I would put some 2X12's under the jacks. Jack the coach up. Put 2X12's under the wheels. Drive to the end of the board. Move the back board to the front, etc. Just like they move trains when there no tracks. You are correct in worrying about tow operators. At our lot, about 25% of the time the motorhomes were damaged when being towed. It will cost less than a hundred dollars for the lumber and you will still have the lumber for another project. Plus not worrying about damaging the coach.

Got the rear of our previous coach, stuck in my father in laws pasture. His tractor wouldn't budge it. A neighbor saw us digging on it and brought over a heavy 4x4 welding truck, and after several attempts, it finally came out. If you are anywhere near oil country, or pipeline workers, those guys will help you.

Used my 30 hp 1955 tractor to pull my 21k lbs Bounder out of the front yard mud up to both axles. Took days to fill in the ruts.
