Got an old TV that's fizzled out? You’re not alone. In Singapore, it can be surprisingly tricky to get rid of a broken television — and many homeowners are caught off guard when they find out it’s not free.
Let’s break it down:
A broken TV is considered e-waste, and it can't be thrown out like regular rubbish or bulky furniture. Here’s what you should know:
Town Councils DO NOT collect electronics like TVs, speakers, or monitors under free bulky item collection schemes.
Illegal dumping at the void deck or bin centre can cost you up to $2,000 in fines under NEA regulations.
TVs contain hazardous components, so safe recycling is a must.
1. Manufacturer Take-Back
Some retailers like Courts or Gain City may offer take-back services, but only if you're buying a new TV.
2. E-Waste Bins
There are limited drop-off bins around Singapore for small electronics — but they don’t accept large bulky items like TVs.
That’s where Junk Value comes in.
✅ We collect broken TVs from HDBs, condos, and landed homes
✅ We send all items to licensed recycling facilities
✅ Our crew is trained, reliable, and always shows up as promised
🔗 Learn more about our e-waste services
We’ve seen it too often. Some companies run ads promising "free disposal" — only to ghost you last minute, cancel without warning, or show up and charge more than a normal disposal service.
Think about it:
Who pays for the truck, manpower, diesel?
Why would anyone buy your broken TV?
How can a business survive giving out free services?
It doesn’t add up. And too many Singaporeans have been left stuck at the last minute.
Junk Value is NOT affiliated with any free disposal company or scam ad. We do not buy broken TVs or pretend we can haul for free.
We provide a clear price upfront — no ghosting, no funny business, no hidden fees.
