I had to move my scope approximately 250k to my regular dark sky site.
My closer site, not so dark, was 49k.
Then when you get there, 20 metres or so over rough grass paddocks.
My home, is good and dark, but trees make it mostly impractical.
Steps back and front also do not help.
I have had the 10" on Jupiter with a 3mm Radian, and steady.
Those days are few but.

If I made a purpose built flat bed trolley with adjustable feet for leveling at the front do you think one could manage this scope in my situation ?

Definitely.
It was mainly the lifting the scope (base and tube separate) in and out of the van that really caused my pain. A trolley over flat ground with adjustable legs would be the best option from what I know about your situation. Take your time to get it level, it is really important to accuracy.
Good luck with your decision.
