Trees in Rustenburg
Rustenburg lies at the foot of the Magaliesberg, where bushveld meets town. Indigenous thorn trees, karee, wild olive and buffalo thorn grow on the slopes and on smallholdings, while gardens in the suburbs carry jacarandas, bluegums, pepper trees and big syringas. The platinum belt around the town has brought fast building, and developers often need stands cleared. Summers are hot with afternoon thunderstorms and lightning off the mountain, and winters are dry and mild. The work asked for most is removing invaders and oversized garden trees, clearing bush on new stands, and lifting crowns off roofs. Mining companies and housing developments ask for larger jobs. Check whether indigenous trees on your land are protected first.

Typical chainsaw hire requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a day to cut up a fallen branch or tree after a storm in the garden
- Developers and building sites: cutting up small trees and brush while a site is being cleared
- Businesses and commercial property: a one-off day to clear storm damage from a parking lot or yard
