I have moved with cyclura, multiple times. The one cage that lasted the longest(4 moves) was made of redwood 2x4's with PVC coated screen. It was 10'Lx11'W x6'H and held togather on the corners by lag bolts, and metal "L" brackets. Each 11' side consisted of 2 units that were joined with simpson tie straps and lag bolts. The top was 3 units of pvc pipe with wire screen. The screen was connected to the PVC with electric tie straps. The PVC was painted for extra UV protection. It is best keep the wood off the ground, bricks or cinderblocks were used to acheive this at various times. The bottom was lined with wire screen. This cage was heavy and cumbersome to move, but lasted. Our last professional move omitted any yard items, but we found that they took it anyways as they wanted a good recommendation at the completion of the move. This is probably not what you have in mind, but hopefully it gives you some ideas. Good luck.
