Roadside calls on the N2 Garden Route near George and Knysna, or on the R62 near Montagu and Oudtshoorn, often involve overheating or flat batteries. Car transport between Cape Town and Gauteng is common for dealers and private buyers. Lowbeds move farm and construction equipment from Paarl and Stellenbosch. Trailer hire is easy in Bellville and Somerset West, but book early in December.
Towing in Western Cape
The Western Cape combines a busy metro with some of the country's most famous holiday routes. In Cape Town, the N1, N2 and N7 carry commuter traffic past the airport, Bellville and Montague Gardens, and breakdowns in rush hour are common. Sir Lowry's Pass on the N2 and the Huguenot Tunnel on the N1 near Paarl are well-known trouble spots. The Garden Route along the N2 through George, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay, and the R62 through the Klein Karoo, draw caravans, boats and motorbikes. Winter rain, strong summer wind, mist on the passes and Karoo heat all affect drivers. Wine farms, fruit growers and the fishing industry need trucks and trailers.
