I've never played imperial guard, but as an ork player those imperial guard dudes just camp the corner of the table and shoot everything. Not one tank, was moved that battle.

It sounds like you either aren't getting to the other end of the table fast enough or your ladz aren't tough enough to do it. There's this old thread and this video that may help. While I haven't ever played a game, I'd suggest trying to take lots of cheap but heavily armored vehicles (probably battlewagons or better, loosely-equipped looted wagons), along with deffkoptas n' lootas, and then hugging cover(?) and bumrushing the line with your boyz loaded in the transports. Having a KFF and power klaws abound might also be of use. On the other hand, I haven't ever played a game, so go figure.
Tingalz:
if you're playing orks and your opponent is using a vehicle heavy IG list, the only way to win is by physically harming them for being an starfish

I wish there was a game store near me, and I had the money to spend on this stuff. It seems really fun but a game store would make the experience way better. Though it wouldn't help with the whole money problem, it would probably be worse.

It was a orks vs imperial guard appocolyspe game. I was the trukker boys, we had a green tide, cult of speed, and dakka dakka army(they had zapp cannons and stuff). Some friend imperial gaurd player brought a baneblade and got the first initiative roll and wiped out half the green tide. Also forget the space marine armor saves.
