Abstract Embodiments of the present invention relate to a vehicle for handling a cable drum for a cable. The vehicle comprises at least one lifting arm configured to lift and move a cable drum for holding a cable, and a drum stand for supporting the cable drum such that the cable drum is rotatable about a central axis of the cable drum. The drum stand comprises a base and a pair of arms for supporting the cable drum on opposite ends of the cable drum relative to the central axis. The vehicle further comprises a control unit for controlling the at least one lifting arm and the drum stand. The vehicle is configured such that, in use, the at least one lifting arm lifts and moves the cable drum from a location in proximity of the vehicle to the drum stand, and once the cable drum is supported by the arms of the drum stand, the control unit can control rotation of the cable drum for releasing the cable from the cable drum.
