Matunga East: a student neighbourhood
Ruia College, Podar College and VJTI are all in Matunga East, along with many schools and classes. King's Circle and the station area are full of students.
Housing here is mostly older buildings with modest flats. Many families rent a room to students, and PG rooms are shared.
That makes vacations tricky. Many landlords will not hold a room empty for two months, so students must clear out.
Students from outside Maharashtra often go home for long breaks. Paying rent for a room they will not use for two months is a waste of money.
- Shared PGs. Rooms are often shared by two or three students.
- Long breaks. Summer and Diwali breaks leave rooms empty for weeks.
- Outstation students. Many come from other states and cannot carry everything home.
How students can store smartly
Keep the list short. A mattress, a study table, a few boxes of books and a suitcase cover most student needs.
Pack books by year or subject. When you return, you only need to open the boxes for the current term.
Share the cost with a flatmate by storing a few things each. Every item is listed under the name of the person who books.
If you are moving from a hostel to a PG next term, storage saves you a double move. Things go from the old room to storage, then to the new room.
- Books. Pack heavy textbooks flat in standard boxes.
- Bedding. Wash and dry sheets before packing them into a box.
- Luggage. Spare suitcases and trolley bags can be stored too.
