<h2>Shipping your return equipment</h2>
When you cancel your service, replace equipment, or remove equipment from your account, you’ll need to return your <em><strong>leased</strong></em> equipment in good condition to avoid a non-return fee or damaged equipment fee. <strong><em>Owned</em></strong> equipment can be kept.<br><br><p>Each return is different, but here are some more details on what you might need to return and what you can keep.</p>
<br><h3>What do I need to return?</h3>
<strong><em>Leased</em></strong> receivers, remote controls, and power cords – you can tell if your receiver is leased by checking <a href="https://www.directv.com/accounts/satellite/billing?tabValue=viewBill" target="_self">your bill</a> for any monthly lease charges (e.g. “Device lease fee”, “TV access fee”).<br><br><h3>What can I keep?</h3>
<em><strong>Owned</strong></em> receivers, satellite dishes and accessories like mount and pole.<br><br><br><h3>How do I return my equipment?</h3>
<p>In some cases, we’ll send you a return kit in the mail. If you received a return kit, simply pack up the equipment you&#39;re sending back to us, attach the prepaid shipping label to the return kit, and give the kit to your mail carrier or <a href="https://tools.usps.com/find-location.htm" target="_blank">drop it off at a post office</a>.</p>
<p>If you have leased equipment but didn’t receive a return kit, bring your unboxed equipment and account number to any <a href="https://local.fedex.com" target="_blank">FedEx Office Print and Ship Center</a> location. You&#39;ll get a receipt that confirms your return. It’s fast, easy, and no packing is necessary.</p>
<br><br><h3>How do I swap equipment?</h3>
Either drop off the unboxed equipment that is being returned at a <a href="https://local.fedex.com" target="_blank">FedEx Office Print and Ship Center</a> or use the materials that come in the new equipment’s box to pack up your equipment. Then <a href="https://tools.usps.com/find-location.htm" target="_blank">drop it off at a post office</a>.<br><br><h3>Recycle your equipment-go green with DIRECTV</h3>
<p>If your device isn’t leased and you’d like to recycle it, check out our <a href="https://www.directv.com/support/recycle" target="_blank">DIRECTV Recycle</a> page for help recycling your equipment. Just enter the requested information to ensure your equipment can be recycled—if not, you could be charged a non-return fee. If your equipment can be recycled, we’ll provide a shipping label.</p>
