Can I move a 12'X16' shed?

I have a 5 acre lot I was thinking of selling and buying a different one about 5 miles away. I built a nice little hunting cabin/shed that is 12X16. Can I put this on a trailer and move it? I'm fine as far as the route because it's on dirt roads in the same subdivision.

It's built with 2"X4" studs 12" OC and 2"X6" home made roof trusses and 2"X10" floor joists.

I was thinking I could jack it up and put it on flat bed trailer and move it or should I just try to get a little extra for the lot and build a new one?
 
You can buy pre assembled sheds and have them delivered. The one I have is 10x20. We built it, but only because the truck could not fit back there to drop it off.
 
We moved one about the same size.
We just used a loader, ran straps under it and used 2x4's as brases to hold 4" straps in place and lifted it onto a trailer. We moved it 40 miles this way and then unloaded it the same way.
