You must be pretty strong then lol!
You can slide it or 'walk' it on the corners, but you'll ruin the sump (I know from experience!). Could hire a crane from HSS, but it'll be about £30 a day. Also try ebay/gumtree as individuals often hire out cranes.

Just get a mate to help you lift it out put the jack on the subframe and lower it as much as you can so you don't have to lift it as high
