We spend a lot of time in our cars, which is why they’re such a big part of our lives. In order to go anywhere such as work, school or even just to the grocery store, we have to drive. The average american drives about 30 miles per day, which adds up to multiple hours behind the wheel each week. With all that time spent in the car, it has to get messy and unorganized eventually. We’re here to share a few helpful tips on how to clean and organize your vehicle because it’s somewhere you spend a lot of time whether you realize it or not.
