Summary

M Taljaard Block Yard was started in 2019. The block yard has been very busy and stable. In March 2025, we saw an oppurtunity to open a Truck Stop, as we had a very big yard that is safe and secure. We have been very busy ever since we opened. The property is situated right next to the N10 and is fully enclosed. The business also has a valid zoning certificate for:

1. General Business

2. Scrap Yard

3. Service Station

4. Transport Use

5. Warehouse

6. Outdore Storage

7. Builders Yard

8. Communication Tower

There is a high potential to put up a diesel depo or filling station.
