Is there a product made which is a cart that will hold a mop (upright) and hold a wriinger over (but not attached to) a bucket? I think it would be very convenient.
I've used a typical janitors-yellow-rolling-mop-pail-with-wringer enouigh to see that the whole design is flawed - at least for use in my residence. The bucket doesn't fit in any sink. It it is too heavy to lift conveniently when full. Filling or emptying it requires removing the wringer and, of course, the mop. These are usually wet and you have to find a place to put them temporarily. I can see that people who are able to roll the bucket out their back door, put the wringer and mop on the patio and dump the bucket out in the yard can use the design effectively, but I'm not in that situation. (Plus the wringer is designed to wring industrial sized mops and doesn't work on residential mop heads.)
I would like to have a cart that would hold an ordinary sized bucket. It would hold a wringer (hopefully a wringer for residential sized mops) above the bucket but not attached to it. It would have a holder to hold the mop upright by its handle. I hope such a product exists. If not, I must try building one.
I notice that roller type wringers for laundry are still sold. I wonder if they work for wringing small mops.
