Maintaining a clean car is no easy task—especially if you have kids, a dog, or are just a messy person in general. I honestly hate cleaning out my car, but it’s so much easier when you have the right tools. Keep your car, truck, or Jeep clean!
1 - Drop Stop
You know that space between your seat and the console. Yeah, that's probably the best hiding place in the world. This small space in your car can gobble up items like phones, lighters, pens, and its favorite—loose change! The best way to clean your car is to prevent the mess in the first place. Boom—the Drop Stop!
2 - Vacuum
Now of course the Drop Stop won't eliminate all your spills, so you'll need a backup plan. What better than a compact yet powerful car vacuum to keep your ride fresh and clean? A top option is the THISWORX model. It plugs right into your cigarette lighter and comes with several attachments, so you'll never need to visit the car wash again!
3 - Cleaning Gel
The next must-have car cleaning accessory is a lifesaver. This cleaning gel is like Robin and the vacuum is Batman. It reaches all those small, intricate spots the vacuum might miss. Honestly, you'll want to buy two—they work great on your computer keyboard too!
4 - Interior Cleaner & Protectant
Okay, now your car is clean—but how do you keep it looking amazing? Use a protectant! A good cleaner gives you that new car smell and showroom shine, but adding protectant keeps your ride looking great longer and reduces cleaning time. A solid option is from Chemical Guys. It costs less than many leading brands and delivers great results across most interior surfaces without spotting or staining.
5 - Car Wash Kit
Last but certainly not least is your car wash kit. Some people prefer the $3 drive-through wash, but nothing compares to handwashing your car or Jeep at home. There are many great kits out there, but one solid option comes from Chemical Guys. It includes all the necessary tools and runs about $100.
6 - Trash Can
Now that your ride is clean, keep it that way with a dedicated trash can—and stop using those plastic grocery bags. This helps control odors, keeps your interior looking sharp, and makes a great impression on passengers.
7 - Odor Fighting Air Freshener
Finally, odor-fighting air fresheners make every drive more enjoyable. You might not have a Bugatti—but it can smell better than one!
