    If you don't have a semi tractor of your own, call the biggest tow truck company in town for a quote to haul it.

    If they won't do it. Ask around, someone you know, knows a truck driver that could pull this in for you between loads for an easy $50....

    I'd say cut it up and separate it if you have the time and means to do it. If you need the cash asap then just bring it in as is.
