Abstract

A toilet removal and disposal tray ( 1 ) for removing and transporting an old toilet from a bathroom. The toilet removal and disposal tray has a planar base panel ( 2 ) having a perimeter edge ( 5 ) and a perimeter wall ( 6 ) extending upward a predetermined distance from the perimeter edge. The perimeter wall contains any liquids that leak from the toilet after the toilet has been uninstalled and placed on the toilet removal and disposal tray. A raised platform ( 9 ) is spaced from the perimeter wall to create an outer reservoir ( 10 ) and an inner reservoir ( 11 ) to collect water.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
Having thus described my invention, I claim: 
     
         1 . A toilet removal and disposal tray comprising:
 a base panel having a top surface, a bottom surface and a perimeter edge;   a perimeter wall extending upward a predetermined distance from the perimeter edge;   an upper edge located on the perimeter wall; and   a raised platform that is spaced from the perimeter wall to create an outer reservoir to collect water within the toilet removal and disposal tray.   
     
     
         2 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 1  further comprising:
 an inner reservoir created by the raised platform which collects water and provides a space for a center of a toilet flange and old wax ring remnants to rest, thereby allowing a base of a toilet to rest level on the raised platform. 
 
     
     
         3 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 1  further comprising:
 at least one drainage channel located on an upper surface of the raised platform to direct water into the outer reservoir and inner reservoir. 
 
     
     
         4 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 1  further comprising:
 at least one strap channel located on the bottom surface of the base panel. 
 
     
     
         5 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 1  further comprising:
 a notched reinforced edge having at least one notch and at least one projection. 
 
     
     
         6 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 1  further comprising:
 at least two bolt hole connectors located on an upper surface of the raised platform. 
 
     
     
         7 . A toilet removal and disposal tray comprising:
 a base panel having a top surface, a bottom surface and a perimeter edge;   a perimeter wall extending upward a predetermined distance from the perimeter edge;   an upper edge located on the perimeter wall;   a raised platform that is spaced from the perimeter wall to create an outer reservoir to collect water within the toilet removal and disposal tray; and   an inner reservoir created by the raised platform which collects water and provides a space for a center of a toilet flange and old wax ring remnants to rest, thereby allowing a base of a toilet to rest level on the raised platform.   
     
     
         8 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 7  further comprising:
 at least one drainage channel located on an upper surface of the raised platform to direct water into the outer reservoir and inner reservoir. 
 
     
     
         9 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 7  further comprising:
 at least one strap channel located on the bottom surface of the base panel. 
 
     
     
         10 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 7  further comprising:
 a notched reinforced edge having at least one notch and at least one projection. 
 
     
     
         11 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 7  further comprising:
 at least two bolt hole connectors located on an upper surface of the raised platform. 
 
     
     
         12 . A toilet removal and disposal tray comprising:
 a base panel having a top surface, a bottom surface and a perimeter edge;   a perimeter wall extending upward a predetermined distance from the perimeter edge;   an upper edge located on the perimeter wall;   a raised platform that is spaced from the perimeter wall to create an outer reservoir to collect water within the toilet removal and disposal tray; and   at least one drainage channel located on an upper surface of the raised platform to direct water into the outer reservoir and inner reservoir.   
     
     
         13 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 12  further comprising:
 an inner reservoir created by the raised platform which collects water and provides a space for a center of a toilet flange and old wax ring remnants to rest, thereby allowing a base of a toilet to rest level on the raised platform. 
 
     
     
         14 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 12  further comprising:
 at least one strap channel located on the bottom surface of the base panel. 
 
     
     
         15 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 12  further comprising:
 a notched reinforced edge having at least one notch and at least one projection. 
 
     
     
         16 . The toilet removal and disposal tray of  claim 12  further comprising:
 at least two bolt hole connectors located on an upper surface of the raised platform.
