The use of a couple 2x4s or 3x6s make a ramp for the curb. I would never try to 'hit' the curb with

a running start. I always put my 'ramp' in place and let the trailer tires climb it up to the curb.

Remember, my trailer weighs in over 5 tons, so I'm not going to go 'hitting' the curb.

Looks like I have to straighten y'all out yet again..
I have never backed up over the curb. If someone was across the street , limiting maneuvering room, I'd just park the rig on the street until they left.
I have run over the curb a couple times 'exiting' my driveway due to tight conditions.
