Default Recycling scrap sky equipment - freepost address

You can send old sky equipment off for recycling rather than chucking it in the landfill. Householders can post old or redundant Sky equipment back to Sky for recycling, free of charge. Simply place the equipment in appropriate packaging, include a note that equipment is for recycling and then address the parcel to:

FREE POST RLUT-GCLR-LBXK
Unipart Technology Logistics
Unit G Swift Park
Old Leicester Road
Rugby
CV21 1DZ


Or - give old or redundant Sky equipment to your Sky engineer during your next service call.

I had the felling that all digiboxes were scrap. They are not good for anything other than Sly, so I would reckon that they are all scrap, if you do not intend to watch Sly.

Very best regards Wez

its okay here the essex county council are to reopen them. let the tax payers pay. well the tax payers are paying anyway. our one in brentwood essex is still used to park outside the post office vans so i assume they useing it for the collections. W H Smiths have taken over the duties of the post office. (not a good idea ). There s rumors that sainsburys wanted to run a post office in some areas. they already wanted to run a library. think a conflict of interest there myself.
