Struggling with fiber install - need to send photos

I have been trying to get fiber installed for nearly 30 days now.  This is a newly laid neighborhood and new construction.  So far four appointments have failed:

1. Technician could not find the fiber infrastructure in the street.

2. Cable crew also could not find the fiber infrastructure in the street.

- I looked at old drone footage and found the fiber box! -

3. Cable crew returned and pulled a raw fiber cable to my house.  It is unterminated on both ends.

4. After waiting nearly two weeks, another technician showed up to finish the install.  He said that he could not work with the unterminated cable, and the cable crew would have to return to pull fresh cable with the correct termination.

Appointment #5 is scheduled for this week.  To improve my chance of success, I want to send photos of the street infrastructure ahead of time, so that the correct man can show up with the correct equipment and finish the job.  How can I do this?
