What is the correct way to stop and remove a docker container in Jenkins when using the Docker Pipeline Plugin?

Question

I have a conveyor Jenkins, who builds and runs Docker car, and not as an agent but uses a script block with methods Docker Pipeline Plugin docker.build()and Image.run(). This works fine, but if the build failed, the docker container is left on! Currently I have Container.stop()a block post{ always{} }, but it does not work. I do not want ssh on my Jenkins server to delete the container after each build, and I cannot just leave it because it has a specific and necessary name. How to stop and rm container regardless of build failure?

My conveyor:

pipeline {
    agent none
    stages {
        stage('Checkout') {
            agent any
            steps {
                checkout([$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[credentialsId: '<some credentials>', url: '<a git repo>']]])
            }
        }
        stage('Spin Up Receiver') {
            agent any
            steps {
                script { 
                    def receiver = docker.build("receiver",  "--rm centos7_receiver")
                    def receiver_container = receiver.run("-d -v ${PWD}/realtime_files/station_name/201707/f/20170710_191:/DSK1/SSN/LOG0_f/17001 --network='rsync_test' --name='test_receiver'")
                }
            }
        }
        stage('Run Tests') {
            agent { dockerfile { args '-v /etc/passwd:/etc/passwd --network="rsync_test"' } }
            steps {
                sh "python ./rsyncUnitTests.py"
            }
        }
    }
    post {
        always {
            script { 
                receiver_container.stop()
            }
        }
        failure {
            sendEmail('[e-mail]')
        }
        changed {
            sendEmail('[e-mail]')
        }
    }
}

. . . , post{ always{ } }.

def receiver_container
pipeline {
    agent any
    stages {
        stage('Checkout') {
            agent any
            steps {
                checkout([$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: '*/master']], doGenerateSubmoduleConfigurations: false, extensions: [], submoduleCfg: [], userRemoteConfigs: [[credentialsId: '<some credentials>', url: '<a git repo>']]])
            }
        }
        stage('Spin Up Receiver') {
            agent any
            steps {
                script { 
                    def receiver = docker.build("receiver",  "--rm receiver_docker")
                    receiver_container = receiver.run("-d -u 0:0 -v /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/RsyncRealtime/jenkins_rt:/DSK1/SSN/LOG5_F/17191 --network='rsync_test' --name='test_receiver'")
                }
            }
        }
        stage('Run Unit Tests') {
            agent { 
                dockerfile { 
                    args '-u 0:0 -v /etc/passwd:/etc/passwd --network="rsync_test"'
                } 
            }
            steps {
                sh "sshpass -p 'test' ssh anonymous@test_receiver ls -l /DSK1/SSN/LOG5_F/17191"
                sh "python ./rsyncUnitTests.py"
            }
        }
    }
    post {
        always {
            script { 
                receiver_container.stop()
            }
        }
        failure {
            sendEmail('[e-mail]')
        }
        changed {
            sendEmail('[e-mail]')
        }
    }
