HELP Best way to ship 160 lbs. speaker?

Hi,
I searched this forum and can't really get a clear answer on what is the best way to ship a package over 150 lbs. Im disabled so I'm only looking for a freight service that can pick up from a residential and deliver to a residential. I know Bax Global and FedEx freight service do not pick up in residential. I also contacted UPS Logistics and they won't let me insured it for more than $100 they said because it is used item. I tried to search "Rodeway trucking or Rhodeway trucking" but no results. Audiogoners, Pls. help.
Thanks,
Royy

Roadway is one. Unishippers.com is hard to beat.

Thanks everybody. I decided to let somebody remove one speaker from the flight case and box it separate and let UPS pick it up. Here are the quotes from different carriers for 18 X 27 X 32 and weighs 160lbs. via ground shipping
Vintage Transport $530
Roadway Express $558
Unishippers is going to call me back. I have a feeling that it's going to be close to the prices above.
UPS is going to cost me $170 for both packages.

BTW.4yanx, I'm temporarily disable due to an accident.
Thanks for your thought.
