What is a Kerbside?

Kerbside, also spelled curbside, refers to the area adjacent to the curb or edge of a road or street. In the shipping industry, kerbside refers to the point where a shipment is delivered or picked up from a truck or other vehicle parked at the side of the road. For example, a courier may deliver a package to a customer’s kerbside, where the customer can retrieve it from the delivery vehicle. Kerbside delivery or pickup is often used in residential areas where there is limited access or space for large delivery vehicles.
