Singaporeans love IKEA. From the MALM bedframes to the BILLY bookcases, IKEA furniture is popular because it’s affordable, functional and blends easily into any home. Over the years, it has become a staple in Singapore households.
But when it’s time to move, refresh your space, or remove worn-out pieces, many homeowners suddenly face a familiar challenge:
With strict HDB and NEA rules on bulky waste, leaving furniture at corridors or void decks is considered illegal dumping — and fines can go up to $2,000. That’s when many residents turn to junk removal services to help clear bulky items safely.
Flat-pack furniture is designed for convenience, but repeated dismantling and reassembly can be difficult. After years of usage, some components may loosen or wear naturally, making them harder to reuse or resell.
Many IKEA items — such as wardrobes, bedframes, and bookshelves — are large once assembled. These pieces often:
Don’t fit in standard lifts
Are too large for disposal chutes
Require dismantling to move through doorways
Most estates prohibit leaving bulky furniture in common areas. Booking bulk-item disposal may require advance notice, which doesn’t help during urgent situations such as:
Handover deadlines
Renovations
Last-minute moving dates
While many preloved IKEA pieces are still usable, not every buyer wants to deal with dismantling or self-collection. This leads many homeowners to choose quick, professional disposal instead.
Town Councils provide free removal of up to three bulky items per month for HDB residents.
However:
Slots may be limited
Advance booking is required
They cannot handle dismantling
Commercial or rental units are not eligible
IKEA Singapore offers recycling stations for small household recyclables.
Large furniture items, however, are not part of their take-back programme, so homeowners still need alternative disposal options.
Trusted disposal companies like Junk Value offer:
Full dismantling
Heavy lifting
Transport
Legal disposal at NEA-approved facilities
