Bulky furniture disposal in Singapore isn’t as straightforward as many think. From bulky sofas and bed frames to fridges and wardrobes, clearing old furniture comes with strict rules, hidden costs, and plenty of logistics.
And if you’re living in a condominium, things get even trickier. MCST (Management Corporation Strata Title) rules, loading bay bookings, and lift padding requirements often catch residents off guard.
That’s why thousands of homeowners and tenants turn to Junk Value for safe, legal, and stress-free removals.
In Singapore, bulky furniture generally refers to anything that can’t fit into the bin chute or be cleared by routine collection. Common examples include:
King or queen-sized beds
Hydraulic or storage bed frames
Sofas and recliners
Wardrobes and heavy bookshelves
Fridges, washers, dryers, and ovens
Broken built-in furniture
White goods and e-waste
📌 Condo-specific tip: Even if your furniture fits into the lift, your MCST may still require prior approval. Always check before disposal.
Why Improper Disposal is a Costly Mistake
Whether you live in a condo or an HDB flat, dumping furniture in common areas is a big no-no. Risks include:
MCST or Town Council warnings and fines
Cleaning fees charged to your unit
CCTV evidence traced back to you
Damages to lifts or common property
Delays to your renovation or move-out
Some high-end developments even charge extra if you damage lifts while moving items like marble-top tables or glass furniture.
Common Disposal Mistakes in Singapore
Here’s what we see most often:
Mistake | Result |
Leaving items at bin centres or lobbies | Warnings, neighbour complaints, fines |
Hiring unlicensed disposal vendors | Risk of illegal dumping and liability |
Assuming movers will clear junk | Most movers don’t provide disposal |
Waiting until move-out day | No lift access or loading bay available |
Trying to DIY with oversized items | Personal injury, condo property damage |
