A toothbrush storage apparatus with an inner chamber accessible through a hinged and latched top, with toothbrushes being stored in an upright orientation inside the chamber. An electrically driven, vacuum producing air displacement mechanism is connected through a gating valve to the chamber to thereby produce a vacuum-sealed condition inside the inner chamber. This vacuum-sealed condition results in a secure and sanitary environment for storage of the toothbrushes. A visual indicator can also be included on the outside of the device to show the resulting relative state of the vacuum inside the chamber. This will allow a user to activate the air displacement mechanism via an external switch for a period sufficient to generate the desired vacuum seal.
