I got mine off of Facebook marketplace. Lots of new or lightly used pre-assembled furniture. It was difficult to transport even with an SUV though.

Good call, yeah, I have a big SUV but I can see that any large desk would be an issue to bring home myself. Medium or smaller though maybe!

Sometimes renting a uhaul for $20 to pick up a free or cheap used desk is worth it. Check out your local buy nothing FB group.

The cheapest uhaul is nearly $100 imho once you factor in some mileage fees and the bare minimum misc fees (even waiving insurances)

It's not always that high, when I was picking up futons, I paid $52 total with 24 miles of driving last month. And $37 in April with 9 miles of driving.

I’ve had decent luck with getting people to deliver FB Marketplace furniture purchases, sometimes for an extra $20 and sometimes for free! Definitely worth asking because I drive a Honda Civic and if someone has a truck or van and can get it loaded up, I can definitely help unload.
