A combined dustpan and residual dust collecting device comprising:
- a dustpan having a collection bin and a handle;
- means for removing residual dust from a surface during sweeping, wherein said means for removing residual dust is associated with said dustpan.
A combined dustpan and residual dust collecting device comprising:
- a dustpan having a collection bin and a handle;
- one or more dusting heads strategically positioned on said dustpan;
- a dust cover removably attached to said dusting head, said dust cover capable of collecting and retaining residual dust and material debris from a surface as said dusting head and said dusting cover is brought into contact with said residual dust and material debris.
A combined dustpan and residual dust collecting device comprising:
- a dustpan having a collection bin and a handle;
- and
- one or more dusting heads strategically positioned on said dustpan, said dusting head capable of collecting and retaining residual dust and material debris from a surface as said dusting head is brought into contact with said residual dust and material debris.
A method for removing residual dust from a surface to achieve more thorough cleaning of said surface, said method comprising the steps of:
- obtaining a dustpan having a dust collection bin and one or more means for removing residual dust;
- sweeping material and other debris from a surface into said dust collection bin;
- bringing said means for removing residual dust into contact with any residual dust remaining after said step of sweeping, and manipulating said means for removing residual dust across said surface and said residual dust in order to lift and retain, thus sufficiently removing, said residual dust from said surface.
