Vehicles, boats & commercial in Tzaneen: local notes
Farm bakkies, tractors and packhouse vehicles around Letsitele and the citrus estates need tough canvas or vinyl seat covers. Lodges and guesthouses send game drive vehicle benches, pool loungers and dining chairs in quieter months, often done in batches. Boats on Tzaneen Dam need marine vinyl cushions, and hospitals and clinics in the area send treatment couches for recovering in cleanable vinyl.
Tzaneen: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Mist rolls down from Magoebaskloof most summer mornings, and in Tzaneen the result is a damp, warm valley where mould is the enemy of upholstery. Couches and dining chairs in farmhouses around Politsi, Letsitele and Duiwelskloof often come in with mildew under the cushions or rusted springs, and the fix is new foam, a breathable fabric and a good clean. The avocado, mango and citrus farms keep trimmers busy with bakkie and tractor seats, while guesthouses in Haenertsburg and lodges on the road towards Hoedspruit want patio cushions, dining seats and game drive vehicle benches. Nkowankowa and Lenyenye have home upholsterers working on lounge suites. Supplies often come from Polokwane, so a special order can take a few days.
