What weight is the trailer rated to? Single axle? Is it long enough to close the gate? Why not rent a car hauler?

If you put it on a cart that places it above the rim of the trailer only the cart has to fit the trailer.

U Haul, roller = no problem

I have done it several times, my wife doesn't agree, but it will work easily. I have used a cheapie come along to pull the hulk onto the trailer

The U-Haul car hauler is not expense ( seems like $59 a day last time I used one.
Don’t do a one way …..it gets more expensive that way.

Before I had an aluminum trailer, I used to use them all the time. $60 ish for the day. I’d often pick up in the evening the day before and not get charged extra. Only downside is there’s no winch.

Transported a no-op 914 with a Uhaul trailer. The only issue was getting the 914 on the trailer when there were just 2 of us. I ended up buying a crank winch from HF and bolted it to the trailer. Pulled the 914 on the trailer no problem.
