Charging port isn't working

I am having trouble charging my Ipod 5th Generation. It's 1 or 2 years old and in fairly good condition. 2 days ago I tried to charge it but it wouldn't work. I have now tried 4 different chargers in my attempt to get it to work but it hasn't. I think that there is something wrong with the charging port itself. Is thee anyway I can clean/fix the port without having to buy a new device?

iPod touch, iOS 8.3
