I'd have to bring it to a friend's house, remove the wheels, remove the tires, store the tires there, borrow a car to bring the wheels to the shop, wait a while (by the sounds of it) for the guy to do the coating, then do it all in reverse.
Is there anywhere that will do it all at the shop?

Sure there are shops. But don't expect a good deal, as you need to pay them now for:
Car storage
Labour for dismounting wheels form car
Labour for dismounting tires from wheels
Stripping paint from wheels
Prepping wheels
Powdercoating
Mounting tires to wheels
Mounting wheels to car
Don't know any powdercoaters who would do this, but that's the run down for any typical paint shop. (Fasttrack for example)
