Towing equipment & supplies in Mpumalanga: local notes
Mpumalanga buyers ask for heavy-duty tow bars on bakkies that pull horse boxes, boat trailers and farm trailers around Ermelo, Lydenburg and White River. Trailer dealers and fitment centres work from eMalahleni, Middelburg and Mbombela. Electric winches and recovery straps sell well to 4x4 owners exploring the escarpment near Sabie and Pilgrim's Rest. Operators on the coal routes also look for heavy wreckers and underlift units for sale.
Towing in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga carries two very different kinds of traffic. On the Highveld, coal trucks and fuel tankers grind along the N4, N11 and N12 around eMalahleni, Middelburg and Secunda, and roads such as the R35 and R38 can be rough, so truck breakdowns and heavy recovery are a large part of the work. East of Belfast the N4 drops down to Mbombela and the Lowveld, and holiday traffic heads to Kruger, Hazyview and the Panorama Route with caravans, boats on trailers and 4x4s. Mist on the escarpment around Dullstroom and Graskop, Lowveld heat and summer storms all affect the roads. Farmers move citrus, timber and machinery, and many visitors need a tow far from the nearest town.
The requests we see from Mpumalanga usually come from:

- Motorists and families: a detachable bar on the family car for a weekend trailer or bike rack
- Caravan, boat and bike owners: a 13 pin bar for a caravan, boat or off-road camper trailer
