Towing in Alberton
Alberton sits where the N3 and the R59 meet south of Johannesburg, and much of its traffic is commuters heading to the city and trucks heading to the Vaal. The Alrode industrial area runs delivery trucks, forklifts and plant, and the R59 is busy with freight between Johannesburg and Vereeniging. Commuters travel between Katlehong, Thokoza, Brackenhurst and Meyersdal every day, and taxis are a big part of the traffic. Highveld summer storms bring hail and flash floods on low roads, and winter mornings are cold and foggy near the Natalspruit. People ask for car tows, truck recovery on the N3 and the R59, lowbeds for factory equipment and tow bars for trailers and caravans.
