We run fully-compliant cross-border side tipper haulage from South Africa into Zambia via Chirundu and Kazungula — serving the Copperbelt mines around Ndola and Kitwe and the bulk traffic feeding Lusaka.
Zambia's Copperbelt is the engine of Southern African mining, and almost everything that feeds it crosses the Zambezi at Chirundu or Kazungula. Our 34 ton side tippers run the corridor up through Lusaka to the mines and smelters around Ndola, Kitwe, Chingola and Mufulira — and bring copper concentrate, cathode and bulk minerals back toward the coast.
From copper ore and concentrate to lime, coal and mining consumables, we put a reliable, fully-supported combination on the route — with permits, customs paperwork and insurance sorted before the truck reaches the Zambezi.
