MCST & HDB Fines for Dumped Furniture in Singapore

Illegal dumping isn't just an eyesore anymore—it’s a legal risk.

Across Singapore, HDB Town Councils and private estate MCSTs (Management Corporation Strata Title) are tightening rules and increasing surveillance against irresponsible bulky junk disposal. And yes, that includes old sofas, mattresses, fridges, and DIY renovation waste casually left near bin chutes or void decks.

So why the sudden clampdown? And what can you do instead?

Let’s break it down.

🚫 The “Just Leave It There” Mentality Is Costing Everyone

Every day, we receive photos from frustrated HDB residents and condo managers:

• Torn mattresses dumped at the lift lobby

• Fridges left beside the electrical riser

• Tables too wide to pass, blocking corridors

What may seem like a “quick fix” actually creates fire hazards, pest risks, and accessibility issues for elderly neighbours or wheelchair users.

Under the Environmental Public Health Act, improper disposal can incur fines of $200 to $2,000—or more for repeat offences.

🏢 Condo MCSTs Are Getting Stricter Too

Private developments are installing CCTVs and implementing disposal penalties in their bylaws. Most condos now require:

• Advance notice for large item removals

• Booking of lift padding slots

• Use of registered disposal vendors (no informal pickers or random karang guni allowed)

If your renovation contractor or furniture buyer leaves something behind, you could be held responsible.

🧱 HDB Town Councils Are Limiting Free Disposal Services

Contrary to popular belief, Town Council bulky item collection services are:

• Limited in number (often 3–5 items per month)

• Not guaranteed for all blocks

• Strictly non-commercial – they’ll reject renovation or office junk

Trying to add items last minute or dump them early? You risk being flagged.
