Germiston notes on tree care & clean-up
Primrose and Lambton homeowners mostly want jacarandas and plane trees trimmed off roofs and cables. Bedfordview owners on large stands ask arborists to assess whether an old oak can be kept with a crown reduction. Branches near power lines must be handled by the power utility or an authorised team. Garden refuse removal and chipping are often quoted together.
What grows around Germiston
Germiston is a rail and industrial town at the western edge of the East Rand, and its trees reflect that. Factories and yards in Wadeville, Isando and Dinwiddie have boundary rows of gums and pines that grow over fences, roofs and power lines. Older residential areas such as Primrose, Lambton and Elsburg have jacarandas, plane trees and syringas on small stands. Bedfordview, on the hill to the north, has large gardens with mature oaks and pines. Summer thunderstorms with hail cross the open East Rand quickly. Businesses ask for boundary trees to be cut back or felled, homeowners want trimming and stump grinding, and Bedfordview owners want big trees reduced.
The requests we see from Germiston usually come from:
- Businesses and commercial property: on-site chipping at hotels and office parks to cut down refuse loads
- Homeowners: chipping branches after trimming and spreading the mulch on beds and paths
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: chipping common area prunings on site and mulching gardens in the complex
