We run fully-compliant cross-border side tipper haulage from South Africa into Namibia — feeding the uranium and base-metal mines, supplying Windhoek and running the long desert haul to the Port of Walvis Bay.
Namibia is a country of long distances and serious mining. The uranium operations of the Erongo region, the base-metal and salt mines, and the deep-water Port of Walvis Bay all rely on dependable road haulage. Our 34 ton side tippers run the corridor from South Africa through Ariamsvlei or Vioolsdrif, up to Windhoek and onward to the coast at Walvis Bay and Swakopmund.
From uranium ore and base metals to salt, gypsum, aggregates and port-bound minerals, we put a reliable, fully-supported combination on the route — built for the heat, distance and remoteness of Namibian desert haulage.
