A sanitization apparatus having ultraviolet sanitization in an enclosed container to kill bacteria and other disease carrying organisms. A horizontal or vertical sanitization unit dimensioned to fit objects of varying sizes is provided. An ultraviolet source within the sanitization unit irradiates an object with UV light which, in one embodiment generates ozone gas, thereby killing any microorganisms that might reside on the object that is being sanitized. The ultraviolet light may be installed in either the base or the cover of the sanitization unit. The base and the cover may include reflective surfaces to allow ultraviolet light to reflect and reach different angles and sides of an object that is being sanitized.
