Home Fixtures Get a Modern Twist

Furniture Renting

New-age India has learned how to live on the go. The joint-family system has been disintegrating in communities across India for a while now, as ambition has been driving singles and couples alike to traverse the country at the behest of their work. Living out of suitcases might be a fancy term for such a lifestyle, but there is now a growing trend among young India, that is letting them pack the metaphorical suitcase away for the few months they stay in a city. Furniture renting portals have been gaining solid ground in the country over the past few years, and have now become an extremely attractive fallback option for people moving cities for work or education. The system makes it possible to own bare necessities to make a brief stay comfortable, and save oneself from having to purchase unnecessary possessions.
