Does anyone have any experience with getting utility boxes relocated? I'm building a house and I have three boxes smack dab in the middle of my yard. I would like to get them possibly moved to the corner. Is this even possible? If so what would it cost me or should the builder help?

You will probably have to deal directly with the utility companies. They probably have an easement allowing them to place the boxes in it. They may or may not be willing to move them at your cost, it depends on how customer friendly they are. The builder probably can't do anything about them and the utility company probably won't let anyone else do the work of moving them. It could be pretty darn expensive also.
