Default cleaning grease from hubs

Being a rather lazy individual and trying to minimise the ingrained oil that gets on ones hand I am looking for an easy way to clean the thick grease from the wheel hubs on my Carrier. I need to send the wheels off to be blasted but the insides are stacked full of grease and its a time consuming and filfthy job. Can anyone think of a really easy way to do this please? I have thought of using a gentle blowtorch to melt it out, or cover it with solvent and jet wash. The latter will make an enormous ammount of mess where I steam clean. Maybe its just good old fashioned hard work, but worth asking the experts!
