user_dcepze, Hi there! Thanks for taking the time out of your Saturday to reach out. I’m glad you asked ahead of time, especially with construction planning involved.

Relocating a cable pedestal or utility box due to driveway construction is possible, but it does require coordination with the construction field team, since these pedestals are part of the outside network infrastructure. You've come to the right spot. We are a team of experts who specialize in resolving pedestal relocation requests such as this over social media. We can help. Here’s how the process typically works:

  • A site review is needed to assess the current pedestal location and the proposed new placement. This visit costs $100 and is non-refundable
  • The request is routed to the construction/engineering team, not the standard home service
  • Depending on scope, permits, easements, or local approvals may be required
  • Once approved, the team schedules the relocation work

How does this sound so far?

If its approved to move the pole, do I have to pay an additional cost?

Thank you for reaching out here with your question. There can be one time charges incurred for those types of construction work. You would be informed ahead of time if there are any costs associated with moving that pole.
