Can I purchase the utility easement in my backyard from the utility company?
If the easement isn’t being used by the utility company they may release it. In the case of very old easement rights in Massachusetts there are liaisons at the utility companies who can research an old easment for you and they will release it in rare cases. There is a fee of at least several hundred dollars.
