How to Confirm Your Address Before Curb Painting

A freshly painted curb number only helps if it matches your official address. Taking five minutes to confirm it first prevents the one mistake that cannot be fixed with a quick touch-up.

Start With Your Mailing Address

Check a recent utility bill, your property tax statement, or your mortgage paperwork. These show the address the county and city have on record, which is the one delivery services and emergency dispatch use.

Watch for Unit and Suffix Details

Some properties carry a suffix such as 1/2, a letter, or a unit number. If your home has one, decide ahead of time whether it belongs on the curb. For most single-family homes the main street number is all that is needed.

Corner Lots and Shared Driveways

If your lot sits on a corner, confirm which street your address officially faces. The curb number should be painted on the same street as your mailing address so drivers are never sent to the wrong side of the block.
