Nakoda Transport

Our spot is Plot Number Tg/23/1/1 in J V Naga, right in Mulund West. Most people know us because we are directly opposite the Mulund Check Naka, which is basically a landmark for anyone driving through here. Being right by the check naka means there is never a quiet moment. You can hear the engines and the horns all day long, but you kind of stop noticing it after a week of working here. Nakoda Transport is mostly a lot of outdoor space where we keep the vehicles and the equipment. The ground is mostly dirt and gravel, so it gets pretty muddy when it rains, and we have to be careful where we park. We have a small cabin that serves as our office where we keep the records and the keys. It’s pretty basic inside, just a couple of chairs, a fan that squeaks, and a lot of clipboards hanging on the wall. Drivers come in and out at all hours, so there is always someone around, even late at night. We spend a lot of time on the phone or just shouting across the plot to get things organized. It’s a practical kind of job. We don’t have any fancy signs or a lobby for people to wait in. If you come by, you’ll probably find us wearing boots and covered in a bit of grease or dust. That’s just the way the work goes at this location.
