Mbombela notes on equipment & supplies
Farm contractors on the R40 towards White River and Hazyview often buy a PTO wood chipper or hire one for orchard prunings. Pole saws are popular in Sonheuwel for palm fronds and low branches. In the humid summer, chainsaw chains and air filters need more care, and full protective gear stays important even in the heat.
Trees in Mbombela
Mbombela sits in the warm Lowveld, and things grow fast here. Gardens fill with flamboyants, African tulip trees, jacarandas, palms, figs and strelitzias, and a tree that was pruned two years ago can be back over the roof. Around town, mango, avocado, litchi and macadamia orchards cover the hills, and bush on the granite koppies holds indigenous trees such as marula, which is protected. Humid summers bring heavy rain and storms that drop limbs on roofs and lines. Homeowners and estates ask for regular crown work and palm cleaning, farmers ask for orchard thinning and old tree removal, and developers clear bush on new stands. Check whether a tree is protected before you cut.
