Scissor Jack Storage bag

It’s as safe as you place it. You can either use the jacking points on the van or place it under the suspension arms. I use a trolley jack at home, but I ain’t lugging one about “on tour”. I have 4 200x200 squares of 19mm ply in the van, they come in for a multitude of uses, and make a good base for the bottle jack. Thus fulfilling the “any object must have more than one use” rule, they make a good base for the bottle jack (a trolley jack is virtually useless on anything but a solid level surface).
I have taken off my jack bracket. I've stored the jack in sliding seat concealed box. I don't like the jack where it fits under sill without a rubber mount so as not to chip the paint. Hence I need an alternative to carry on van.

I’m intrigued. What else do you use the squares of ply for? I’ve got FOMO that I need some now.

Levelling the bbq & outdoor table. I’ve used them under the sun canopy legs when the ground’s been soft. Under the jockey wheel on the trailer. They’re just handy things to have.
