Abstract: 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.
