Abstract
A system and method for cleaning a cart wheel includes an elongated body having a central channel having an entry end and an exit end. A shuttle slidably engages the elongated body and is engageable by a wheel entering the central channel from the entry end such that the wheel pushes the shuttle along the central channel and disengages the shuttle adjacent the exit end, wherein a sliding engagement between the wheel and the shuttle cleans the wheel.
