A vinyl chloride polymer is prepared by charging a reactor with a vinyl chloride monomer, effecting polymerization, removing a slurry of the polymer from the reactor, and washing the reactor interior with water, and repeating the series of steps. The reactor has an internal volume of at least 40 m3. A cylinder-guided lift type washer assembly having a nozzle is secured to the reactor at its top in a sealed manner such that the nozzle can be moved downward and upward in the reactor. Water is fed to the nozzle through the assembly for injecting water from the nozzle into the reactor for cleaning. The large size reactor can be effectively washed with water in the closed state, and vinyl chloride polymers of quality with least fisheyes are produced batchwise, leading to an improved productivity.
