Disclosed herein is a device for clearing pipe blockage. The device for clearing pipe blockage includes: pumping means (A) which can compress air by pumping and has an outlet (18) for discharging compressed air out; and an inflatable balloon (B) which is mounted at the outlet (18) and expands by air discharged through the outlet. The outlet (18) is a one-way valve. A guide member (24) is formed in a cylindrical shape to surround the outside of the inflatable balloon, guides the inflatable balloon expanding by the pumping means to move forward inside a pipe when a part of the front end of the guide member is inserted into the pipe, and is made of a flexible material. A presser which cleans the inner surface of the pipe while moving in a state where it gets in contact with the inner surface of the pipe is mounted at a front end of the inflatable balloon. Therefore, the inflatable balloon expanding by the pumping means expands to the inside of the pipe, which is blocked, to maintain an airtight state at an inlet of the pipe, so that the blocked pipe is cleared by shock pressure by movement of the pumping unit and a change in pressure by expansion of the inflatable balloon by the compressed air.
