Oxnard is the 22nd largest city in California with a population of around 200 thousand. The city lies on the south coast of the state with cities such as Ventura and Thousand Oaks being close to it.
The city is popular for its fertile soil, which contributes highly to the growth of the city’s agricultural sector. It’s also a gateway status to Channel Islands, and has numerous beaches, sand dunes, and historical sites such as the Mullin Automotive Museum.
In addition to agriculture and transport, other active sectors in Oxnard include manufacturing, tourism, energy, high tech, and finance.
Selling scrap metal is also a good side business to pursue if you are in this city. The city has many scrap yards, and most of them will offer great prices for scrap metals, valuables, and gold. Ask around for advice before you go to a yard, because some of them don’t have the best customer service. Besides that, make sure you know the laws about selling scrap metals in California so that you know what you need to carry and how scrap yards operate.
We reviewed several scrap yards in the city, and we found several we can recommend. If you are on the northern side of the city, or around Rio Lindo, scrap yards you can go to include Acme Auto Wreckers on Cortez Street, Migoz Junk Removal Oxnard on Alvarado Street, and GCS Junk Removal on Ventura Boulevard. Avoid Rhino Recyling, people complain a lot about their pricing.
Scrap yards on East Village include SA Recycling on Mountain View Avenue and Del Norte Recycling Center on Del Norte Boulevard.
If you live around Fremont South, Kamala Park, or Gal Gisler, we recommend Apex Auto Parts on Pacific Avenue and Dynacorn Autobody Parts on S A Street in Down Center.
Cash for gold places you can get good prices for your valuables include Gold & Jewelry Emporium on 714 North Ventura Road and Saul’s Loan & Jewelry on South Oxnard Boulevard.
