Abstract

The mop has a mop handle with a mop head at one end and a handle grip at the other end. Intermediate the mop head and the handle grip is a container holder and a container. The container is held in the container holder with the dispensing end of the container facing downward to the floor. Depending on the orientation of the container holder on the mop handle the liquid in the container can be dispensed “for” or “aft” of the mop head. Further, the container can be removed from the mop handle and the liquid dispensed onto the floor. The liquid is dispensed from the container by squeezing the container.
