Fish Tank With Sump Disposed From a Singapore HDB Home By Junk Value

Why Junking Old Fish Tanks Are Not Simple

Unlike normal household items, fish tanks come with unique challenges:

• Thick glass panels that can shatter easily

• Residual water, sand, or gravel adding extra weight

• Sharp edges once cracked or broken

• Too bulky for refuse chutes or normal bins

Leaving a tank at common areas or dumping it illegally can result in fines and complaints.

That’s why many residents choose a professional aquarium disposal service in Singapore instead of attempting DIY removal.

How to Junk An Old Fish Tank in Singapore

1. DIY Disposal

Fish tanks are fragile and heavy. Carrying them without proper equipment increases the risk of injury, broken glass and property damage.

2. Town Council or Waste Collection

It's always recommended that you check directly with the local town council on rules and regulations.

Private disposal services are available as alternative, if required.

3. Professional Fish Tank Junk Removal

Engaging Junk Value Recycling ensures:

• Safe lifting and handling of heavy glass tanks

• Proper packing to prevent breakage

• Legal and NEA-compliant disposal

• Quick and stress-free removal

FAQs - Fish Tank Junk Removal

Q1: Can I throw my old fish tank in the regular trash in Singapore?

No. Fish tanks are considered bulky items and glass, which require proper disposal. Leaving them at void decks or bin centres is illegal and may result in fines. Use a registered disposal service instead.

Q2: How much does it cost to dispose of a fish tank in Singapore?

Costs depend on the tank size, whether it has a stand, and access conditions (stairs, lifts). Most professional junk removal services provide an upfront quote.

Q3: Can Junk Value remove a fish tank from my HDB or condo?

Yes. Junk Value offers safe fish tank removal for HDBs, condominiums, landed homes, and commercial properties, handling both the tank and stand if included.

Q4: Do I need to empty the water and clean the tank before disposal?

Yes. Remove all water, fish, plants, and substrates. Professional teams will handle the safe removal of the empty tank, but the contents should be cleared beforehand.

Yes. Registered disposal services recycle the glass and other materials responsibly, ensuring minimal environmental impact and compliance with Singapore’s e-waste regulations.
