The easiest way to transport a Leaf from another city would be to simply drive it. 70 miles can be driven in one go. If it's farther, drive (say) 50 miles, stop, and plug it in somewhere to recharge. Most Nissan dealers have free 240v charging, and around Portland I imagine there are many public EVSE charging stations that will "fill 'er up" in a few hours. In a pinch, any 120v outlet will do (but will take ~8 hours if it's almost empty). Visit friends, go to a park, read a book, watch a movie, etc. to kill time. Then drive on to the next stop.
Yes, even a Leaf with a bad battery is likely to go near that distance. Even if it does need a charge, it should not take long to add the needed miles.
Another option, useful for moving a car far beyond it's range, is to flat tow relatively short distance segments while regening.
