10 years ago or so when I used one, they weren't exactly companies. They present as much, glitzy website, say "we" and "our" a lot, and in the end it's a couple people working out of a basement acting as brokers. They put info on a national board of sorts, and truckers look through it and see what might fit their schedule / location / what they are willing to take as payment.

See if you can find something local, and if so if you can talk to them. The idea will be to say where shipping from, where to, and see if they have advice on a good price for it. If it's too low your car will sit forever. Then they'll get it into the database and get their cut when it does finally ship.

This is what I figured out from talking to several companies back then. I sort of doubt it changed.
