Phalaborwa was built around the Palabora copper mine and Foskor's phosphate operations. Our 34 ton side tipper combinations haul copper, phosphate, magnetite and aggregates from pit to plant, stockpile and rail across this corner of Limpopo.
Few towns owe their existence to mining as directly as Phalaborwa. The town grew up around the Palabora copper mine and Foskor's phosphate plant, and the surrounding orebody yields copper, phosphate, magnetite and a host of aggregate by-products that move in enormous volumes every year. When a mine or processing plant needs reliable, high-volume haulage to keep its stockpiles turning, that is exactly the work our side tippers were built for.
We deploy 34 ton side tipper trucks and trailers on mining-haul contracts across the Phalaborwa belt. With one all-inclusive wet-hire rate, you get a fully maintained, fully insured combination and an experienced driver — ready for weighbridges, mine access protocols and the round-the-clock rhythm of the operations.
