Borderline University

The worlds first and only online training school for landscape curbing

Training Dates/Videos

This is a free service to all curbing companies regardless of machine color. There are videos here with tips and techniques about situations you may run into when curbing among many other things. We hope these may help you if you are struggling.

We realize most mfg's really don't care about you after your purchase and when you have questions they don't have answers or refer you to a local curbing company. Do as I say not as I do..... Some of the mfg's don't even curb or never have. Every single person (6) who works at Borderline / Valley Borders has been on a curbing crew and knows what you may be going through. If you build it you should use it..

If you have additional questions or requests for videos please email us on this site or call 701-751-2705 and talk to someone who curbs...
