What's Included in an Interior Detail?

An interior detail is a deep clean of your whole cabin: seats, carpets, mats and every hard surface, not just a vacuum and a wipe. Steam and the right tools pull out the dirt, spills and odors that a regular cleaning leaves behind. It is the service most people want before holiday travel, when the car fills up with family, luggage and food. At Pristine Auto Detail in Prescott, an interior detail starts at $300 for cars, $350 for mid-size trucks and SUVs, and $400 for large trucks and SUVs.

What does an interior detail clean?

• Seats: fabric or leather, including the seams and the gaps where crumbs collect.
• Carpets and floor mats: the dirt, dust and winter cinders tracked in on everyone's shoes.
• Hard surfaces: the dash, console, door panels, cup holders and vents.
• Under and between: under the seats and along the tracks, where steam reaches what a vacuum cannot.

Why book one before Thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26. If you are picking up relatives, driving to Phoenix for dinner or hauling dishes across the Quad Cities, a clean cabin makes the trip easier. Late November also brings the first cold mornings, averaging around 30°F, so mud and cinders start coming in on boots. Cleaning it out now means you are not starting the holidays with fall dust in the carpet.

Which add-ons are worth it?

• Pet hair or a very dirty vehicle: add $75. Dog hair takes extra time to pull out of carpet.
• Ozone odor removal: $85 per treatment, for smoke, pet or food smells that cleaning alone will not lift.
• Interior coating: $150 per row. It protects hard surfaces, carpet and fabric, so the next spill wipes up.

Should you do the inside and outside together?

If the outside needs it too, yes. Our full interior and exterior detail starts at $375 for cars, $425 for mid-size trucks and SUVs, and $475 for large ones. That is less than booking both separately. See what each covers on our auto detailing in Prescott Valley page, or compare every option on our detailing packages page.
