Disinfectant stays wet on every surface for the label time. The crew then checks the work and takes the waste out.

Yes. Blood on seats, floor mats, door panels and in trunks is cleaned and disinfected, and heavily soaked upholstery may need removal. Vehicle jobs follow the same protective steps as work inside a building.
Use disposable gloves, eye protection, disposable absorbent towels and a disinfectant that is EPA-registered for bloodborne pathogens. Follow the label for how long the surface must stay wet. Bag the used materials and keep them away from other people.
Disposable absorbent towels are usually used so they can be bagged and thrown out as waste. Cloth towels that touch blood become contaminated laundry and need careful handling. Either way, wear gloves and never reuse a towel on another surface.
Safely cleaning up blood means gloves, eye protection, disposable absorbent towels and an EPA-registered disinfectant used by the label. A small spill on a hard surface can be managed with that protection. Large spills, or blood that soaked into carpet or wood, call for a cleanup team.
It depends on the germ and the conditions, and nobody can judge it by looking at a stain. Hepatitis B, for example, can survive on surfaces for a considerable time. That is why dried blood is treated as infectious until it has been properly disinfected.
Usually not. Small amounts of blood on a hard surface can be cleaned with gloves and a disinfectant. A cleanup service becomes useful when the spill is large, has soaked in, reached several rooms or involved another person's blood.
