The speed, effectiveness, and convenience with which pallets and other objects are cleaned can be increased by using a vehicle-towed portable pressure power-washing apparatus. The apparatus includes a platform that can be towed. On the platform is positioned at least one pressure-washer that pumps liquid from a tank into rotary arms within a cleaning chamber positioned on the platform, causing the rotation of the arms as the arms eject streams of the liquid pumped under a high pressure from angled nozzles. Belt conveyors carry an object in need of cleaning into the cleaning chamber, first exposing the object to the streams of the liquid, and then to a drying chamber. Guide rails positioned on the platform guide the object during cleaning, with the shape of one of the guide rails causing the object to fall off the platform following the drying to remove excess liquid left on the object.
