Overland Park is a city situated in the Kansas City metropolitan area in the eastern side of Kansas State. The city is the second most populous city in the state with an approximate population of around 200k people. The city lies on the western side of Kansas City, and the eastern side of Olathe.
If you are planning to move to this city or visit it, this is a great place to be. The city has excellent schools, good infrastructure, and numerous historical attractions such as the Deanna Rose Children’s Farmstead and the Oak Park Mall.
The economy is also strong and stable. It has a low employment rate, which makes it a good place for most startups. A good example is selling scrap metal. These materials are in constant demand in this city since manufacturing facilities are always sourcing out for these materials on a regular basis.
Overland Park is also home to plenty of scrap yards, most of which have a good reputation.
We did our investigation to find out some of the best facilities and some that we would recommend are below.
If you are around Missouri Kansas, you can go to Overland Park Drop Off Recycling Center on 11921 Hardy Street. The facility will take most types of scrap metal and you can call before going to know whether they will take the materials that you have.
Advantage Metals Recycling is yet another place to go if you are around Armourdale. They have two facilities here - one on 12th Street, and another on South Packard Street. Pick-n-Pull and Allied U-Pick-It both on 12th Street around this area (Armourdale) are also recommendable scrap metal dealers.
We also found that the city has good cash for gold places. A few we can recommend are We Buy Gold on 7620 Metcalf Avenue East, Pinnacle Jewelry Buyers on 6300 West 143rd Street #230, and Precious Metals and Gems on 8230 Metcalf Avenue.
