Shree Samarth Transport

Shree Samarth Transport operates out of S No 136 in the Warje Malwadi area, right on S T Road. This part of Pune is always moving, and our spot is right in the middle of it. We have trucks coming in and going out at all hours of the day and night. The yard is mostly dirt and gravel, which turns into a mess when it rains, but that’s just how it is in transport. There is a small office where we keep track of the logbooks and fuel receipts. It is a lot of paperwork and phone calls to drivers who are stuck in traffic or waiting at a warehouse. We handle goods of all kinds, mostly moving stuff from one side of the city to the other or sometimes further out. The engines are loud and there is always the smell of diesel in the air. We don't have fancy uniforms or a polished lobby. It is just a place where drivers sit and have a smoke while they wait for their next load. The S T Road is always congested, so we spend a lot of time planning routes so the trucks don't get stuck for hours. The walls of the office are covered in old maps and calendars. We have a small stove in the corner for making tea, which is what keeps us going through the night shifts. It’s not a glamorous job, and the paperwork never seems to end. We just focus on getting things from point A to point B.
