Dustpan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A dustpan is a cleaning utensil, commonly used in combination with a broom. The dustpan may appear to be a type of flat scoop. It is often handheld for home use, but industrial and commercial enterprises often use a hinged variety on the end of a stick to prevent the user from constantly stooping to use it.

Handheld dustpans may be used with either a full-size broom or with a smaller whisk broom or brush sometimes called a duster. This second combination may be sold as one unit.
