Does anyone use AACargo for shipping convention exhibits (as a small business)

Background: I'm going to be flying on AA to several conferences this year and need to send/bring my oversize (69" total) and overweight (50/70 pound... second one is overweight unless I clear to F before checkin which is unlikely) exhibit cases with me. I'm thinking that using AACargo might be a nice alternative to Fedex/UPS since the cases would then be traveling with me and I don't have to pay some of the ridiculous receiving fees that some of the venues want.

Does anyone have any experience with this kind of usage? The only catch I can think of is that the TSA will apparently want to do a security check of my business which is a home business... not sure what exactly they'll be looking for but I'm sure I'll just *love* having the TSA at my house. Tea, crumpets and full body scans for all!
