Just rent a cube van and ask for a second loading ramp, tell them its
for a piano or something equally creative. Take blocks of wood to nail
down in front of and behind tires to keep car from moving. Just don't
pound nails all the way in, makes them hellish to get back out without
messing floor up.(TRUST ME) Good luck.
