Havent got a porty my self but i think some guys use a ramp, ive also heard of people taking the motors out (if its modular) to bring the weight down while lifting on and off.

Hope this helps

I made a box out of ply and I just lean it back then lift it on to the box then lift it in to the van easy and I Have a ninja and that is heavy  it only cost a couple of quid to make and when not in use I store my chems in it.

My Rhino is of similar shape and size only heavier I believe, I just tilt backwards until I get the front wheels onto back of van then pull up with handle and push straight in, fairly easy really.
I used to lift straight up but decided against, as its flippin heavy and cant be doing your arms and back any good.

Also, make sure the machine is empty when u lift it. If you have more than a couple of pints of water left in the machine you'll find it impossible.
