Gauteng notes on towing equipment & supplies
Gauteng has many tow bar fitment centres and trailer dealers, clustered along Beyers Naude Drive, the Kempton Park and Boksburg motor strips and Pretoria west. Detachable tow bars are popular on double-cab bakkies and SUVs that pull boats and caravans to the coast. Tow operators buying rollbacks, wheel-lift units and recovery winches will find used tow trucks for sale in Germiston, Alrode and Rosslyn. Ask for the tow bar rating and the coupling size in writing.
What breaks down and moves in Gauteng
Gauteng packs more cars, trucks and minibus taxis onto its roads than any other province, so tow trucks are always busy. The N1 Ben Schoeman Highway between Johannesburg and Pretoria, the N3 through Ekurhuleni, the N12, the N14 to Krugersdorp, the R21 to O.R. Tambo and the Johannesburg ring road all carry heavy commuter traffic, and rush hour breakdowns and fender benders are daily events. Industrial areas such as Germiston, Wadeville, Kya Sand and Rosslyn keep truck and heavy recovery crews busy. Summer afternoon storms, hail and flooding in low spots make roads slippery, while winter mornings are often hazy with smoke. Dealers move stock on flatbeds, and families fit tow bars for caravans heading to the coast.
