I'm looking to find a unicode character that looks like ≪ or ≫ but rotated 90º and 270º to use in a GUI to signify something can be dragged vertically.

Does anybody know of a character like this?

How about:

︽   PRESENTATION FORM FOR VERTICAL LEFT DOUBLE ANGLE BRACKET (U+FE3D)

︾   PRESENTATION FORM FOR VERTICAL RIGHT DOUBLE ANGLE BRACKET (U+FE3E)

As far as I can see there aren't any symbols that you want. But it might be appropriate for you to use the varios other arrow symbols that are defined starting at U+2190 (←). For example U+21d3 is ⇓. Under Windows you may use the charmap Tool with font set to Arial Unicode. Or have a look here: http://www.utf8-chartable.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl?start=8592
