This could also forfeit any reservations fees that were paid due to driver arrival and departure with an empty spot. This would be considered a wasted space which also means a waste for diesel fuel and time. The goal of a reservation fee is to hold the spot and move the car. This amount is usually part of your car shipping cost. |

✔️ Spray Inside With Disinfectant
Spraying the inside of your vehicle prior to entry is a good way to kill any lingering bacteria that may be on the surfaces or the air. Any spray disinfectant should be good as long as it contains over 60% alcohol which is the best ingredient in killing germs. This should be done when releasing or receiving the car. A good mist of spray over the seat and interior is a good way to kill bacteria. |
✔️ Wipe Steering Wheel
With a clean towel, make sure to wipe down every area the midst of spray came into contact with to make sure you stop the spread of any virus which may be lingering. This is very important as step as the steering wheel is what you will be handling the entire time you are driving. If you do not have a disinfectant with more than 60 percent alcohol, then do the best you can with what you have. Any cleaning agent with some type of soap is better than nothing. |
✔️ Sanitize Your Hands
Before boarding and pushing the ignition, make sure to sanitize your hands with some type of disinfectant. A good hand sanitizer with alcohol content over 60% should be sufficient. This will actively kill any unwanted germs which may have spread to your finger tips when wiping the car down. |
