Richards Bay notes on equipment & supplies
Industrial suppliers in Alton and Empangeni carry chainsaws, chains and protective gear, and hire shops there rent out chippers and stump grinders. Many smallholders and plantation contractors around Felixton run their own saws, so parts and sharpening services are easy to find. Salt air and humidity rust bars and chains quickly; clean and oil gear after each job. For tall trees in Meerensee, ask whether a cherry picker can stand on soft sandy ground.
Trees in Richards Bay
Richards Bay sits in the middle of Zululand's timber and sugar country, with eucalyptus plantations stretching inland towards Empangeni and Felixton and cane fields between them. In town, coastal bush, milkwoods, flat-crowns, palms and fast-growing exotic garden trees crowd stands in Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood. Hot, humid summers keep everything growing, and strong coastal winds sometimes push over shallow-rooted trees on sandy soil. Industrial sites near the harbour want fence lines, verges and yards kept clear, while smallholders and farmers ask for gum and bush clearing. Milkwoods and some other coastal trees are protected, and dune forest is sensitive ground, so check before clearing anything near the coast.
The requests we see from Richards Bay usually come from:
- Homeowners: a day to cut up a fallen branch or tree after a storm in the garden
- Businesses and commercial property: a one-off day to clear storm damage from a parking lot or yard
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: extra saws for a week of cutting fallen gums and winter firewood
