An image forming device includes: a main body; a photosensitive body; a retaining member; an endless belt; a first cleaning member; a belt side conveying unit; a retaining member side conveying unit; and a receptacle. The retaining member retains the photosensitive body and is movable between an internal position and an external position. The endless belt contacts the photosensitive body when the retaining member is in the internal position and separates from the photosensitive body when the retaining member is in the external position. The first cleaning member is fixedly positioned and removes deposited matter on the endless belt. The belt side conveying unit is provided in the main body and conveys the deposited matter removed by the first cleaning member. The retaining member side conveying unit is provided in the retaining member and conveys the deposited matter conveyed by the belt side conveying unit to the receptacle.
