Usually not. Many owners set up access by phone, with a key holder or property manager. Tell the team who has the keys and whether the building must stay open around the work.

Yes. Cleaners treat seats, carpet, headliners and vents, remove soaked materials and disinfect the cabin. Vehicles are often processed by law enforcement first, so confirm it has been released.
