What do “Biohazard,” “Chemical,” and “Environmental” mean in a car auction?

The designation “BC – Biohazardous/Chemical” indicates that the vehicle may contain biological or chemical substances that pose potential risks to humans, animals, or the environment.

Examples of Biohazardous and Chemical Contaminants

• Body fluids
• Human tissue or blood
• Recombinant DNA or hazardous chemicals
• Biochemical substances or toxic chemicals

Why Is This Important?

Understanding these classifications helps bidders make informed decisions before participating in an auction. Biohazard cleanup requires professional attention and involves:

• Decontamination and disinfection
• Odor elimination and sanitization
• Removal of biological hazards

This process ensures the vehicle is safe for future use after thorough cleaning.
