Logistics — Durban

Coal transport to Durban and Richards Bay

The Beitbridge corridor is the busiest route out of Zimbabwe and the standard path for coal destined for South African industry or export via Durban and Richards Bay.

We run contracted fleets on this corridor with fixed rates, so your landed cost does not drift with the spot trucking market.

Corridor detail

Hwange to Bulawayo to Beitbridge to Johannesburg or Durban, typically 7–12 days door to door including border processing.

Beitbridge border management

Pre-cleared documentation, transit bonds and a dedicated clearing agent keep trucks moving. Delays at Beitbridge are the main cost risk on this route and the main thing we manage for you.

South African domestic delivery

We deliver directly to smelters, foundries and cement plants in Gauteng, Mpumalanga, Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal on a delivered-to-plant basis.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the Beitbridge crossing take?
With pre-cleared documentation, typically under 48 hours. Uncleared loads can sit for days, which is why we pre-clear everything.
Do you deliver directly to plants in Gauteng?
Yes — delivered-to-plant pricing is available for South African industrial buyers.
