Jacking to change a tire or service brakes or bearings?

I know this has been beaten to death, but my situation is a little different than most of the threads I see here. I have towed a lot of different trailers a lot of miles, and have changed tires in gas...

One thing nobody has mentioned is how to compensate for the camber of the road if faced with having to lift on a non level surface. This is why in addition to a thick block to put the jack on, one should carry a couple of wedges to put under the block to level it for the jack.
