You’ve probably seen it before — an online ad or message offering “free bulky item disposal”. It sounds like a dream. No cost, no hassle, right?
Wrong.
At Junk Value, we’ve had to assist countless customers who were ghosted, overcharged, or misled by these so-called “free” services. Let’s break down why “free disposal” might actually cost you more time, stress, and even cash than booking a proper, legal junk removal service in Singapore.
WhatsApp us at 9145 9514 for a no-nonsense quote — no ghosting, no gimmicks.
These operators often advertise free collection, but what they don’t tell you upfront includes:
💰 Last-minute “transport fees” and “labour charges”
📦 Cancelling if your junk isn’t worth enough to resell
⏳ Wasting your day with no-shows or vague timing
🚫 Illegally dumping furniture (you’re still liable!)
Let’s be clear: No legitimate company can send a truck, driver, fuel, and team to your home for free — unless they make that cost up somehow, usually at your expense.
What’s Really Going On Behind the Scenes?
Most “free disposal” operators are resellers in disguise. They’re only interested in cherry-picking the items they can resell in Malaysia or on Carousell.
That means if you’ve got a broken sofa, stained mattress, or dismantled wardrobe? You’ll likely get cancelled or ghosted.
If they do show up, expect:
Surprise surcharges
Complaints about stairs or access
Upselling other removal services
At Junk Value, we never bait-and-switch. We price fairly, we arrive on time, and we don't judge your junk.
Whether you're a landlord with a full flat of furniture or just tossing an old mattress, our team at Junk Value helps Singaporeans clear their homes without the drama.

Still Tempted by “Free”? Ask Yourself This First:
Who’s covering their truck fuel and staff wages?
Will they handle stairs, condos, or tight access points?
What if they ghost you?
What happens if your junk is dumped illegally?
A proper, legal junk removal company like Junk Value protects you from these risks — and saves you the frustration.
