MOVING OUT OF YOUR HDB FLAT? HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

If you’re planning to move out of your HDB flat, there’s more to it than just packing boxes. From lift booking to disposal arrangements, being well-prepared can save you stress, time, and money.

Here’s a complete guide from our experienced Singapore movers to make your HDB move smooth and hassle-free.


📆 1. Inform Your Town Council or Condo Management (If Applicable)

For certain HDB areas (especially those with newer developments), you may need to:
✅ Notify the Town Council about your move-out date
✅ Reserve lift padding or service lift access if required

💡 Pro tip: Some Town Councils provide lift protection sheets for free—check with yours!


🚛 2. Choose a Reliable Moving Company

Book your movers at least 2–3 weeks in advance, especially if you’re moving during the weekend or month-end (peak season).

A good mover should:
✅ Know how to handle tight HDB corridors
✅ Offer disassembly and reassembly services
✅ Be familiar with moving rules in different towns


🛏️ 3. Plan for Disposal of Unwanted Furniture

Need to get rid of bulky items like a bedframe or old sofa?
You have two options:

  1. HDB bulky item removal service (free or low cost, but limited to 3–5 items)

  2. Hire professional disposal movers for same-day removal, with no item limits

We offer both moving and disposal services—ask us how!


📦 4. Declutter Before Packing

Don’t bring unnecessary clutter into your new home.
🔄 Sell or donate items you no longer need
🗑️ Dispose of damaged or unused things in advance

Less to pack = faster and cheaper move!


🔌 5. Disconnect Utilities & Update Your Address

Don’t forget to:

  • Terminate or transfer your SP Group account

  • Update your address with SingPost, banks, and government portals (like MyInfo)

  • Arrange for final meter readings if needed


📐 6. Measure Doorways & Hallways

Older HDB flats may have tight corners or stairwells.
✅ Measure your bigger items like refrigerators, beds, and wardrobes
✅ Inform movers if a lift is not available or too small

We can disassemble bulky furniture if needed.


✅ HDB Moving-Out Checklist:

✔️ Book your mover in advance
