Navigating Mumbai's Airport
The Metro's definitely the better bet for getting to Mumbai airport, especially if you're worried about traffic. It's way less stressful than wrestling with taxis in that chaos. Just factor in extra time for getting to the station, navigating the system with luggage, and then the short taxi or auto ride from the nearest station. It's still probably quicker than driving, even on a good day. I'd check the airport's website for the closest station and the best route though, things can change. Good luck with your flight!
That's great advice! I hadn't even considered the metro. I was picturing myself stuck in a rickshaw for hours... Thanks for the tip about checking the airport website for the nearest station, I would have totally just winged it. Appreciate the good luck wishes too, I'll need them!
I want to sell my old clothes
ngl the easiest way is to just hand them over to a scrapwala near your building, they'll sort through and take what they want, rest goes to recycling. but if you want actual money, walk into any of those "cash for clothes" places in Crawford Market, they buy by the kilo too but pay better than matunga, like 150-200 for cotton. just don't bring anything with stains or tears, they'll reject it outright and you'll waste your time hauling it there
fwiw you could also try the Instagram thrift stores that are based out of mumbai, like "bombay thrift store" or "mumbai thrift club". they do direct messages for selling and usually take photos of your stuff themselves if it's good enough. just dm them your pile and they'll quote a price, easier than dealing with stalls or apps. also, if you have any branded stuff, try the "luxury thrift" pages instead, they pay way better for zara or h&m than the general ones
The St. Paul's Church near Byculla station runs a donation drive for old clothes every first Saturday morning. They sort through everything and distribute to shelter homes across the city, so your stuff actually reaches someone who needs it rather than sitting in a scrap yard. Just drop off before 11am or the volunteers pack up for the day.
