There will always be a point in life where you’ll need to discard bulky items - like moving into a new home or office space. In Singapore, many people won’t think of disposing of bulky items until it’s time to do so. When the thought does come to mind, the headache will follow.
However, a professional bulky item disposal service will save you from potential logistical nightmares in Singapore. Aside from peace of mind, there are other benefits when employing such services. You’ll also positively impact your neighbourhood and the environment. Here is how:
Enhancing Aesthetics
The lobbies of Housing Development Board (HDB) flats are usually victims of unsightly bulk item waste. They’re either left beside rubbish bins or haphazardly placed near the rubbish dump. These bulky items can be left for days before the authorities come to remove them, leading to clutter at the void deck – quite a sight for sore eyes.
Expert bulky item disposal services can help remove unsightly items such as old furniture or appliances from streets or common areas quickly in Singapore. Think of it as an alternative cleaning service to keep your neighbourhood looking clean. It’ll help improve the area's overall aesthetics and make your HDB lobbies look more inviting for both residents and visitors.
Reduced Illegal Dumping
Aside from enhancing aesthetics, engaging bulky item disposal services can also reduce illegal dumping in Singapore. The act can carry a steep fine of SGD$50,000 or a jail term of up to 12 months in Singapore. In 2019, a moving services director was fined $9,000 for illegally dumping bulky items at Jalan Terusan. The director initially decided to save on disposal fees by dumping furniture on that street but ended up paying a fine.
By engaging professional bulky item disposal services in Singapore, you can avoid similar sticky situations and have peace of mind. You’ll also be helping to keep the environment clean and free from potentially hazardous waste.
Health and Safety Improvements
Bulky item waste can potentially be a health or safety hazard when not properly disposed of in Singapore. In January 2022, 40 firefighters were deployed to snuff out a “large fire” caused by a huge pile of bulky item waste around Pioneer. Luckily no one was hurt during the incident. Similar incidents can also happen in our residential areas or work premises.
Expert bulky item disposal services will eliminate potential safety hazards, such as sharp edges, and toxic or flammable substances. This makes the neighbourhood and environment safer for everyone, including children and pets.
Efficient Resource Recycling
When it comes to waste, the environment also comes to mind. That’s why reputable bulky item disposal services in Singapore often have their own recycling practices. This helps reduce the environmental impact of waste, contributing to Singapore’s sustainability efforts and reducing the strain and build-up of limited space on the country’s only landfill in Semakau. Currently, the Semakau landfill is projected to reach its capacity by 2035, further emphasising the importance of recycling waste.
Community Unity and Co-operation
Encouraging the use of professional disposal services fosters a sense of social responsibility. By collectively choosing eco-friendly disposal options, Singaporeans can work together to create a cleaner and more environmentally conscious society.
