Grocery trolleys form long ‘queue’ at HDB void deck
A clip uploaded by TikTok user @nolanolawhy last Saturday (27 Sept) showed a long line of grocery trolleys at a void deck.
Nearby, a group of seniors — presumably the owners of the trolleys — were seen chatting with one another.
As with most people who watched the video, the original poster (OP) was curious about what the individuals were queuing for.
The unusual scene resembled a makeshift “queue system”, — the trolleys served as placeholders so the seniors did not have to stand in line.

Void decks in HDB estates often serve as community gathering points, where residents mingle, rest, or take part in activities.
The unique scene captured by the OP adds to the long list of quirky and interesting sightings that can only be found in Singapore’s heartlands.
Whether it’s for free groceries or another form of distribution, one thing’s clear — the creative use of trolleys is a practical solution that keeps things orderly while allowing residents to wait comfortably in line.
