For free. Most of them (at least those that also serve businesses) would
be glad to subcontract a local installer and charge $80-$90/hr + trip
charge for the job. This will make it one very expensive cable run very
quickly.

some cable companies use special cable quad shield, that cant use
standard connectors.

The installer would have to be a real jerk to not go (slightly) out of his
way and find a matching connector he should already be carrying on his
truck for repairs and such. But you make a valid point: if OP is not
comfortable with terminating (connectorizing) the cable, he should leave
the ends open for the CableCo installer to terminate. They may refuse to
pull the cable due to time, effort, insurance etc. but they will never
object to terminating one that's already pulled.

DEFINETELY DO NOT USE RG59!!!!!

RG6/U is the way to go.
