Many housing societies in Chembur East 400071 are old, and redevelopment is now common. Patel Storage runs storage services in Chembur East for members who must vacate while the new building is built. We collect from your door and keep goods at our Saki Naka warehouse.
Builders usually pay rent for a temporary flat, but that flat is often smaller. Storage lets you take only what you need and keep the rest safe.
Old Chembur societies and the redevelopment wave
Chembur grew around the Harbour line station, with leafy lanes and many low-rise societies from decades ago. Families have lived in the same flat for two or three generations. Those homes are full of solid wooden furniture.
As these buildings age, societies sign redevelopment deals. Every member must vacate on a fixed date, often within a month or two of the notice.
The rental flat you find may be in a different lane or a different suburb. Moving a lifetime of furniture there, and then again later, is costly and tiring.
Deciding what to store during redevelopment
Start with a room-by-room walk. Heavy pieces like a dressing table, a 3-door cupboard or a double bed are good candidates for storage. Keep only what the temporary flat truly needs.
Redevelopment can take a few years. Our per-item monthly rates make it easy to work out your yearly cost in advance. You can also bring items back one at a time if your needs change.
Talk to your neighbours. If several members of one society store with us, you can coordinate pickup dates around the vacating deadline.
Keep your society's redevelopment agreement and timeline in one file. Revisit your storage list each year as the new building takes shape.
- Long stays welcome. Goods can stay as long as dues are paid on time.
- Partial returns. Take back a single item when the rental flat needs it.
- Clear terms. Goods may be sold only after 90+ days of unpaid dues, and only after notice.

On vacating day, many members move out at once. Lifts, stairs and the gate can get crowded, so confirm your slot early with a token advance.
Older buildings may have no lift and narrow staircases. Our team dismantles beds and wardrobes where needed, wraps them, and carries them down.
Ask your society secretary for the exact vacating date before you call us. Then book with enough margin, so the builder's deadline never catches you out.
Have the temporary flat's address handy when you book. If you want a few items sent there later, we can plan that too.
- Dismantling. Beds and wardrobes are taken apart where needed and wrapped.
- Labelled parts. Screws and fittings go in marked bags with each piece.
- Item list. You check every listed item at your door.
