theres companies you can hire but that wont be cheap im sure

thats a smaller machine i believe
but you have to figure its gonna be somewhere in the 5-7000 lb range
though it could be more, not sure though

that kinda weight on wheels you better get that thing super strapped down, any shifting of weight while your driving could be disastrous (and ive seen it happen)

knowing what roads youll probably end up taking back (LIE to the whitestone or throggs neck to 95
the 1st 15 miles is where youll most likely hit major traffic and its not exactly a straight shot highway to highway with a commercial vehicle or a trailer in tow (like to pick up the van wyck from the LIE you have to get off college pt blvd and take side streets)

you could take the BQE north to the triborough (now called the Robert F Kennedy bridge, i like the name triborough better lol)
to the bruckner exp to 95 BUT that way has very narrow lanes, not much shoulder, concrete walls close to lanes and VERY sharp turns (not exactly the way you want to trailer something)

well however you do it
be very careful and good luck
