Another thing I notice were the placement of a treated 4x4 by many under the front jacks, sometimes doubled up ( no wider than the jack foot). I've seen trailers get blown right off them in a storm and during hook up. I have put 8"x8"x2" slabs under the jack pads not stacked to keep them from sinking.
Not mine to worry about, but I just can't understand the lack of thought put into things that cost ten's of thousands of dollars, much less things that could harm or kill you or someone else.
I haven't used chocks or had my 5er blown of the 4x4 blocks since 1970.
