Abstract
A wide area mop is a device that is utilized to clean a large surface area such as an indoor court. The device features a rectangular mop base onto which a grommeted foldable cleaning cloth is removably attached via a plurality of fasteners and a plurality of hook fasteners. The rectangular mop base is physically dragged along behind the user via a pull cord, allowing the grommeted foldable cleaning cloth to accumulate dirt and grime. A set of circular weight plates is placed atop the grommeted foldable cleaning cloth once the grommeted foldable cleaning cloth is folded onto and secured to the rectangular mop base. The set of circular weight plates is able to provide additional weight to the rectangular mop base and the grommeted foldable cleaning cloth, allowing the device to more effectively scrub a surface.
