Questions about moving a PM 90 or rockwell 46-450

I am looking for a lathe and found two available from the same seller. Looking at a 5 hour road trip. One is a Powermatic 90 and the other is a Rockwell 46-450. I do not own a truck or trailer, but I'm willing to rent such. What advise do you have for loading and unloading such lathes short of men with brute force? Would you hire a wrecker with an extending boom? Maybe rent a diesel engine hoist?

The PM 90 is equipped with a vfd. The rockwell has a 3 phase motor. but no vdf.

thanks
