ABSTRACT:
A mop stabilizing structure for use in a mop bucket includes a shelf having notched portion which serves to grasp a mop handle to maintain the mop in a vertical position in the mop bucket. Preferably, the notch portion is made from a thin web-like material which forms a narrow lip along the inner periphery thereof which acts to firmly secure the mop in an upright position. The mop bucket preferably includes button-like locking mechanisms which maintain the handle in a rigid, stationary and vertical position relative to the mop bucket which, during handling and transport of the mop bucket, prevents the mop bucket from tipping. The base of the bucket also preferably includes an anti-skid surface composed of rows of raised protrusions, one row of which is aligned with the free end of the shelf to maintain the mop in an upright position during handling.
