Gold Coast Recycling
5275 Colt St & Sperry Ave
A 75,000-square-foot facility on 7.8 acres on Colt Street in Ventura, Gold Coast Recycling and Transfer Station opened in 1989 as one of only four sites permitted in California that year under AB 939, and it now processes more than 90,000 tons of recyclables annually for Ventura County cities including Fillmore, Ojai, Camarillo, Thousand Oaks, and Ventura, plus Carpinteria in Santa Barbara County. It works with Harrison Industries on curbside, roll-off, and construction and demolition programs. Residents and businesses self-haul trash to the transfer station, including out-of-county loads. The buy-back center pays for CRV aluminum cans, plastics 1 through 7, bimetal cans, and glass, and takes non-CRV glass and plastic for free. Newspaper, cardboard, paper, bulk mail, and magazines are accepted but not currently paid for.
