Curb Ramp
cooljimy84:
Blocks of wood get my vote.
Cheap,
Easy to remove,
Easy to replace,
Non permanent,

actually saw some rubber ramps last night against a curb while collecting some wheels.
i can confirm we never paid for a drop curb and they reshaped the whole path to a mild slope too, although as you say this may not help you.
i'd be tempted to knock up some cement and throw it down in a ramp shape against the curb - maybe with a pipe through to allow the drainage to continue, anything like rubber ramps / blocks of wood etc may draw attention and there's always some busy body on a hair trigger ready to complain about things.

And that busy body won't complain about a load of cement being stuck down?

yes but it's less obvious solution :happy2:

Just worth remembering.
Driving your car over that kerb as it stands, and up onto your property is illegal. Also putting a fixed concrete ramp in yourself also would be frowned upon by the local council paper shufflers.
You need to make some sort of removable ramps ideally.
