Equipment & supplies in Upington: local notes
Farms near Groblershoop and Kakamas often own a chainsaw and a PTO chipper for vineyard and orchard prunings. Pole saws and long pruners suit palm work from the ground in town gardens. Chippers and stump grinders may need to be booked ahead or brought in. Heat is a real risk, so plan work early and keep protective gear on.
Trees in Upington
Upington is an oasis on the Orange River, with vineyards, date palms and green irrigated fields in a hot, dry desert setting. Date palms line streets and farms, while river banks carry willows, karee, wild tamarisk and invaders such as mesquite. Gardens hold pepper trees, palms and gums, all of which rely on irrigation. Summers are extremely hot, and storms are short, with strong winds that can drop palm fronds and dead wood. Farmers ask for windbreak and riverbank clearing and old vine and palm removal, while homeowners want palms cleaned and pepper trees cut back. Check the alien listing for your area and whether indigenous trees are protected.
Typical wood chipper hire requests in the area come from:
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: clearing wattle and windbreak branches into chips over a long weekend
- Homeowners: chipping a big pile of prunings after the jacaranda or plane tree is cut back
- Businesses and commercial property: chipping on site after trees on an office park or parking lot are pruned
