You can also hire a flatbed tow truck with a driver that has

You could also send him to the local terminal.

I agree that a rollback wrecker with an experienced driver is about
the best way to move a piece of heavy machinery into (or out of) a
ground level garage. Unless the freight terminal is far away, sending
the rollback to the terminal is probably the best option.

Here's my buddy "Animal" moving a large furnace shell out of my shop.
(Animal has the pony tail, I have the shiny spot where the pony tail
used to be.) I wouldn't want him dating my daughter, but he's never
made me nervous moving anything, and I don't recall ever paying more
than $150 for a half-day job.
