Definition

a chock refers to a device or object used to secure cargo and prevent its movement during transportation or storage. Chocks are typically wedge-shaped and made of sturdy materials such as rubber or wood. They are placed under the wheels or other parts of vehicles, containers, or equipment to provide stability and prevent rolling or shifting.
