An interior car detail usually takes about 2 to 4 hours for a typical vehicle, with heavily soiled interiors taking longer. A quick interior clean can be closer to 1 to 2 hours, while deep cleaning with pet hair, stains, or odor removal may take 3 to 6 hours or more.
-What changes the time?
•Vehicle size: larger SUVs, trucks, and vans take longer than sedans.
•Condition: pet hair, spills, heavy dust, and stained carpets add time.
•Service level: a basic vacuum-and-wipe is much faster than shampooing seats and carpets.
-For most customers, I’d quote:
•Clean interior: 1.5 to 2 hours.
•Average interior detail: 2 to 4 hours.
•Heavy cleanup: 4 to 6+ hours
