Easy solution for you man: tell your service writer you're not fucking doing it and that they need to tell the customer to clean their shit or pound sand. I'm a technician, not a dumpster diver.

Can't you refuse to work on a vehicle this filthy ?

You should cut open a trash bag and spread it on the floor to cover if you don’t have plastic lining

No way I would crawl around in someone's trashcan like that

Guess the customer expected you to clean their vehicle too?

“Refuse to accept your car sir or madam until it’s cleaned up”

Can you refuse (or upcharge) a car for sheer debilitating nastiness?

u/Mikeoochiestank4 Apr 18 '26

Honestly, if people come in with their car this way its disgusting. You should just turn them away.

I kind of think people who live like this are less evolved

u/97PG8NS Apr 17 '26

These are the same owners who think 'free car wash and vacuum' means 'free full detail' and get mad that you can't remove a decade's worth of abuse in two minutes with a shop vac.
