What is the average weight of a telephone pole?

Answer 1

We were just told, by the City of Austin's utility pole contractor, that the weight of a utility pole (much like a telephone pole) is 700 pounds. Hope this information is of some help to the telephone weight query. - Austin, Texas USA

Answer 2

A typical telephone pole weighs around 1,000 pounds per cubic foot. This weight can vary depending on the type of wood used and the length of the pole.
