Several intermediate bulk containers (11) are mounted on a trailer (10) by placing the IBCs on adjustable platforms (19). Flexible drain conduits (65) are connected to the bottom drain outlets of each IBC, and a high velocity spinner assembly (45) which is connected to a lid (41) is mounted to the upper manhole opening of each IBC, with the rotary nozzle (46) suspended inside the chamber (38) of the IBC. The loaded trailer vehicle is moved into the bay of a trailer tank cleaning facility, and the high pressure detergent supply of the facility is connected to the central supply conduit (66) of the trailer and its drain conduit is connected to the discharge conduit (68) of the trailer, so that the supply and drain system of the cleaning facility is utilized to clean the IBCs mounted on the trailer vehicle.
