Make 2 chocks using some at least 1/2 inch thk plywood cut to 2x10 lumber width and about 18 to 24 inches in length for the base. Screw the plywood to some home made chocks made from layers of 2x10 screwed together with each layer shorter than the next and arranged to suit the curve of the tires. Make sure they are attached at one end of the plywood and not centered. Make sure all screws are long enough and heavy enough that they will not shear and use enough of them.

The weight of the tires on the plywood will keep the chocks from sliding if the slope is not too steep. The trailer will help keep itself in place. Use X-chocks or similar between the 2 tires on each side.
