Roadside, recovery & transport in Brits: local notes

Farmers along the Crocodile River and near Mooinooi ask for recovery when tractors or bakkies get stuck after summer rain. Weekend breakdowns on the busy R511 around the Hartbeespoort Dam wall often need a quick roadside fix or a tow. Factories in the industrial area book lowbeds for machinery. Car trailer hire is used for moving cars to Pretoria. Ask the operator for the price per kilometre before the tow.

Towing in Brits

Brits is a manufacturing and farming town on the N4 Platinum Highway between Pretoria and Rustenburg, with factories in the industrial area and irrigation farms along the Crocodile River. Its roads carry trucks to the platinum mines, commuter traffic to Pretoria and holiday traffic to Hartbeespoort Dam. Tow requests come from motorists stuck on the N4 and the R511, from farmers whose tractors and bakkies break down on gravel roads, and from boat and caravan owners heading to the dam on weekends. Busy roads around Schoemansville and the dam wall can be slow. Summer brings thunderstorms and hail, and winter mornings can be very cold, with frost and mist in the river valleys.
