Rustenburg notes on equipment & supplies
Developers clearing stands near Boitekong and Marikana often hire a towable chipper rated for thick branches, and thorn branches wear chains quickly. Homeowners in Geelhoutpark buy small petrol chainsaws and pole saws for the garden. Thick gloves and cut-resistant boots matter more than usual in thorny bushveld, along with a helmet, visor, ear muffs and chaps, and a first aid kit in the bakkie.
What grows around 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.

The requests we see from Rustenburg usually come from:
- Homeowners: taking a big tree over the roof down in sections from a platform
- Developers and building sites: removing tall trees close to neighbouring buildings before construction
- Businesses and commercial property: pruning trees beside office blocks, signage and parking lot lights
