You can use transportreviews.com to evaluate most any carrier. Can search by name and read their feedback. I found it very helpful in deciding who to use.
From my own experience, I'd used DAS (Dependable Auto Shippers) who proved to be a royal pain. I was VERY unhappy with the experience.
There are also some guys on this forum that haul for hire and all seem to know what they're doing.
I've also used 4 Corners Transport Services out of Washington state. They are a broker. You can talk to many people who will say never use a broker. I've used them 4 times now. Each time I was very happy with the service. It's a husband and wife team and they manage their hauls very well. They have a web site that you can obtain a quote through quite quickly. I found their pricing very competitive. One important thing to consider is payment. Many brokers (and many big name haulers) want full payment up front. The first time I tried that the load went from "We can pick it up next Thursday" to "We think we can get there in a couple weeks" once I gave them payment. I played hell getting my money back.
With 4 Corners, when your load is scheduled with a hauler, you pay only the broker fee to them. You then pay the hauler in cash, in person. I've found this a great motivator for the haulers.
