to keep it clean, there are things you can do to help make a clean interior a reality.

First, you can insist that anything that people bring into the car, must be removed from it when they leave. This means that children need to be responsible for stuffed animals, books, cups, etc. In addition, you can put a limit on the number of items they can bring with them during each car ride.

Also, it is a good idea to keep a garbage bag in your car. This will be helpful to keep trash off your seats and floors. If you have children, it may be a good idea to leave your oldest child in charge of making sure the garbage makes it into the bag, and when the bag gets full it gets removed from the car.

In addition, be sure to buy spill-proof cups and snack bowls for toddlers. Purchasing a “snack trap” can help keep your child’s snacks from spilling onto the floor of your car.

Another helpful tip is to keep toothpaste in your car’s glove compartment. This will help save you from stains on your upholstery. You can rub it gently on ketchup and lipstick stains to remove them.

Purchasing rubber mats to put on top of your car’s carpet is a good way to keep the floor clean. If you do not want to spend additional money on new mats, you can turn your carpet mats upside down so that the rubber side is face-up.

It is not easy to keep your car’s interior clean when you live such a busy lifestyle. However, following these simple tips could help you. In addition to making sure your car stays clean, make sure it runs properly by performing all necessary maintenance and repairs. An auto warranty can help save you money so that you can make sure your car is running as nicely as your interior looks.
