ABSTRACT:
A self-contained, trailer-mounted, portable wash and paint facility particularly useful to retrieve a grease disposal container having a removable lid, wash dirt and grease from the container, repaint the container, and return it to service. The facility contains an extendable boom and winch to handle the container and bring it into the facility. A vat agitated with compressed air is provided containing a heated caustic solution wherein lids are soaked as part of the cleaning process. A trolley mounted winch is provided which assists in removing the container lid and moving it to and from the soaking vat. A circulating high pressure wash system is provided for high pressure spraying of heated soapy cleaning solution. The cleaning system has a high-pressure washer and tank with a delivery hose and nozzle for the operator to employ when washing the grease container. The floor of the facility contains a grate where used cleaning solution is collected in a catch tank. The catch tank features a screen basket for catching large debris, and an upper and lower compartment. The upper compartment has a skimmer for removing grease and oil from the solution, and skimmer tubes allow solution to flow to a lower compartment where silt settles and solution is collected. The solution from the catch tank is recycled through a three stage filter to the washer.
