A mop for cleaning a floor includes a handle for a user to grip the mop and a mop head which is interconnected with the handle. The mop head has a lower surface and an upper surface, each of which have a side to side width and a back to front length. Multiple cleaning sheets are each removably supported on the lower surface in a stacked configuration. Each of the sheets has an outerward face for cleaning and an opposed inward face. The outward face of each of the sheets is configured for contacting and cleaning the floor causing them to become soiled. When the outward face of the outermost sheet becomes soiled, that sheet may be peeled away to expose a non-soiled sheet. In some embodiments, the mop head and the handle are pivotally interconnected. In other embodiments, the multiple cleaning sheets are maintained in the stacked relationship by a releasable adhesive. In yet other embodiments, the cleaning sheets include a bibulous layer and a moisture barrier layer which is operative to prevent transport of liquid from one bibulous layer to the next. A web of cleaning material may be wrapped about the mop head so as to form an oblate roll, thereby defining the multiple cleaning sheets.
