Don’t Just Dump That Sofa – Know the Rules

So… you’ve finally decided that your three-seater leather recliner from 2005 has to go. It’s lumpy, peeling, smells vaguely of Milo, and takes up half your living room. You push it to the lift lobby and walk away like it’s someone else’s problem.

Sound familiar?

Well, you’re not alone — and you’re not exactly right either. Here’s the truth: bulky furniture and appliance disposal in Singapore is not as simple as dragging it to the void deck and hoping the karang guni comes by.

Let’s break it down — with a humour, insight and a clear solution

Myth #1 : “I can just leave my junk at the common area. Someone will take it.”

Maybe… juuust maybe.. you’ll get a fine from the town council and angry stares from your neighbours.

Bulky items like fridges, mattresses, and giant IKEA wardrobes don’t just disappear. Town councils provide limited, scheduled collections — and they’re not responsible for items from condos, private properties, or commercial spaces.

Myth #2: “Got free disposal services online. I’ll just call them.”

Oh yes — the infamous "free collection services" you see in Carousell or Facebook groups. Spoiler alert: They only want stuff they can resell.

The minute they realise your items are scratched, stained, or don’t have resale value?Poof. Ghosted.You’re back at square one, with a wardrobe in three pieces and no truck.
