Pinetown notes on towing equipment & supplies

Families in Kloof, Gillitts and Hillcrest often ask for tow bars for caravans and horse trailers, so the braked towing rating of the car matters on these hills. Fitment centres along Old Main Road and in New Germany fit bars and electrics, and trailer dealers around Westmead sell car trailers. Fleet owners in Mahogany Ridge buy straps, winches and spare tow truck parts in bulk.

What breaks down and moves in Pinetown

Pinetown sits on the N3 between Durban and the Midlands, at the foot of Field's Hill and below Cowies Hill, two climbs that test brakes and gearboxes. Fully loaded trucks heading inland grind up past Kloof, and runaway and brake failure incidents on Field's Hill have long made the M13 a careful road. The industrial parks of New Germany, Westmead and Mahogany Ridge run delivery fleets, forklifts and small trucks that need moving. Mist often settles over Kloof and Hillcrest on winter mornings, and summer storms make the steep suburban roads slick. Tow requests here come from commuters on the N3 and M13, factories in Westmead and families in Kloof who want a tow bar for a caravan or horsebox.
