800'×4?!...id like to see that put in a f-150...
Its almost cost effective to run a excavator yourself to pull out and hire a end-dump to run it to the shop. Are you a gc or ec?
Also consider complete scope of job- any demo company on site might have written dibs on it- beware.

Have 4 #750 XHHW conductors that need to be removed from an underground 5". Not sure if it's RGS or PVC( would that matter?).

The run spans from a distribution center through two manholes then into another distribution center.

It's about 300' between manholes and about 800' total.

Seems pretty straightforward although you never know how long it'll take to remove the wire. Could be easy or very tough, correct?

Was told need reel truck to pull it out at the manholes.

When chopping this cable up for removal from the site( we can keep :) ) how big of pieces do they usually cut it up into?

When the pulling the cable out would you tie a rope the end so essentially your also pulling a rope through to leave for later pulling of conductors?

Any other consideration for doing this?
Thank you.

How did it go? Did you get the contract?
 
Whatever you do, do not, I repeat, do not leave scrap piles of 750 copper sitting around, REMOVE FROM SITE DAILY.
