Switching providers or canceling cable in the DMV? The box has to go back, and the unreturned-equipment fee is real. Xfinity averages $200 per missing box. Verizon Fios gives you thirty days. Cox routes through UPS but only certain locations accept it. The equipment return finder maps your provider plus your address to the closest authorized drop-off, with the exact paperwork you need to bring. We recommend it because half our install jobs start with someone canceling cable, and the return is the part everyone forgets.
