Disposing of religious artefacts such as altars, prayer tables, statues, incense burners, or other sacred items in Singapore requires more care than ordinary junk removal. For many families, these items hold deep spiritual and cultural meaning. Leaving them at the void deck or bin centre is not only illegal dumping but also considered disrespectful.
At Fast Paid Disposal SG, we provide safe, legal, and respectful disposal services for religious artefacts and altars. Our trained team handles each item with care, offering same day disposal, large items removal, and eco-friendly home waste management solutions across Singapore.

Legal Restrictions
Dumping in common spaces like corridors, bin centres, or void decks can result in fines of up to $10,000.

Customer Story
A family in Macpherson needed to dispose of their late grandmother’s large wooden altar before renovating their HDB flat. The town council did not accept it, and movers refused due to its size.
They engaged Fast Paid Disposal SG, and our crew respectfully dismantled the altar, transported it safely, and disposed of it the same day. The family appreciated the professionalism and care given to an item of great spiritual value.
