Many Turo hosts have experienced this unfortunate scenario: we go to clean out our vehicle after a recent rental drop-off and get bombarded with literal smokescreen upon opening the driver door. There, fashioned nicely on the rear-view mirror, sits the black ice tree aimed at disguising the smoke smell.
Thankfully, there are some products available to assist with completely removing the odor for future guests.

5 Steps to Remove Smoke Odor:
-
Purchase an ozone generator. My recommendation.
-
Run the ozone generator in your car, cycling air throughout the interior to ensure complete scent removal.
-
For extreme cases, you may need to run the ozone generator multiple times to successfully remove odor.
-
Remove the ozone generator and “air” out the car of ozone buildup.
-
As a personal preference, I also like spraying a bit of Ozium in the interior to further ensure smoke removal.
