What does "curbside pickup" mean in this context?

And I've often wished for an LA->LV option that wasn't either shady or as expensive as the cost of a Southwest ticket.

Instead of picking up passengers at a bus terminal like Greyhound buses do, these services pick up passengers at designated points in each city without any real infrastructure.

There are some Mexican bus lines that do this route, and while their terminals aren't in great locations, they aren't shady. No on-board Wifi or anything, but the experience is usually more pleasant than Greyhound. Check out http://www.eplalimo.com/
