It's not rocket surgery. I stack two of my trailers for winter storage every year.
Mine are exactly 1/2 size of what you're doing (a 12' stacked on top of a 16') but the principles are the same. I just winch it up the ramp.
The most important piece is having something that rolls or slides real easy under the jack(s). If you just try to slide the trailer on stock jack feet, they will dig into the dirt, and even if you manage to get them up on the deck, they will tear up your deck boards.
