crawfish cleaning setup advice

Looking for a better setup to clean crawfish before boiling. Currently using a galvanized tub to wash them off but the difficult part is emptying the dirty water. Since I usually wash them 3-4 times its a pain to empty out the water without dumping live crawfish everywhere. Have been using my pots basket to dump them in and let the water run out, then back into the tub and repeat.
Any better setups? Thought about using an icechest but thought the small drain hole might get plugged up with debris and dirty water might not drain well.

I use ice chests every time, elevated on one end, and never have any issues.

I purchased two large tubs from Wal Mart (sorry no pics, at work). Took a 1/2" bit and drilled numerous holes in one tub. Place in other tub, add crawfish and water and lift out crawfish, dump water and repeat until water is clear. Tubs were like $8 each and by the garbage cans.

Wheel barrow. Use sack to cover end. Pour.

I use the yeti bucket. Works perfect. Too expensive for a crawfish cleaner but works great.

Ive got a cooler that perfectly fits a sack of crawfish. I have it too close to the burner one time and melted the insulation so it is my cleaning cooler now. Took the plug out of it so the drain hole is bigger. I can put a rubber stopper in there if i need to, but usually i jsut spray with a hose until the water comes out fairly clear.
