How many do you want to clean at a time? If only a few (maybe 8 or so), a standard dishwasher for under $500 should work fine.

I have a question concerning how people go about cleaning totes in an efficient and effective manner. We have a facility that has poor air filtration, so dust is basically everywhere. Is there a machine that cleans totes such as a batch cleaner or something that is relatively cheap and has a relatively small footprint. We are looking into purchasing soft cell inserts for the totes, which will protect the CCA's and the cells will be easier to clean (wipe them out vs. washing the entire tote more frequently). I have heard of machines that are capable of cleaning totes (12" X 10" X 10") without the use of much manual labor - load them; machine cleans them, remove them; dry them... If any of you have any experience or advise on what options there are, I would appreicate it. Thank you in advance.
