About Mike Murphy Salvage
Working in Nipomo, California, Mike Murphy Salvage is an auto salvage and parts site listed in our directory. Listings like this help sellers find a paid drop-off point for scrap material rather than ringing around half a dozen places to find one that takes their volume. The yard has not filed an accepted-materials list with the directory at this time, leaving the intake set unspecified. The directory entry shows a phone line appears in the listing, and operating hours are posted in the directory entry. Both data points reflect what the yard has filed about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for how to reach the site before any drive over with a load. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
