Fast forward to 2025, and the trade has changed. Karang Guni in 2026 focus only on items with real resale or recycling value.
Rising transport, manpower, and processing costs mean many items are no longer worth picking up.
The takeaway: not all old items are worth selling anymore. Sometimes, the faster and smarter option is professional junk removal and proper recycling — instead of waiting for a buyer who may never come.
👉 Expecting someone to carry a spoilt fridge down three flights of stairs and pay you for it isn’t realistic in 2025 — factoring in transport, driver and movers’ fees, parking, and rising diesel costs, every pickup comes with significant operating expense
Today, most furniture and appliances are made of particleboard, plastics and low-grade metals with little to no recycling value.
A cracked washer, chipped IKEA table, dead massage chair or spoilt TV doesn’t earn money — it costs money to remove and dispose of.
That’s why most Karang Guni collectors no longer take them.
Karang Guni in 2026: “I Thought It Was Free?”
Many Singaporeans still assume,
“If I give it away, someone will take it.”
Items needing stairs, dismantling, tight corridors, or disposal fees
Collectors simply can’t afford to pick up heavy, low-value junk for free anymore.
Enter Junk Value Recycling. We’re not Karang Guni, and we’re not a charity — we’re a registered junk removal team built for today’s urban realities:
Heavy lifting, dismantling, and transport

Recycling or repurposing whenever possible to reduce landfill waste
Have no resale demand in the secondhand market
