slop sink

Janitor's deep sink

A slop sink is a deep utility sink, typically found in janitorial closets, basements, or industrial settings, used for filling mop buckets, disposing of dirty water, and other heavy-duty cleaning tasks.

Unlike kitchen or bathroom sinks, slop sinks are mounted low and built to handle debris and harsh chemicals: The custodian dumped the mop water down the slop sink.
