Pontoon boat trailers can be used to haul a tower. They often have a winch
on them that can be used to help pull the tower onto the trailer (I would
lay down plywood or something to not tear of the ground/tower/trailer).
These can usually be rented fairly cheaply.

Trailer should be plenty long enough that there would be no overhang,
requiring flags or anything.

Then it's just a matter of unloading it with some help at the destination.
