I really want to just go put something under the wheels but I've never talked to these people.

Update edit: thank you for all the replies. I went over and knocked but no answer. It's definitely not chocked. If I see them come home I'll go back over. I'm worried as soon as the weight shifts loading it that it will just go down the hill.

Not only does it need blocking on the wheels, but that thing's also apt to be stolen with the hitch just sitting there like that. They might consider parking a car in front of it too.

For real. That's a nice trailer. Any dingus with a truck could run off with it in 5 minutes.

It reminds me of the first time I met my wife.

No she loaded me up in the back of her minivan and I’ve never looked back.

My family had a trailer growing up and ours was stolen from in front of our house. It was never found.

I asked my friend if he wanted to lock the wheels of his new trailer w a chain and he said na it’s fine. Then a week later it had been stolen

If I owned a trailer I'd be so worried about this. There was a local story around here of someone who had their race car on a trailer hooked up to their truck at a hotel. When they woke up the trailer and car were gone. Idk if they ever found it... the race car was not registered.

Unless there's room to back the trailer further in, I don't think parking a car in front of it is an option. You'd be blocking the footpath.
