Abstract: A clean carry apparatus provides a clean surface for use and a clean exterior after use. A storage area and base area are connected to a changing area at at least one hinge point. The base area and changing area pivot away from each other at a second hinge point to lay on a surface. The storage area pivots away from the changing area at a hinge point and rests on the base area to expose a clean changing surface. After changing, the storage area pivots back to lay flat across the changing area and contain soiled surfaces within the changing area. By lifting the clean carry apparatus, the base area and changing area pivot together, containing soiled surfaces in contact with the surface. An embodiment provides a privacy shield for changing. Another embodiment provides a foldable mat with a clean area.
