Do you take old DTV Dish or do I throw away?

When I moved into my condo there was a direct tv dish on the back porch.  I'd like to get rid of it.  Do you take it back or can I just get throw it away? 

thank you

The dish is metal so you can recycle it but the LNB (the eye on the end of the arm) is e waste, you own the dish to do what you want.

Only receiver/client boxes are sent back. Everything else, including receiving dish becomes property of the account owner once installed.

Majority of dish is just simple metal recycling. The LNB (the "eye") goes with electronics.
