Equipment & supplies in Northern Cape: local notes
Hire choice is thin outside Kimberley and Upington, so many farmers and contractors own a petrol chainsaw and a spare chain. Tool hire shops in both towns rent chippers and stump grinders, but a long tow on the N14 or N10 adds cost. Heat matters: carry extra water, keep the saw's air filter clean in the dust, and wear chaps and a visor.
What grows around Northern Cape
Big skies, few trees and long distances shape tree work in the Northern Cape. The camel thorn, or kameeldoring, is the tree of the Kalahari around Kathu, Kuruman and Upington, and it is protected under the National Forests Act, as is the shepherd's tree: no cutting or pruning without a licence. In Kimberley and the Karoo towns, pepper trees, bluegums and old pines give shade on stands and church grounds, and some have grown huge. Mesquite has spread along dry riverbeds and farm roads in parts of the province. Heat, drought and strong wind weaken limbs, so requests are mostly for dead tree removal, invader clearing on farms and careful pruning, often with travel costs added.
Typical chainsaws requests in the area come from:
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: clearing fallen gums and wattle, cutting firewood and fixing fence lines on the farm
- Homeowners: cutting up fallen branches, pruning small trees and sawing braai wood in the garden
- Schools, churches and municipalities: park and school grounds staff cutting up storm damage and dead limbs
