Pets are family, but their fur can be a pain to deal with, especially in your car. If you're tired of vacuuming up pet hair, try these tips for removing it quickly and easily.

How to Remove Pet Hair From Car

Gather Your Supplies

Before you start cleaning, gather the following supplies:

  • Vacuum cleaner with a hose attachment
  • Rubber gloves
  • Lint roller
  • Damp cloth
  • Old towel
  • Pet hair remover brush

Prepare Your Car

Before you start cleaning, prepare your car by:

  • Rolling down the windows to air out the car.
  • Removing any loose items from the car, such as toys, blankets, and food wrappers.
  • Shaking out any mats or rugs.

Vacuum the Car

Start by vacuuming the car with the hose attachment. Be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies, including the seats, floorboards, and trunk.

Use a Lint Roller

Once you've vacuumed the car, use a lint roller to pick up any remaining pet hair. Roll the lint roller over the seats, floorboards, and trunk in long, even strokes.

Wipe Down the Surfaces

Use a damp cloth to wipe down the surfaces of the car, including the dashboard, steering wheel, and door panels. Be sure to wring out the cloth well so that you don't leave streaks.

Dry the Car

Use an old towel to dry the car. Be sure to dry all the surfaces, including the seats, floorboards, and trunk.

Use a Pet Hair Remover Brush

If you still have pet hair in your car, try using a pet hair remover brush. These brushes are designed to remove pet hair from upholstery and carpets. Simply brush the brush over the affected areas until the pet hair is gone.
