There are no companies. Being an Extra is just a right-time, right place sort of thing. It's up to you to seek out filming locations and then contact the 'casting director' or show up on the set. Extras usually don't get paid a whole lot, if any. That's why there's no 'company' or 'agent for extras' because they would ultimately make their money by getting a percentage of YOUR SALARY. Example, the extras for 'Night Of The Living Dead' were paid one dollar and got a free t-shirt. No company or agent can pay their bills by making 10% of a t-shirt. So you're pretty much on your own. You could contact several 'casting agents/directors' and let them know you ARE available and if you can get to the filming locations, they'll call you when you're needed. :-)
