What to know locally in Ladysmith
Ladysmith has hire shops and farm suppliers with chainsaws, chains and protective gear, and some can arrange a chipper or stump grinder. Bigger machines such as a truck-mounted cherry picker may come from Pietermaritzburg or Newcastle, so book early. Thorn wood and dry gum are tough on chains. For farms near Van Reenen and the Drakensberg foothills, carry spare chains, a file and a first-aid kit.
Trees in Ladysmith
Ladysmith sits on the Klip River in the hot, dry thornveld below the Drakensberg, where summers bring sudden storms and winters are cold and dry. Older parts of town have big jacarandas, syringas, pepper trees and bluegums planted long ago, and the surrounding farms carry gum windbreaks and acacia thorn bush. Floods along the river have shaped the town, and trees on the banks can be undercut and start to lean. Work is a mix of town gardens, farm windbreaks and bush clearing for grazing. Some indigenous trees in the district may be protected, and syringa and gums are listed invaders in many places, so check the listing for your tree and area before acting.
Typical chainsaw safety gear requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a helmet set and chaps for cutting up fallen branches and braai wood
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: protective gear for farm workers cutting gums, wattle and firewood
- Schools, churches and municipalities: protective gear for municipal parks and school grounds chainsaw users
