A housekeeping cart drawer and battery-powered charging dock for storing, charging, transporting, and deploying a robotic vacuum is disclosed. The housekeeping cart drawer and battery-powered charging dock for storing, charging, transporting, and deploying a robotic vacuum includes a deployable ramp enabling a robotic vacuum to enter and exit the trolley. The robotic vacuum ingress/egress ramp may be deployed and retracted by a foot pedal, a mechanical hand lever, or electronically. The mobile maid trolley includes an internal docking station with battery to recharge batteries of the robotic vacuum and a connection to a dust bin whereby the robotic vacuum can empty the contents of its recovery bin into a larger dust bin inside the trolley, which can be cleaned by sliding a container out the bottom. The trolley enables the robotic vacuum to have increased power from larger batteries, be fully charged all day, and removes the need for a person or staff to bend down to deploy and pick up the robot on the floor of a room.
