Where do you dump mop water?

How so? It’s going down the drain - then you do a quick rinse after. Probably less nasty than raw meat germs.

The toilet

Just use a swifter mop for easy use and clean up. Done.

I don’t want to make that much trash

I use a reusable microfiber cloth on the swiffer. I rinse out in the sink with hot water while mopping and wash the cloth when done. I have a spray bottle with vinegar and water that I spray on the floor. No trash, no bucket of water, rain floors. Win-win!

This seems like more work and not as good as a bucket.

People who say things are “nasty” are rarely logical about it. They just grew up in a house where people were shamed.

Huh? Sinks are also plumbing

And what debris? It's just dirt from the floor, you put worse things down the toilet and shower daily.

Oh please, don't with that ridiculous Swifter mop. That tiny thing just pushes dirt around. So unhygienic! It's for lazy folks.
At least with the old fashion mop and bucket, you can refill it with clean water after each room. There's nothing that gets the floors cleaner.

I pour our spin mop water down the laundry room sink. I suppose if I didn't have one, I'd use a toilet instead.
My mother-in-law has a Rainbow vacuum that filters using water. She has to pour her vacuum's water out down the toilet but through a strainer.

I’m the storm drain.

Splatter? Just pour slower.

Same, except I use the method Almond floor cleaner bottle and refill with whatever cleaning solution I prefer. I wash the microfiber rags. Works great!

Sinks have a strainer. Hair, muck, my mop water isn't pristine, toilets aren't magic.

On the first floor we dump into the utility sink in the mudroom. On the second floor we dump into a toilet.

Well good thing our house is vegetarian! No nasty carcass juice in our kitchen sink either.
