..So is the consensus that a haul trailer would work? Just with the back end hanging a little over?
For the cost of getting up there and back with the rental, I might just hire someone to bring it down on a 18 wheeler... Any thoughts about that?
No, I think the consensus is it "may" work, but not without first testing to see if 1 it fits, and 2 it handles it OK. Trial and error.
Having someone haul it may be an excellent option, look into prices.
Borrowing or renting a suitable trailer is another option.
Can you just drive it, that saves figuring a way to haul it?
