I need to move a couch which is 82 inches or so long. I was thinking of renting a sienna to get this done. I should be able to remove the seats and put in the couch. Can anyone tell me the length without the back seats, so I can see if it will fit?

Fold the third row and remove the second row and the Sienna will fit a 4'x8' sheet of plywood or drywall flat in the back. The length of your couch should fit with a foot to spare.

Yep. Plywood is 48"x96", plus the Sienna is more like 53" wide.
 
You may be able to fit two of those coaches.

This post got me curious, so I went out with a tape measure on our 2008 LE. Exactly 48" wide as measured at the narrowest point (on the floor between the two rear wheels), and exactly 96" from the rear door to the front seats. It's almost as if it was designed that way.

I'm curious, where is the narrowest point? I guess I could look at mine.
 
Maybe the 53" measure was in the cargo area or the opening.

There is a point where the third row seats sit, right at the floor level that juts out a bit and defines the narrowest point. I know from carrying plywood sheets that is just exactly the width of a sheet at that point although it is wider everywhere else back there.

I bought some lattice panels that were 4'x8' and they fit in easily. I didn't even remove the seats - I just laid them on top of the 2nd and 3rd rows, with the seats folded half way.
 
Lattice is flexible though, plywood isn't. I bet you could fit in plywood the same way, though.

I need to move a double bed. Can I use a Toyota Sienna to move it?

With room to spare. I moved a queen and a 2-piece King (no box spring) on different occasions.
 
You have a flat floor that is 53" x 96".
 
A full size bed is about 54" x 75", but you can lean it against a wall diagonally and get much more than 52".
 
Here are other bed sizes for reference, from wiki:
 
Twin or Single 39" × 75"
Twin or Single - Extra Long 39" x 80"
 
Three Quarter 48" x 75"
 
Double 54" × 75"
Double or Full - Extra Long 54" x 80"
 
Queen 60" × 80"
California Queen 60" x 84"
Olympic Queen 66" x 80"
 
King 76" × 80
California King 72" x 84"
Super King 99" x 80"
