Removal of Direct TV Satellite Dish

Good morning, I know longer have Direct TV service. I want to have the Direct TV satellite dish removed from my back yard. How do I go about having Direct TV retrieve this satellite dish? 

Thank you.

DirecTV will never retrieve the dish. Upon install you own it. All that gets returned are the receiver/client boxes (until status changes to non-returnable models).

 

So you remove the dish yourself or find someone to do it for you. If you remove it, leave the mounting plate to avoid leaks. Main part of dish recycle with metal, but the LNB (the "eye") goes with electronics.
