    Though if you found a big wench I'm sure she could handle her side of the lifting, and probaly out drink you to boot!

    Sounds like you really need to fix a winch on your trailer or perhaps another vehicle on site such as a tractor with a bucket or other attachment on the front to push it onto your trailer.
    In the long run having a winch available on your trailer will make things easier
