😀👍🏿Good Stuff,GreatTips
great video on it may not be feasible in many situations but I have taken to getting stoned bags of significant weight putting them in cheap duffle bags... and I place those bags behind the chocks.... I don't know if they enhance the safety but I've always thought that pressed up against the back of the chock... they make it far less likely that the chock
.. . I likewise do the same thing for hydraulic jacks when I'm forced to work on a surface that is not perfectly... Home Depot Menards Pebbles rocks something heavy enough seems to make all the difference
Thanks so much ❤️,
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Great video, @Gregg Distributors LP! We're in Ontario and looking for wheel chocks for our 40' Skoolie. We have 38" tires and GVWR 34,200 lbs. What would be your recommendation for chocks? We like the sound of the Urethane chocks!
Thanks so much!

This would be the urethane wheel chocks we would recommend for your 38" tires > greggdistributors.ca/Material-Handling/Dock-Equipment/Wheel-Chocks/pcr553358
Thanks for stopping by at our all-Canadian channel, stay tuned for more to come!
i wonder if it can hold a runaway pickup truck revving up with gear selected
Thanks for the video. It makes a lot of sense with what you’re saying. I learned something new that you can chalk the wheels, both front and back typically I chalk it in the front…. My question is though. when a truck is in a loading dock, should the wheels be chocked on both sides of the truck? Meaning left side and right side??
Regulations for chocking wheels can vary based on where you are located and what your organizations safety guidelines are. Speak with your organizations safety department on what your procedures are. It is always good practice to use wheel chocks to help prevent vehicles and trailers from shifting and sliding.
Some rubber blocks have a concave "bottom" edge. Users put that curve against the tire vs. Placing this bow flat to the ground. What is the correct way to use this rubber chock? (22.5" tire)
The concave is best suited for (and is typically designed for) "cupping" the tire, whereas the flat portion of the chock is best suited for contact with the ground as it provided the greatest surface area contact point and thus the most friction.
i recently purchased an ambulance f450 dually, converting to a rv. vehecle weighs alittle over 4000lbs, which choch do you recommend..?
