ABSTRACT:
Reusable containers such as totes for paint, chemicals and the like are cleaned to exacting standards by apparatus which includes a spray booth and at least an internal spray head. The spray head is moved along a vertical axis to a plurality of different positions within the tote. In addition, the spray head is tiltable about a horizontal axis. In such manner, the spray head can be tilted so that its nozzles are brought very close to the side walls of the container to thereby concentrate the spray of solvent thereon to remove paint residue and the like. An external spray head is also provided for cleaning the external sides of the container while it is being rotated relative to both internal and external spray heads.
