Right to move in Montreal used old 35 mm film reels to hold the housing. We've never had much trouble selling new housind because it's like a dollar a yard wholesale and most people would rather use new than dig through old.

reel it around a wheel without a tire. Lock the wheel into the wall and re-spool the housing when empty..

Has anyone figured out a good way to dispense new housing in bulk?  A new set of cables / housing on a bike makes a huge difference -- but I don't think people realize how much this costs and take it for granted.  We can of course try to throw volunteers / staff that we don't have at the situation, but I am hoping that there is a way were we could show the cost of housing as they pull it out.  Just like gas at the gas pump.
 
I was looking at this rope application as a possible solution.....
