Post by Arrowhire »

Does anyone know of a company who will remove a large dish from the roof for free, and take it away?

If you see any vans driving around with scrap metal etc on them flag them down, they will take dish away for free

Exactly what happened with us, guy driving around looking for scrap, got his ladder out lowered the dish on a rope and away, I got on the roof later and sealed the bolt holes. 8-)
I started off with nothing and have most of it left !

Apologies for hijacking this thread but has anybody recently been able to get their satellite dish removed please? I know the scrap dealers do removals but is there anyone else? Mine is an old 2.7 metre dish. Thanks in advance.

We had a 2.7 metre dish at our previous house here, a passing scrap dealer was happy to remove it- with no charge They usually drive a small truck type vehicle which will accommodate such items.

Better to get someone like John who is used to doing this. If it’s on a roof, they need to bring them down carefully - usually with straps. I’ve seen a few very badly cut leaving a problem on the roof and scrapes all down the side of the building!
