That assumes the fridge is mounted along one side of the trailer ... mine isn't, it sits along the rear wall of the trailer. My solution is simple - I only run the fridge when the trailer is level front-to-back and side-to-side, even turn it off when we arrive at the campground and leave it off until I'm parked & leveled on-site. When returning home I turn it off when I pull up to the house, before I begin the process of parking on our noticeably sloped driveway. If we're traveling and stop midday for awhile I'll also turn the fridge off until we're ready to leave. It may be overkill but it's a technique that's worked well for me for years with several different fridges in several different trailers - no problems at all. :B
