fiber line installation in the yard?

If you are referring to the home connection from the main fiber line, the cable is hand buried 6 inches below ground or machine buried. Minimal yard damage either way. 

Hey @cdcasctelac,

We are here to help with your Fiber line installation inquiry. In general lines are buried a minimum of 12" to 24." Anything in the path of the line will have to be dug 12" - 24" and be covered up. It can take 3-4 weeks to get the lines buried after they have been laid out.

Let us know if this helps.

Those boxes are most likely in an easement. And cannot be removed. A call to your local codes or getting a property diagram can confirm the easement.
