Why Disposal of Old Curtains, Carpets and Rugs is a Problem

These household items seem harmless, but:

• They trap dust, mites, and mould

• They can’t be donated if stained, torn or musty

• They’re not recyclable via blue recycling bins due to mixed materials (fabric, rubber, lining)

If your items are still in good condition, you can try donating them through online platforms like Carousell

Can Old Curtains, Carpets and Rugs Be Sold or Reused?

Let’s be honest—most used curtains and rugs have no resale value, unless:

• They’re unused and still in packaging

• You’re selling designer curtains (Muji, IKEA, Spotlight, etc.)

• They’re clean, matching sets with accessories (rods, tiebacks)

Even then, most buyers in Singapore prefer new items for hygiene reasons. If it’s been on your window or floor, assume it’s junk unless it’s spotless.
