It all depends on where you need the item shipped to. Are you talking across town, across the country, or to another country?
For across town, rent a U-Haul.
For across the country, look up trucking companies like Yellow Freight, Overnite Transport, CCX, FedEx Freight, etc.
For freight going to another country, contact a freight broker or a freight forwarder. I believe FedEx and UPS can route this as well. Or try BAX Global, DHL, etc.

WE shipped a large item once by bus. It was cheaper than the freight companies and got there just fine. Just a thought!
