Hiring plant in Vereeniging

A coal-mining past, steel and engineering industry and riverside residential estates create a mixed plant hire market in Vereeniging. TLBs are hired for house foundations, drainage and pools near the Vaal, while excavators, graders and rollers work on industrial yards, municipal roads and housing in Sebokeng and Evaton. Karoo shale and sandstone with dolerite sills dominate, so a breaker may be needed when footings strike hard rock, and clay areas need deeper trenches. Old coal workings call for an engineer's check before heavy platforms go in. Rain falls mostly in thunderstorms from October to March. The R59 and N1 give good access to Johannesburg and the south.
