Flatbed truck transport of glider in trailer?
Why not take a road trip yourself? It could be fun this time of year.
Load up the family and see the sights along the way.
I would offer my services but, at a dollar per mile the cost would be
ballpark $5K. You could probably use uship.com for a lot less.

Years ago, on a corporate move, I moved my ship via a closed trailer. We loaded and unloaded at warehouses with docks for the trucks that allowed roll on roll off. That part was OK; however, the trailer ride was so rough with the light load that the wings bounced out of their cradles and were damaged. I agree with others that the light load of just a ship in trailer may cause problems.
