In recent years, HDB fires have made headlines in Singapore, many traced to causes like excessive clutter, unsafe battery charging, and PMD-related incidents. Whether you live in a compact HDB flat, a spacious condo, or a landed property, keeping your home free of excessive junk is not just about cleanliness — it’s about fire safety.
Cluttered homes, especially those with flammable items like old furniture, cardboard boxes, and unplugged but faulty appliances, create a perfect fuel source for fires. In the event of an emergency, excessive junk can also block escape routes and make firefighting more difficult. The best strategy is to declutter to prevent hazards.
If your living room is crammed with items you no longer use, it may be time to consider professional help such as our Residential Junk Removal Services.
Bulky wooden furniture that traps dust and accelerates burning. Bulky Items Disposal can help you clear these safely.
Old sofas and armchairs with foam padding, which burn quickly. Sofa Disposal is a fast solution.
Beds and mattresses — especially old spring mattresses that ignite easily. See our Bed Frame & Mattress Disposalservice.
Old appliances such as fridges, washers, and dryers that may have faulty wiring. We handle Fridge Disposal and Washing Machine & Dryer Disposal safely.
PMDs and e-waste — improper charging and storage of batteries can spark fires. Our White Goods & E-Waste Disposal is designed to keep you safe.
While HDB units are often highlighted, clutter and unsafe storage are equally dangerous in condos and landed properties. In condos, overcrowded store rooms or balconies can hide potential hazards. We offer dedicated Condo Junk Removal Services and Landed Property Bulky Disposal.
For landed homes, bulky items such as built-in furniture or large fish tanks may obstruct exits — our Built-In Furniture Removal and Fish Tank Disposal services help keep your home safe.

Commercial units are not exempt from fire risks. Overstocked offices, retail stores, or warehouses with unused office furniture, hospital beds, or massage chairs can be just as dangerous. Check our Commercial & Office Disposal, Hospital Beds Disposal, and Massage Chairs Disposal for safe clearance.
Every extra piece of junk in your home is one more thing that can catch fire. Whether it’s IKEA Furniture Disposal, Piano Removal, or simply doing a regular declutter, we can help.
Our Full List of Services covers everything from bulky furniture to e-waste, ensuring your home is safer, cleaner, and fire-risk-free.
