The Singapore Civil Defence Force said it received a call for assistance at about 6pm, and extinguished the fire using two water jets.
The blaze involved contents of the storage shed, it added.
No injuries were reported.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
According to Mr Koh Poh Koon, MP for the area, a resident who lives across the street rushed over to help contain the fire before the SCDF team arrived.
