What to know locally in East London
Tool hire shops and garden equipment dealers around Wilsonia, Arcadia and the West Bank carry chainsaws, chippers and stump grinders. Contractors working in Mdantsane and Qonce often hire for a day at a time. Sappy subtropical wood and wet weather mean more chain sharpening and cleaning. On sloping Beacon Bay stands, a compact chipper that can reach the back of a garden saves carrying branches up the slope by hand.
What grows around East London
East London is greener and wetter than much of the Eastern Cape coast, with subtropical bush in its river valleys and lush gardens in Beacon Bay, Nahoon and Vincent. The Nahoon, Buffalo and Gonubie rivers cut deep wooded valleys through the city, and many stands back onto them. Big coral trees, figs, Norfolk Island pines and old gums share gardens with fast exotic growth. Coastal storms and strong winds bring trees down every so often. Requests range from homes and complexes to schools, the harbour area and farms towards Qonce and Bhisho. Some coastal forest trees are protected and much of the valley bush is sensitive, so check before clearing a stand.
The requests we see from East London usually come from:
- Homeowners: turning hedge clippings and fruit tree prunings into mulch for beds and paths
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: chipping branches on site so the complex sends fewer loads to the dump
- Businesses and commercial property: a grounds team chipping prunings from office parks and hotel gardens
