A method for wringing fluids from a flexible container positioned within a rigid structure is based on the use of a wringing device. The wringing device includes a sup ort frame having a pair of spaced apart side supports, at least one rotatable take-up shaft extending between the pair of spaced apart side supports, and a carriage coupled to the support frame. The carriage includes a pair of spaced apart side members, a nip shaft extending between the pair of spaced apart side members, and a movable nip shaft adjacent the nip shaft and also extending between the air of spaced apart side members. The method includes passing the flexible container between the nip shaft and the movable nip shaft, and securing the flexible container to the at least one take-up shaft. The at least one take-up shaft is rotated for wrapping the flexible container therearound after having passed between the nip shaft and the moveable nip shaft so that the fluids are wringed out of the flexible container.
