A dustpan is a cleaning tool used to collect and dispose of dust and debris. Dustpans typically feature a flat and wide surface with a raised edge to hold the dirt and debris, and a handle for easy maneuvering. Some dustpans may have a rubber lip to help collect debris more efficiently, and some are designed to be used with a broom for easy sweeping and collecting. Dustpans come in various materials, including plastic, metal, and wood, and may have additional features like a hanging hole for storage convenience.
