Towing in North West
North West mixes platinum mining, maize farming and weekend escapes from Gauteng. The N4 Platinum Highway runs from Pretoria past Brits and Rustenburg towards Zeerust and the Botswana border, and it carries ore trucks, mine buses and long distance freight. The N12 links Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp with Johannesburg, and the N14 heads west through Ventersdorp and Lichtenburg. Mine vehicles, farm bakkies and tractors on gravel roads, and weekend traffic to Hartbeespoort Dam and the Pilanesberg all add to the call outs. Summer brings hail and heavy storms, winter brings cold mornings and dust on dry roads. Long distances between towns mean many tows are charged by the kilometre, and trailers for cattle and machinery are common.
Typical winches requests in the area come from:
- Construction, mining and plant hire: winches on site vehicles for recovery on wet construction and mine roads
- Truckers, buses and logistics: a winch on a support truck to pull stuck trailers back onto firm ground
- Farmers and 4x4 owners: a winch on a farm bakkie for mud, river crossings and fence work
