Wet Mops & Dust Mops

Floor mops are a janitorial closet or supply room essential. Learn more about the types of wet mops offered at Staples.

What Are Floor Mops?

Floor mops are cleaning tools used for deep cleaning hard floors. They use a wet mop head to efficiently wipe up spills and remove gunk and dust from hard surfaces like wood floors. They are great for cleaning tile in restrooms and cafeterias, for example.

What Are Wet Mops Used For?

Wet mops are ideal for cleaning up stains and messes that a broom or vacuum cleaner cannot remove. They allow floor cleaners and hard floor care products to be easily applied to floors and then rinsed off after cleaning. Their long handles allow easier cleaning of floors from a comfortable position.

What Are the Different Types of Cleaning Mops?

While all cleaning mops can be used for similar purposes, users can purchase mops with unique feature sets at Staples.

Standard Mops

Standard wet mops are the most common type of mop. They feature mop heads consisting of multiple strings that can apply cleaner to the floor and then be rinsed and wrung out with mop buckets and wringers.

Self-Wringing Mops

Self-wringing floor mops feature a built in wringer that can be used to wring out the mop head without causing a mess. This unique feature allows the mop to be used without a separate wringer. Enjoy more range of motion with a simple bucket or by rinsing your mop in a sink or tub without the need for a separate wringer.

Roller Mops

The roller cleaning mop features a sponge head that is clamped in place. It is highly durable and ideal for spot-scrubbing your toughest stains and spills. You’ll want to have a roller mop on hand when you need it most.

Refillable Mops

A refillable floor mop features a cleaning pad that can be removed, disposed of and replaced after each use. These mops often also include an integrated cleaner spray that allows for application of floor cleaner directly to the area being mopped. When you need a fast and easy solution for simple spills, choose a refillable wet mop.

What Refills Do Floor Mops Need?

If you’re looking for replacement parts for your floor mop, you’ve come to the right place.

Mop Pad Refills

Mop pad refills are used for refillable wet mops that utilize cleaning pads instead of a traditional mop head. These are available for a variety of surfaces depending on the intended use case.

Mop Replacement Heads

Use replacement mop heads for traditional wet mops that are too dirty or worn to be used. Roller mop heads and traditional mop heads can be easily replaced to prolong the usage of the mop and give it new life when it gets too dirty to be cleaned.
