I checked an online copy of the owner's manual for the 2000 Toyota Sienna. It does not specifically say anything about flat towing the vehicle but it does say that if the vehicle has to be towed then the front wheels need to be off the ground or damage to the transmission can occur.
For this you would use a tow dolly and not a flat tow set up. For a tow dolly we have # RM-2050-1. there are also some rental places that can rent a tow dolly. I also recommend speaking with a technician at a Toyota dealership for additional information on using a tow dolly with this vehicle since the owner's manual does not offer much information.
