Do you chock only one side when using leveling blocks?

I guess I am paranoid.. I use 4 wheel chocks -- in front of front tires and behind back tires. I bought rubber ones at Harbor Freight and like them much better than plastic.. I can wedge them using boards or lego blocks.. I then add between the wheel after I get set up if I am staying more than one night.. usually give the tires time to cool and check the rubber ones and tighten the between the tires.

Never had that problem. I don't need chocks unless I am parked on an incline or decline.

Roto Chocks keep the trailer more stationary when people are walking within the trailer.

that's why most of us use tandem wheel chocks of some kind, on BOTH sides. just using plastic wedge chocks is just asking for trouble.

Both sides always - get some Rotochoks

Both sides always --- always.

If you use enough leveling blocks or adequately long boards you can still chock both sides. The chocks then set on a leveling block at the same height as the tire. I have found that using the TV to tighten up the front axle chocks by pulling against them while inserting two rear axle chocks up tight is almost as good as putting the wedge between the tires on each side.

First I do my side to side leveling while still hooked up by placing the necessary # of levelers. Then I install the RotoChocks. If only overnight, then just one side, if for any extended of time, I install RotoChocks on both sides. I am not real impressed with those plastic chalks before and after the tires as there is no direct contact with any real pressure against the tires. While traveling and temporarily stopping i.e. Rest Stop where I have to leave the Diesel engine running to cool down and I don't want to trust just the emergency brake on the truck, I just put a 12" piece of wood 4x4 before or after the tire. I attached a strap to the block to place or remove it and then just throw it into the bed of the truck when done. works for me:)

I only chock one side.
