Need helping moving a machine from Pasadena to City of Industry, then back...

I have a machine that just arrived from the UK and is now sitting in Pasadena. Much to my surprise when it showed up it has a wood worm infection (a wood damaging beetle that makes holes in wood like termites). This is actually quite common in the UK and mainland Europe... I've had to fumigate 20 or 30 machines in the last 6 years, probably 1/4 of the machines I've purchased oversees.

So I need to get it down to the fumigators (down by where the 110 fwy meets the 105), and then I need to pick it up about 2 days later and bring it back to Pasadena.

I sold my dying pickup with liftgate a while back and it won't fit in my SUV.

I can rent a truck or hire movers or something but I thought I'd ask here first to see if anyone was particularly local and interested in helping. Bribery could include a little cash, and/or a tour of some of the collection I've been putting together for a museum or museum exhibit... a couple hundred coin-op machines dating back 130 years to the 1880s.

The photo attached isn't the machine that needs to be moved, but it is made by the same company and is nearly identical in shape and size. The top sign detaches...
