I have purchased my share of heavy stuff. Best way for me anyway, I have a 2 wheel low to the ground trailer with a 1800 lb net weight load capacity. The one I have now is NOT tilt bed but either will work. Have them load at terminal and not all can come off the dock to load, so in that case straps on the fork truck forks will work. When your home its only about 18 inches or so to the ground, some shop built ramps and a couple of floor jacks work wonders. Never (knock on wood) dropped anything nor did anyone get even a smashed finger. Oh and 99% of this is by myself.
