Curb box, curb-stop box, curb-valve box, Buffalo box?
The "curb stop" is the valve that is on the service from the main into your house. i.e. The 8" main in the street has a saddle tap with your 3/4" service line on it. Within 8 ft of the connection between your service and the main is your curb stop. The curb stop is a valve buried underground. In order to open/close the valve a curb box is placed over the valve. It is essentially a metal tube that lets you open and close the curb stop.
