Trucks are durable vehicles that can withstand a lot of heavy use, but that doesn't mean they’re impervious to dirt and grime. The interior of the vehicle, from the seats and dashboard to the truck floor mats and ceiling, often collects dirt tracked in from the outside. Here are a few tips to help you make your truck interior sparkle.

How to Clean a Truck Interior

1. Vacuum

The wand attachment on your vacuum cleaner is an indispensable tool for truck cleaning. Run the attachment over all seats, getting into the folds and crevices.

Remove the truck floor mats, shake them out well, and vacuum both sides thoroughly. Before replacing them, vacuum the floor under the seats and in the rest of the cab.

Move the attachment over the console and dashboard as well as between the slats in all vents. If the interior roof is covered in fabric, run the wand across that too.

2. Clean the Windows

Clean windows are crucial for a clear view and safe driving. The outsides of windows are always included in an exterior truck wash, but they can easily be overlooked when cleaning the interior.

Spray a standard glass cleaner on your windows and wipe the glass with a paper towel or microfiber cloth—first up and down, then side to side—until dry.

3. Invest in Coverings

Protective coverings will make cleaning easier and better safeguard the fabric and surfaces of your truck interior.

Seat covers defend against dirt and damage, plus they can be easily removed and washed.

Truck floor mats only require a quick vacuum, and they prevent wear and tear on the floor.

A steering wheel cover makes the wheel comfortable to grip while keeping it clean and free of hand indentations and stains.
