A method of manufacturing a coil (1) of a continuous flexible object (2), su ch as cable and line, and enveloping the coil to form a parcel (27) for delivery to a user, said object (2) being coiled onto an axially open, cylindrical sleeve (28) to produce said coil. According to the invention the sleeve (28) is provided with two protective rings (29, 30) and is brought to be fixed by a first tool (9) so that the sleeve (28) is firmly clamped between two parallel side supports (10, 11) and centered by centering elements (24) of the side supports, whereby a first rotatable unit (36) is formed. Th e cable or line (2) is attached to said first unit (36) and the unit (36) is brought to rotate in a coiling machine (3) so that the cabl e or line is formed to said coil (1). When the cable or line has been cut, a protective casing (40) is brought to surround the coil (1) between the protective rings (29, 30), and a plurality of bands (4l) are brought to surround the sleeve (28) from the inside thereof, the protective rings (29, 30), the protective casing (40) and the coil (1) enclosed within these parts, without engagement with the si de supports (10, 11), after which the bands (41) are thightened and their ends joined in a strong joint to form said parcel (27). A system is also described for handling the cable or line which is prepared and enveloped in the manner described, as well as too ls of the structure described above and cable or line parcels manufactured according to said method.
