Abstract
A system and methods for stabilizing a towed trailer include a stabilizing accessory system that both stabilizes the trailer and stows upon a frame of the trailer for transport. The system includes a wheel chock that detachably attaches to a stabilizing block. The stabilizing block features an elevated wheel dock configured to receive a jack wheel of the trailer, a post recess configured to receive a square or round jack post of the trailer, and a plate recess configured to receive a plate jack stand of the trailer. The stabilizing block may be secured to a frame of the trailer via a securement strap or via a switchable magnet embedded within the block. The wheel chock is configured to immobilize a trailer tire and may secure to the frame via its attachment to the stabilizing block, supplemented by a magnet embedded in its bottom surface. Other embodiments are disclosed.
