Abstract: The toilet cleaning apparatus provides for hinged fit to an existing toilet with rim. The seat of the apparatus has a top, a bottom, and a cavity therebetween. The motor with pulleys and belt is disposed within the cavity. A movable cleaning pad disposed outside of the cavity between the seat bottom and toilet rim is attached to the motor via the drive attachment. The apparatus provides an electric power source in communication with the motor and the seat lift and lowering pivot drive, and a pair of pedals for controlling the power source whereby the seat is selectively lifted and lowered and the seat bottom and rim are selectively wiped by the cleaning pad, with the seat in the down position.
