PORTABLE RAMP

The “Curb-It” is a device that allows any lawn tractor to drive onto curbs to mow the grass on the medians with a lawn tractor instead of a hand mower. After lining the back wheels up, lawn mowers can reverse onto the median using the Curb-It, mow the grass and then drive forward to the street using the device again. Manufactured in all-metal construction, the sturdy Curb-It is easy to assemble and use and is fully adjustable to the wheel widths of any size lawn tractor. Curb-It
