Got a bunch of old stuff you want to sell my junk in Singapore? Hold up. Not everything is worth your time. Some items will make you decent money, others will waste weeks for $20. Here's the honest breakdown of what sells and what doesn't.

Working Electronics: Phones ($50-500), laptops ($100-800), gaming stuff ($100-400)

Kitchen Appliances: Rice cookers ($30-150), coffee machines ($50-300), air fryers ($40-120)

Broken Stuff: Anything that needs fixing, missing parts, or doesn't work properly

Cheap Items: Basic IKEA furniture, old textiles, plastic storage boxes, random household junk

Very Old Electronics: Anything over 5 years old usually isn't worth the hassle


Where to Actually Sell Your Junk

Best for: Everything with decent value

Best for: Furniture, Piano Removal & Disposal and local sales

Reality: Better for bigger items since people can see who they're buying from. Less scammy than Carousell.

The Time Reality Check For Selling Junk

Selling each item takes about 3-5 hours total (photos, posting, messages, meetups, dealing with no-shows). If you're selling something for $50, you're working for $10-17 per hour. Worth it?


Sometimes professional removal is smarter:

  • Multiple cheap items that might sell for $20-50 each

  • Broken stuff nobody wants

  • You're moving soon and don't have time

  • Heavy furniture that's hard to move

  • Your time is worth more than the hassle


If You Do Sell The Junk - Keep It Simple

Price right from the start: Check what similar items actually sold for (not asking prices). Price at 20-40% of retail.

Bundle stuff: Sell kitchen items together, office furniture as a set. Easier for buyers.

Be honest: Mention flaws upfront. Saves everyone time.

Set firm times: Don't be available 24/7. Pick specific windows for viewings.

Best strategy: Sell the good stuff, dispose of the rest professionally, get your space back.

A: Working electronics (phones, laptops, gaming consoles), good quality furniture from known brands, functional kitchen appliances, exercise equipment, and genuine collectibles sell best. Items need to be in decent condition and priced realistically.


Carousell has the largest audience but lots of lowballers. Facebook Marketplace works well for furniture and local sales. Cash Converters offers instant cash for electronics and branded items. For bulk or unsellable items, professional disposal services like Junk Value provide affordable removal.


Expect 20-40% of retail value for items in good condition. Working phones: $50-500, quality furniture: $50-400, appliances: $30-200. Brand, age and condition significantly affect prices.

Broken or very old items usually aren't worth selling.


Usually not. Items worth less than $100 often take 3-5 hours to sell (photos, listings, inquiries, coordination). Factor in your time value – professional disposal might cost about the same and save significant hassle.


Skip selling broken items, very old electronics, basic IKEA furniture unless nearly new, items missing parts, cheap plastic goods, and anything requiring repairs. These items rarely sell for enough to justify the time investment.


Choose professional removal for multiple low-value items, broken appliances, bulky furniture, when you're moving soon, or when your time is more valuable than the potential selling price. It's often more cost-effective for bulk clearances.
