There are pros and cons to both rubber and plastic wheel chocks. Rubber chocks are typically more durable and have a better grip, while plastic chocks are lighter and easier to store. Ultimately, the best type of wheel chock for you depends on your needs and preferences.
Bricks can work as wheel chocks, but they are not the ideal material. Bricks are heavy and can be difficult to move into place. They can also break if they are hit too hard.
If you have a trailer with brakes, you need at least 2 wheel chocks. If you don't have brakes, you need at least 4 wheel chocks.
Yes, motorhomes need wheel chocks. Wheel chocks help prevent the vehicle from rolling while parked.

Instead of using bricks or wood to chock the tires on a 5' by 10' utility trailer, this was purchased to corral it in the driveway. Since my trailer is so light, I typically just pick up the tongue and place it in the wheel dock. However, if I have filled the trailer, I can work out the wheels with a little effort because it does have sloped sides.Overall robust construction prevents the trailer from shifting at all and the wheel from digging into my blacktop driveway, despite how basic it is. The trailer did not budge even in recent winds of 40 to 60 mph (and remember, it is a lightweight trailer). I'm really satisfied with the artwork and am confident that it will last for many years.

We have completely stopped using wood and now have six packs of them.Storage space is at a premium in an RV, and I've discovered more than once that they wind up serving numerous functions and are really versatile:1. The table is uneven in a few of the locations we've visited, and many of the spots aren't level either. To level the table, we have piled these underneath.2. It's funny how younger kids will stack these together like Legos if you leave them in their path. It's similar to seeing a small child play with the box a gift arrived in rather than the gift itself.3. They are ideal for virtually all sports while camping. They've served as bases in baseball, left- and right-side goalposts in soccer, end zones in football, and other purposes.Naturally, we also use them to level our camper:-)I'm not sure why, but it seems like folks just bicker over stuff like Chevy vs. Ford vs. Dodge trucks when it comes to wood vs. plastic levelers. Stick with wood if you've been using it for a while and it's been effective for you. These are absolutely something I would suggest if you're just getting into RVing because they serve a number of functions and are therefore more cost-effective than wood. Not to add, in my opinion, that they are simpler to store. I believed that the only location I could store the wood pieces I was utilizing was in my pass through. Never once would I keep them in the RV. Although it has been extremely simple to store these, if the pass through were too crowded, I believe this is one of the things I would think about keeping in the RV when not in use.The only drawback I can think of, if I were to list one, is that it could be cool to have more color possibilities. So that you could get a hue that matched one from the palette your RV used if you were someone who was obsessed about having everything match?

The walk from the patio to the kennel is ideal for these moveable stepping stones. A path that has been saturated with water becomes muddy whether you're going in or out. When it freezes, it becomes slick and dangerous for falls. By placing these directly on the path, it provides a secure footing and a secure journey to let the furry children in or out. When the weather gets better, they can be taken off. A fantastic investment in safety!According on other product reviews I've read, I don't understand why individuals would attempt to load hundreds or even thousands of pounds onto cheap plastic pavers. They can't be used to level out RVs, in my opinion. These are plastic, similar to milk crates, so using them to support a few hundred or thousand pound RV would be a waste of money. These are for you if you plan to use them to clear a passage through some mud or perhaps a little "patio" area (again, maybe).

I bought these chocks so I could use them on cars as I worked on them. Basically, I don't want the car to roll when it is raised off the ground in any way. It matters how I use them because I don't intend to use them to stop me from rolling down hills or incline, and I don't anticipate putting a lot of pressure on them. I've read reviews of people breaking them, but I've broken very sturdy metal ones with a car, proving that items can be broken no matter what they are. These are fantastic if you use them properly. I should also mention that using them for my use is not something technical support supports. They are solely intended for the purposes they are stated to serve. I disagree based on some common sense.The size fits almost all car, truck, and SUV tires perfectly. Many folks utilize tiny 2x4 blocks, haphazard wood wedges, and even those tiny rubber, plastic, and occasionally metal wedges. Even though they function as a simple 2x4, they are tiny in contrast to the tire. It is challenging to have faith that the product will fulfill your needs. I discover that many tires can accommodate these chocks to their maximum width. The idea of a bigger surface area seems more reliable in my opinion.Four of these chocks are mine. As an illustration, I put one both in front of and behind the rear tires when I elevate both front wheels. With a piece of rope or bungee cord and the holes on the back, I sort of keep them together. I don't do this to stop roll in both directions; instead, I do it to stop the rear side from slipping, which is held in place by the tire's other side. These are ideal for holding one end of the car while you raise the other if you want to lift all four tires. Once the second end is raised, you can easily remove them.For what I use them for, I don't believe they are worth the $10 price. However, if you wait for a deal and get four of them for $4–5, I don't think it's a bad decision. I enjoy having four, but I would need at least two of these.

