utility sink

Garage washing basin

A utility sink is a large, deep basin designed for heavy-duty tasks like washing mops, soaking stained clothing, or cleaning paint brushes.

Typically found in laundry rooms, garages, or basements rather than kitchens or bathrooms, utility sinks are built to handle messy work you wouldn't want in your main fixtures: She rinsed the muddy boots in the utility sink.
