Moving cost by property type
What it costs to move a 3-room HDB in Singapore
S$350 – S$900
Typically 10ft or 14ft, 2 to 3 movers, 3 to 5 hours. Market rates, not our prices — you pay the mover you choose.
What changes at this size
Moving a 3-room hdb
The flat type where lorry size genuinely goes either way. A lightly furnished 3-room fits a 10ft; one with a full living room, two bedrooms of furniture and a storeroom needs a 14ft, and the gap between those two quotes is real money. Most 3-room stock sits in mature estates built in the 1970s and early 1980s, so assume a small lift car until you have checked. That is the single question that decides whether your sofa rides down or gets carried down.
Floor area is typically 60 to 69 sqm, though what decides the lorry size is how much you own rather than the floor plan. A lightly furnished unit at the top of that range can need less space than a full one at the bottom.
The numbers
3-room HDB moving prices
| Job | Typical range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 3-room flat | S$350 – S$900 | Typically a 10ft or 14ft lorry with 2 to 3 movers. |
All prices shown are in Singapore dollars and exclude GST. Whether GST is charged on your move depends on whether the matched vendor is GST-registered; this is stated on the quote you receive.
What moves this number
Access, not floor area. Whether the lift takes a three-seater upright, how far the lorry can park from the lift lobby, how many flights are involved if it does not fit, and whether you are moving at month end or before Chinese New Year. Tell a vendor those four things and the quote you get will be the quote you pay.
