Towing 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.
