Types of Commercial Cleaning Buckets Available

Available in various sizes and designs, we offer a range of mop buckets to suit everything from window cleaning to everyday mopping.

DuraClean Window Cleaners Bucket (12L & 18L)

These lightweight window cleaning buckets are shaped to fit window squeegees—up to 500mm for the 18L version and up to 350mm for the 12L. Their chemical-resistant build holds up to strong cleaning solutions without wearing down, making them a reliable pick for ongoing jobs. They also pair nicely with our floor squeegees, offering a reliable system to keep floors and windows spotless.

DuraClean Super Bucket (12L)

When durability is non-negotiable, the DuraClean Super Bucket steps in and does the job. Designed with industrial strength and a sturdy, easy-grip handle, it also features a pour lip and base grip for better control when transferring liquids, helping to avoid spills and mess. It’s a dependable partner for bigger tools like floorpads, where sturdy support is a must.

General Purpose Bucket (9L)

Perfect for day-to-day tasks, this multi-purpose bucket covers all the basics. It’s fitted with a handy pouring spout for cleaner liquid transfer and an ergonomic handle that feels comfortable even when the bucket is full. It’s handy for mopping jobs and setting up caution signs to keep work areas safer.

Squeeze Mop Bucket (9L)

Compact but practical, this 9L multi-purpose bucket is a great match for mopping jobs where convenience matters. The easy-pour spout and comfort handle design help make it easier to manage heavy loads without causing fatigue. It’s a natural match for sponge mops, helping to speed up everyday maintenance tasks.

DuraClean Flat Mop Window Bucket (18L)

Ideal for window cleaning and flat mopping, this extra-wide bucket is chemical resistant and made for regular commercial use. With an ergonomic handle and colour-coding options to reduce cross-contamination risks, it’s built for safer cleaning in busy work areas. It works well alongside flatmop systems, making it easier to prep and clean larger spaces.

Tips for Selecting the Right Mop Bucket

Finding the right general purpose bucket that fits your space makes everyday cleaning much easier and safer, especially in busy commercial settings. Here are some tips that can help:

• Pick the right size for the task: Think about how much liquid your cleaning crew will need to carry or use at a time. A smaller 9L bucket might suit quick cleanups, while a larger 18L option helps cover bigger areas without constant refilling.

• Check the material used: Durability matters, especially when buckets are used with strong cleaning solutions. Look for chemical-resistant plastics or heavy-duty builds that can handle daily use without cracking.

• Match the bucket to the job: Some buckets are better suited for specific tasks. For example, buckets shaped for squeegees or flatmop systems can speed up window cleaning or floor care.

• Look for practical features: Details like pour spouts, base grips, and built-in wringers make it easier to pour, lift, and wring without making a mess or straining your hands.