I bought these to give a spread-out surface for jack stands rather than to use with the leveling blocks from Camco to lift RV tires. My asphalt driveway is damaged by the jack stands' pointed edges and even the wheels and castors of the jacks. Normally, I use stacks of cardboard, but over time, the sharp corners and edges of my floor jacks have made that just insufficient (craftsman and Torin brands).The jack stands' layout doesn't match the shapes, but once they're on them, the jack stands stay in place and evenly distribute the weight load. The price is reasonable, they may accommodate a tire if desired, and they are compatible with other Camco products. Oh, and the cost for a pair is reasonable. The blocks themselves are rather substantial, generally stiff, but with some flex.Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase and regret not getting them sooner. These alone are sufficient for me, therefore I don't intend to purchase any of the extra items. You can use them securely on grass because it appears that the flex is firm enough. I really wish I had purchased these sooner.Really, my only complaint is that they're so high. My stands probably increase the height by at least an inch if I want them to be at the lowest setting.

These are really useful and come with a travel pack. really practical I'm getting a new set. Last weekend, when our camp site was about 2 inches off-level, these came to the rescue. These performed admirably!The only issue is that, according to the manufacturer's instructions, you need 3, 6, or 10 to assemble these, so 4 in a box seems odd. These are frequently used as leveling jack pads, so I assume that's why they have this number.

Thus, I enjoy these. They are strong, lightweight, and stylish. On Amazon, I paid $18.88 for 10. A good deal, yes?When I visit the campground, I get a boyscout vibe. This year, I have new leveling blocks. I'm fantastic.I turn around to see the business that rents out RVs, and the driver of the vehicle has the trailer level and everything set up. What equipment does this well-run business, which rents out hundreds of units at once, use? trimmed to size 2X6s! Yep! Most likely, you currently have some scrap wood in your garage or barn that you could use. And if you damage one or need to replace one every few seasons, who cares? You can cut the 2X6s to any length you choose, and they are the perfect width for the tires to stack a couple high. I've always made the stabilizer and tongue jacks out of scrap wood. I have no idea why I failed to consider that for this application.Bam. You've just saved $18.88!However, if you must have the best of everything and give aesthetics a high priority, buy a lot of these and you will not stand out from the guy who used 2X6s instead to save $20.

We have a 25' Class B motorhome with rear stabilizer jacks, and it was difficult to level our vehicle when we had to use the stacking blocks on the front tires. These were bought in a set with little hope and the knowledge that they might be returned. I'm shocked to find out how awesome these little guys are. I've used these on three travels so far, and they work great, are lightweight, and can stack on top of one another in a small storage space. They are incredibly stable, stay put on an asphalt or dirt surface, and are simple to drive on. You have three levels, and if the top one isn't functional, your campsite is poor. The stackables are held in place by my attempt to move to a centered position with them, and my wife particularly likes not having to keep her foot close to the stackables to keep them in place. I wholeheartedly advise these for any RV.

Fantastic wheel chocks like this. Installation is simple and trouble-free. There are two sizes available for these Camco Wheel Stops. The SMALL version fits tandem axles with a space between the tires of 1.5" to 3.5" and the LARGE version fits tandem axles with a space between the tires of 3.5" to 5.5". I bought a set of tire stops from Camping World, unaware of their size, and unintentionally bought the LARGE set (they only carry the large set). When I realized they wouldn't function, I returned them and gave up on this Camco device. My day was salvaged when I discovered these Small ones by Camco. The layout and simplicity of installation are both excellent.
No, you only need to chock one side of your RV.
If you are leveling your RV with blocks, you will want to use chocks to help keep it in place. Chocks are placed under the tires on one side of the RV, and they help to keep the RV from rolling. You can find chocks at most RV stores, or you can make your own.
There's no definitive answer to this question since it depends on the size and weight of your vehicle, as well as the terrain you'll be using the chocks on. That said, a good rule of thumb is to choose chocks that are at least half the width of your tires. So, if your tires are 10 inches wide, you'll want chocks that are at least 5 inches wide.
When choosing wheel chocks, it is important to consider the weight and size of the vehicle as well as the terrain. Wheel chocks come in a variety of sizes and materials, so it is important to select the right chocks for the job. For example, softer materials like rubber are better suited for use on asphalt, while harder materials like steel are better suited for use on concrete. It is also important to consider the weather conditions when selecting wheel chocks, as some materials are not suitable for use in extreme cold or heat.
If you are worried about your camper rolling, there are a few things that you can do to help prevent this from happening. First, make sure that your camper is properly hitched to your vehicle. Second, use wheel chocks to help keep your camper in place. Finally, avoid parking on uneven or sloped surfaces. By taking these precautions, you can help keep your camper safe and secure.
The number of chocks an RV should have depends on the size and weight of the RV. For example, a small RV might only need two chocks, while a large RV could need four chocks.
