Gas in Mthatha
Mthatha is the main town of the former Transkei, a regional centre on the N2 that serves a wide spread of rural villages. LPG comes in by road over long distances, and is sold by dealers, refill stations, hardware stores and spaza-style outlets, with many families buying smaller cylinders for cooking where electricity is unreliable or absent. Winters inland get cold, so gas heaters are common, and schools, clinics, guest houses and takeaways in town use gas for cooking. Distances mean delivery runs on set days, and stock can run short in winter. Never use a heater in a closed room overnight, and keep cylinders upright and out of the sun.
The requests we see from Mthatha usually come from:
- Homeowners: a stove, a three panel heater or the braai run off one cylinder at a time
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: food stalls and small takeaways running a single burner or warmer
- Guest houses, lodges and venues: self catering cottages with a two plate hob and a heater for winter nights
