Roadside, recovery & transport in Polokwane: local notes

Roadside calls in Seshego, Mankweng and Moletjie are often flat batteries, punctures and fuel problems in commuter cars and taxis. Mine and construction firms book lowbed transport for machinery to sites on the N11 and R81, so ask whether a permit and escort are needed for wide loads. Car transport to Gauteng or north towards the border is common for families who break down on holiday trips.

Towing in Polokwane

Polokwane is Limpopo's largest city and a crossroads on the N1, so towing here is busy with freight. The N1 carries trucks between Gauteng and the Beitbridge border with Zimbabwe, and its ring road around the city sees heavy traffic and breakdowns. The R71 east to Tzaneen, the N11 to Mokopane and the R81 to Giyani bring mine, farm and taxi traffic into town. Summer storms can make roads slippery, and winter mornings bring fog on the N1. Truck owners, transport firms, mine contractors, government fleets and families travelling north on holiday ask for tows, lowbeds, tow bars and trailers, and many tow trucks are based here.
