If you’re wondering how to sell your old TV in Singapore, you’re not alone. From bulky CRTs to modern flat-screens, many Singaporeans struggle to find the right buyer or a safe disposal method. Whether you want to resell, recycle, or dispose, knowing your options can save time, effort, and money.

Even if your TV still works, resale isn’t always straightforward:
Depreciation: Electronics lose value fast. TVs older than 5–7 years rarely fetch a good price.
Condition: Broken screens, dead pixels, or faulty electronics deter buyers.
Transport Hassle: Moving a large TV, especially a CRT or 70"+ flat-screen, is cumbersome.
Limited Demand: Buyers prefer newer, energy-efficient models, leaving older TVs with few resale options.
Because of these factors, many owners end up opting for disposal, which is where professional services like Junk Value Recycling become invaluable.
Here’s a rundown of your main avenues for selling your old TV in Singapore:
Pros: Reach local buyers quickly; no intermediaries.
Cons: Negotiation and lowball offers are common.
Tips:
Include clear photos of your TV from multiple angles.
Specify model, screen size, and condition.
Highlight accessories included (remote, cables, stand).
Even if your TV isn’t sold immediately, listing it increases your chances of finding a buyer before considering professional disposal.
Some retailers and online platforms offer trade-in programs for electronics:
Example: Reebelo allows you to sell used electronics, including TVs, in exchange for cash or store credit.
Pros: Quick and simple process; postage sometimes included.
Cons: Often limited to newer, working models.
If your TV is older or slightly damaged, trade-ins may not accept it — in which case, disposal is a better alternative.
Local shops sometimes purchase used electronics for resale or parts:
Check shops like RisingStar Service Centre or independent second-hand electronics stores.
Pros: You get immediate cash; no need to handle buyer logistics.
Cons: They often reject older or faulty TVs.
Offer your TV to friends, family, or community Facebook groups.
This can work for small or slightly older TVs that are still functional.
Pros: Simple and often free removal.
Cons: Limited audience; may take time to find someone interested.
If resale isn’t viable, proper recycling is essential to prevent environmental damage.
The National Environment Agency has drop-off points for electronic waste:
Large TVs may need prior arrangement.
Always check operating hours and accepted items before dropping off.
Occasionally, NEA and private companies run e-waste collection drives:
Keep an eye on official NEA announcements or local community pages.
Great for responsibly disposing multiple devices at once.
When other options fail, Junk Value Recycling is your trusted solution:

Eco-Friendly Disposal: We recycle parts where possible, reducing environmental impact.
Fast & Convenient: Same-week collection and hassle-free service.
