How do I Keep a Trailer from Rocking?

To prevent a trailer from rocking verify that the RV is level (with the unit’s built-in leveller or a hand-held one), that the wheels are chocked (i.e. safety blocked) and that the stabilizer jacks are properly extended on a block or wood base and not the bare ground where they can sink into. Leveling jacks will reduce up and down motion, stabilizers will reduce side to side motion, and wheel chocks will help to reduce any movement of the tires. To chock the wheels, place a sturdy material (wedge-shaped wood or designated polyurethane or rubber block) against the vehicle’s wheels to prevent movement. For additional lateral support you can add X chocks in between the tires when parked. For more information read the article RV Set Up & Tear Down Checklist.
