Cap Concrete Block RV Pad

I would just pour a 4" pad using 3000 PSI concrete the size that you need plus some extra. Make sure the ground under is hard packed with some 3/4 minus.
FWIW I park my 5th wheel on a gravel pad. It's never totally level. This spring/summer I'm going to pour 2- 2'X 5'X 8" deep pads 8' apart.
I could see those concrete blocks cracking pretty easy.

The concrete pavers sold at the big box stores will only support foot traffic. As they weather, they will crack, even if left unloaded. This is because they are formed out of weak material and are semi-porous.

Use bricks. They will support all the weight you want.

I used the 3 inch thick pads and they held up fine. It was not easy for me to drive on them as they are a small target. You could build a frame to the size of pad you want and pour in sacks of cement.

I would use the thickest of the 2. And they are only as strong as the material you place them on. I would use a min. of 6" compacted base rock under the pavers.

Thank you.

I tried These and they cracked, looked bad, so we removed them and made a pad of crushed stone. 18" deep 12' wide 45' long.

Has anyone used the Cap Concrete Blocs to use as a Pad to park the trailer on?

I wanted to make it big enough to just put the tires on and off the grass.

Cap Concrete 3.6" x 7.6" x 15" wide

Or they have the Concrete pavers 12" x 12" Square.

Thank you.

I would make a VERY solid base with crushed gravel about 8" deep then use pavers. Pavers are more dense and designed to carry the weight.
