Gas in Polokwane
Polokwane is the capital of Limpopo and a stop on the N1 north, with hot summers and dry, mild winters that can still turn cold at night. Gas here is mostly for cooking, hot water and business. Takeaways and restaurants in the CBD and along Thabo Mbeki Street, guest houses that serve N1 travellers, and homes in Bendor, Flora Park and Seshego run on LPG. Cylinders arrive by road on the N1 to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, and delivery reaches game farms and lodges in the district. The summer heat is the main caution: keep cylinders upright in the shade, never in a parked car, and check hoses that dry out and crack in the sun.
