Did you check with JEA/Comcast/ATT/Etc?

^was thinking the same thing. There is a JEA place east of 295 and south of Commonwealth that may have some. When your in there ask them about that surplus JEA house across from Exchange Club Island. We can raft up over to it.

Might also check at the JEA facility just off Philips Highway on Emerson.

Might be worth the drive - there are literally hundreds of these in a lot at Reynolds Industrial Park in Green Cove Springs near the Airstrip & Dragway.  You might check with the office there (not sure the business name) prior to loading into your truck or trailor though.  Also, plenty more in the business park on the north side of GCS (Harbor Road / before Magnolia Point).

I haven't had any luck with JEA for months.

Blizz, do you have a contact at Reynolds?

Most companies recycle those spools since they can be reused.

I don't - looking at the map it MUST be Guardian Cable Systems & the other location is GCS Electric.
