Old furniture.
Bulky appliances.
Broken electronics.
Dump them the wrong way, and you risk NEA fines, MCST warnings, or urgent same-day removal orders. Many homeowners and businesses only realise this at the last minute — after trying to dispose of junk in bin areas, corridors, or common spaces.
Why Illegal Dumping Is a Serious Issue
Illegal dumping isn’t just roadside trash. It includes everyday mistakes like:
Leaving sofas, mattresses, or cabinets near lift lobbies or bin centres
Dumping bulky items on restricted days or outside approved hours
Using condo or office bin rooms without permission
Abandoning electronics or white goods in common areas
Consequences can include:
MCST warnings or penalties
Urgent removal orders within hours
Many customers only call a professional service after receiving a warning, needing same-day junk removal to stay compliant.
Rules Vary by Property Type
Singapore’s disposal rules differ depending on the property:
HDB Estates
Town councils may issue warnings or fines
Condos & Private Apartments
MCST approval often required
No public bin centres for bulky junk
Landed Properties
Roadside dumping is illegal
Commercial & Office Properties
Shared waste areas have strict rules
Dumping after hours or without clearance can breach contracts
Professional handling is often required for heavy or bulky electronics and furniture
Smart & Legal Ways to Remove Junk

Professional services ensure:
Perfect for residential or commercial properties.
2. Inform Property Management Early
Especially for condos and offices, you may need:
Approval for disposal
Scheduled disposal windows
3. Avoid Using Bin Centres for Bulky Items
Bin centres are designed for daily household waste, not:
Furniture
Appliances
Electronics
Renovation leftovers
Incorrect usage is one of the most common illegal dumping violations.
4. Plan In Advance or Same-Day Disposal
Many junk removal requests are last-minute due to:
Move-outs
Renovations
MCST or town council warnings
