Please guess what these are used for

We bought a used motorhome and no longer have contact information for previous owner. We don’t know what these two assembled small platforms are used for. Leveling? Steps? Wheel chocks? . Thank you

My guess... leveling. Made from scraps they had.

Toss them in a storage compartment and in time their purpose will reveal itself --------- or not.

May even be the same purpose the previous owner made them for ------- or not.

Looks like leveling blocks made with artificial wood deck planks.

my guess is for under stabilizing jacks in sandy or wet ground... too small for leveling blocks for MH I would think... If you toss them, you will probably be sorry at some point...

Maybe he didn’t use them in home state in the soil? If the motorhome has jacks he may have used them to protect his asphalt or concrete driveway.

Maybe to block open refrigerator and freezer doors when not being used.

I can't help myself, but a line from "True Lies" popped into my head, when Arnold Schwartsenegger's character replied "It's an espresso machine. No, it's a snowcone maker." Sorry.
