steam mops and spray bottles for anyone who likes to make their own cleaning solutions. Whether it's a quick weekly tidy or a top-to-bottom spring clean, there's a simple, effective tool at Target Australia to suit the job and keep your home squeaky clean.
Mops, Spin Mops & Mop and Bucket Sets
The right mop makes a real difference on hard floors. A classic mop and bucket is a dependable all-rounder for everyday cleaning, while a spin mop takes the effort out of wringing with a simple twist of the basket. A flat mop sits lower to the ground, which helps it reach under furniture and into corners. Replacement mop heads and pads are available too, so you can refresh your setup without replacing the whole thing.
Brooms, Dustpans & Everyday Cleaning Tools
A good sweep sets you up for a proper clean before the mop comes out. Our brooms handle kitchen crumbs and outdoor dust, while a matching dustpan and brush keeps quick tidy-ups simple and stylish. You'll also find telescopic handles, squeegees and scrubbing brushes for reaching high windows, working on tiles and grout, and getting into the spots that often get missed. It's these simple everyday cleaning essentials that keeps a home feeling fresh between bigger cleans.
Cloths, Dusters & Cleaning Equipment
Reusable microfibre cloths lift dust and grime with just water which makes them a practical, low-waste option for benches, glass and more. While dusters help with hard to reach sections like shelves, blinds and skirting boards. Want to complete your cleaning set-up? Spray bottles, buckets, lint removers and odour absorbers round out the range. Together, these handy pieces of cleaning equipment cover the smaller extras that make everyday upkeep more manageable, room by room.

Cleaning FAQs
What's the difference between a spin mop and a flat mop?
It mostly comes down to how they're used. A spin mop pairs with a bucket that wrings the mop head for you with a spin mechanism which is handy for larger or messier floors. A flat mop uses a slim, swivelling head that's lighter and better for quick jobs, tight corners and getting under low furniture. Many households keep one of each mops for different tasks.
How often should you replace a mop head?
As a general guide, it's worth replacing or refreshing a mop head every few months with regular use or sooner if it starts to smell, fray or stop picking up grime well. To make your mop head last longer, wash them thoroughly between uses and let them dry fully to extend their lifespan and is an easy way to keep costs and waste down.
Are microfibre cloths really better than regular cleaning cloths?
For a lot of jobs, yes! Microfibre cloths have tiny fibres that trap dust and lift grime with just water, so you can often skip sprays altogether. They're also washable and reusable many times over, which makes them more economical in the long run. On the other hand, regular cloths still have their place for heavier messes and jobs you'd rather not put through the wash.
What's the best way to store brooms and mops so they last?
Storing brooms and mops by hanging them up is the golden rule. Standing a broom or mop on its bristles or head bends and flattens them over time, so a wall holder or hook keeps the shape and lets them air dry, which helps prevent odours. Storing them somewhere ventilated rather than a damp cupboard also keeps everything fresher between uses.
How do you get streak-free windows with a squeegee?
The trick to getting streak-free windows is technique more than muscle. Work top to bottom in slightly overlapping strokes, wiping the blade with a clean cloth after each pass so you're not dragging grime back across the glass. Cleaning on a cooler, overcast day helps too since the bright sun dries the glass too quickly and leaves those tell-tale streaks behind.
