user_366icx Hello there! You reached the best team for help with having the line moved / removed from your property. Thank you for creating the post for my team to help out. Are you currently a customer? If so, we would create a request to have the line relocated. 
If you are not a customer, and plan to not have Xfinity services, the line can be removed. This is also a request that our team can help you with.

Hi, I haven't been a Comcast customer for years, and I have the same situation. I want to remove a Comcast box near my house. The box is about 100 meters from the road (i.e. nowhere near the road). I do not have an account with Comcast, so I can't "Sign in". I can't find "Direct Messaging". How can I request removal of the cable box? I can remove it myself, I guess I just need permission. This is in Botetourt County. I can share my address in private chat. Thank you.
