Be careful with boards that are longer than the ground clearance of the trailer. When driving off, and the end is not supported, it can tip up and catch the underside causing you to be stuck like a post turtle. Yes, I have seen it happen.
I use a 2" x 10" under the curb side set of tires when parking on the driveway in order to level the trailer side-to-side and found that beveling one end of the board (or both ends if you prefer) solves this problem nicely.

Likewise, with the Andersen plastic thing, I wonder if smaller trailers might be low enough to cause the same problem.
I could see that, especially with a single axle trailer which doesn't require trimming the length of the Andersen levelers as often is a case with a dual axle trailer like mine with tight axle spacing. Trimming the leveler may help solve this but doing so also increases the leveler's minimal lift. :(
