Pinetown notes on towing
Field's Hill on the M13 and the N3 climb past Cowies Hill are where heavy tows in Pinetown cluster, with trucks stuck on the incline and cars overheating in traffic. Operators in Westmead keep rollbacks for cars from Kloof and Westville and larger wreckers for trucks on the N3. Ask whether the truck can tow from a steep shoulder safely before you book a cheap light unit.
Pinetown on the road
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.
