12 JUNE 2026 – The household refuse collection fees under the public waste collection scheme will be adjusted from 1 July 2026.
2. For HDB flats and non-landed private housing, the monthly fee will increase by $0.44 from $10.20 to $10.64, while landed homes will see an increase of $1.50 from $34.00 to $35.50 (both inclusive of 9% GST). The revised fees ensure that Singapore’s overall waste management system can operate sustainably. This is part of regular review of refuse collection fees to reflect rising operational and manpower costs faced by Public Waste Collectors (PWCs). The last revision was made in 2024.

3. The household refuse collection fee for HDB flats can be offset by the U-Save rebates disbursed as part of the permanent GST Voucher scheme. U-Save rebates for FY2026 are disbursed in April, July, October this year and in January 2027. It is credited directly into eligible households’ utilities accounts with SP Services, helping eligible households cope with their utilities expenses1, including the refuse collection fee.
