I'm thinking about hiring someone to make an arrangement of a song for a piano and a tuba since I've been unable to find anything to meet my needs on sheetmusicplus.com but how would you even go about in finding someone who would do a good job at it anyway?

A local university or music school that teaches courses in orchestration, scoring or arrangement may be able to refer you to a student, professor or professional. I also find that church music ministries attract talented teachers and students in music with various specialities like this. If you are in the U.S. http://www.craigslist.org is a popular place to network for work related to arts and entertainment. If you have online access and can communicate what you want for your project without meeting in person, it may not matter if you hire locally or not.
Note of caution: If you do hire out, be sure you specify in advance how much remains your work and intellectual property, to avoid future conflict. A written contract or waiver may be helpful. You might contact an intellectual property lawyer. If you are in the U.S. there is a nonprofit group that offers free help if you have questions about art related issues. http://www.talarts.org TALA

word of mouth, ask for some of their other work and if you like that, chances are you'd like what they do for you.
