Abstract: The present invention is a device and system for cleaning and washing containers, including open containers such as carts or tanks, and closed containers such as casks and drums, for virtually any industry. The device is used in combination with any hot water pressure washer. The container washing device and system according to the invention is able to wash a container in under one minute using less than 3.2 gallons of water. The containers are loaded in a horizontal position onto a platform or portable table while maintaining a low profile. A wash head driver by a power head translates in and out of the cart to bring a turbo nozzle in close proximity with all interior cart surfaces. Advantageously a gear train in the wash head has a tooth ratio that produces a non-repeating path for the wash head which rotates the turbo nozzle in two different planes, while reciprocating linearly in and out of the container.
