How to ship BIG equipment at moderate cost?


I am moving from Missouri to Florida and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on a cheap/safe way to move A/V equipment? I'll need to move a Runco 58 inch rear projection T.V., one pair of Martin Logan Odysseys, one pair of Martin Logan Scenarios, One ML Theater Center, and One Paradigm Servo 15 sub. I have all the original packaging except for the Runco T.V. The big name movers charge an arm and a leg to ship this kind of equipment along with house furniture etc. (Many charge per pound or say they need to construct special crates etc.) Are there any independant companies out there that can do it safely for less? At the very least I'll need to find a way to ship the Odysseys and the Runco.

I recently shipped a large digital piano from Seattle to Boston and was very happy with BAX Global. Their price was far better than UPS or FedEx, didn't have the size limitations and the service was very good.

The only limitation is that, as a result of 9/11 considerations they would pick up only at a business address, not from a home. I brought to boxed piano to the loading dock at work and they made the pickup from there.
