A dustpan with handle combination is described which includes a slider plate apposed to a front surface of the handle. Slits through which stoppers are connected to the handle are provided to limit the range of movement of the slider plate. When the slider plate is extended downwards to a first position in use, the slider plate and handle lock against the back plate, below the rectangular block, at an obtuse angle for sweeping dirt. When the slider plate is retracted upwards to a second position, the dustpan rotates downwards with respect to the handle to a reflex angle ergonomically preferable for emptying dirt. When the slider plate is retracted upwards with the dustpan resting on a surface and the handle rotated forwards around the connecting means, the handle locks against the back plate at a convenient resting angle. When the slider plate is retracted upwards during non-use, the dustpan will rotate to align with the handle when laid flat or hung for space-saving during storage.

A device for aiding in cleaning a corrugated surface includes a container and a plurality of teeth is disclosed. The container includes a bottom portion, an upper portion, and a pair of opposing side walls defining an opening configured to receive materials therein. The bottom portion includes a plurality of slot. Each of the plurality of teeth are coupled to and extend from first ends of corresponding ones of the plurality of slots and are configured to be at least partially disposed within corresponding grooves of the corrugated surface to aid in causing materials to be received within the opening of the container.

A vacuum cleaner includes a body movable over a surface to be cleaner, a suction source positioned in the body, and a suction port in fluid communication with the suction source. The body includes a plurality of feet. A dustpan attachment is removably coupled to the body. The dustpan attachment includes a housing having a recess and a vacuum port fluidly coupled to the suction port, and a pair of flanges extending from the housing. Each flange is removably coupled to a respective one of the plurality of feet. When each of the pair of flanges is coupled to a respective one of the plurality of feet, the recess cooperates with the surface to form a suction channel having a suction inlet formed in a front of the housing and opening forwardly, wherein the suction inlet is in fluid communication with the suction port.
