Midrand sits between Johannesburg and Pretoria on the N1, and gas reaches it from both sides: dealers, refill stations and delivery services in Halfway House and Kyalami bring cylinders in by road, and bulk tankers serve larger sites. Many new apartment blocks in Carlswald, Noordwyk and Waterfall limit or ban cylinders on balconies, so tenants check with the managing agent first. Smallholdings in Kyalami and Blue Hills use 48 kg cylinders for geysers and stoves, and cottages on the plots are often heated with gas in winter. Logistics warehouses along Allandale Road and near the N1 run fleets of LPG forklifts on scheduled exchanges.
