I would say have it towed prefessionally, or buy the equipment to do it. If you have a truck with a class III hitch and electronic brake controller (or a friend with one), then buy a tow dolly or trailer. Often the U-haul stuff is falling apart and the usual scam is that they need a u-haul specific adapter. You will probably be towing once or twice again and if you get a good deal on a dolly, it may pay for itself in a year. And if you have to share it with the friend who has the truck then that's a good deal for both of you.
