Abstract: A sanitizing device for a telephone handset having a mouthpiece and an earpiece. The device has a pair of receptacles each of which has a plate that when pressed by the mouthpiece or earpiece rotates, scrubbing the outer surface of the mouthpiece and the earpiece. In a preferred form, a compartment is attached to each of the receptacles. A roll of material treated with a disinfectant is journaled in each compartment and is dispensed as sheets as the mouthpiece and the earpiece are pressed against the plates. The sheets then rotate with the plates, scrubbing the outer surface of the mouthpiece and the earpiece with disinfectant.
