Maybe you could ask: Do you HAVE to use your own pickup and trailer?

Here’s what I did, when I needed to haul a combine: I rented an F350 truck, with a gooseneck hitch, from the one place in Kansas City that rented pickups that would allow you to tow with them. Enterprise has pickups, but doesn’t want/allow you to tow, but there was one place in town that would rent trucks that did allow towing.

Then I found a rental place that had a gooseneck trailer that would haul 10,000 pounds. Maybe it would haul more, I didn’t ask. Although they said the empty trailer weighed 4,000 pounds. It did have trailer brakes and the rental truck also had them.

My suggestion would be to Rent a truck and trailer, something with enough capacity to haul what you need.

Although what you're wanting to do, sounds like it weighs more than a combine.
