Where do Metuchen residents sell gold for cash?
Metuchen sellers come to Cash 4 Gold Trading Post at 51 Bayard St in New Brunswick, the nearest of our eight stores. Leave the borough on Middlesex Avenue, which is Route 27, and stay with Route 27 as it becomes the Lincoln Highway through Edison and Raritan Avenue through Highland Park. The Albany Street Bridge takes you over the Raritan River, and Bayard Street is a short way into downtown. It is roughly 6 miles.
Metuchen is a borough of under 3 square miles with Edison on every side. It broke away from Raritan Township and incorporated on March 20, 1900, and Raritan Township renamed itself Edison in 1954, so the town Metuchen left now surrounds it completely. The borough grew up around the railroad. Its station on what is now the Northeast Corridor still anchors Main Street, and in the early 1900s the writers and academics who settled here earned it the nickname the Brainy Borough.
That long history shows up in what a Metuchen jewelry box holds: class rings from St. Joseph High School or Metuchen High School, sterling flatware from a wedding decades back, a watch worn on years of train commutes into New York, and the gold that finally comes out of a house when a family sells it after two or three generations.
Which parts of Metuchen and Edison do we serve?
Sellers come from Main Street and the blocks around the train station, from along Middlesex Avenue and Amboy Avenue, and from the residential streets near St. Joseph High School and St. Francis of Assisi Cathedral. Because Edison wraps all the way around the borough, the Edison neighborhoods nearby, such as Menlo Park and Clara Barton, are the same short trip, as is Highland Park on the way down Route 27.
What do we buy from Metuchen sellers?
Condition does not change the price. Gold and silver are paid by purity and weight, so a knotted chain or a ring that no longer fits counts the same per gram as a new one. The analyzer shows 10K at 41.7 percent gold, 14K at 58.5 and 18K at 75, and sterling at 92.5 percent silver. Choose a category to see how we test it.
Selling your gold or borrowing against it?
Both are legal, and they are not the same thing. A pawn loan means the lender keeps your item until you repay the principal and interest, then returns it. We do not offer loans. We purchase, so when you accept an offer, the transaction is finished and the money is yours. Anyone who needs a loan should see a licensed pawnbroker. Anyone ready to sell will find the New Brunswick counter works like this.
Tested Where You Stand
An XRF analyzer checks purity, backed by an acid test, and you watch the result come up on the screen.

What Metuchen sellers find at the Bayard Street counter
HONEST and PROFESSIONAL. They took the time to walk me through each step of the process. They made me a really fair cash offer on the spot. I walked out of their store feeling confident that I got the best price for the diamond jewelry I sold to them. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Can't wait to clear out some more things I have in storage!

A fair cash offer on the spot is the point of a six mile trip: in and out of downtown New Brunswick and back up Route 27 well before the afternoon is over.
Estate jewelry buyers near Metuchen, NJ
A Metuchen house that has stayed in one family for decades holds a lifetime of jewelry, and we go through all of it with you. Gold is grouped by karat so higher purity is never paid at a lower rate, sterling is weighed separately from plate, watches and signed pieces are checked for value above metal, and coins are looked up for collector premium before any melt figure is given.
If there is too much to carry, our estate buyers service can visit the house, and the guide to selling estate jewelry in New Jersey covers probate, executors and what to keep aside.
Diamond buyers near Metuchen, NJ
An engagement ring brought in from Metuchen is priced in two parts. The mounting is tested and weighed like any gold or platinum, and the diamond is graded under magnification for carat, cut, color and clarity, loose or set. Bring a GIA or AGS report if you have one; it helps, but you do not need it. Two separate figures keep a valuable stone from being paid as scrap metal. Read more on the diamond buyers page or in where to sell an engagement ring.

Bring your jewelry and a photo ID to the New Brunswick store, Monday to Friday 10 to 6. Each piece is tested on an XRF analyzer and weighed in front of you, and you are paid on the spot if you accept. No appointment is needed.
How much does Cash 4 Gold Trading Post pay for gold from Metuchen sellers?

Is there a store open on Saturday near Metuchen?
The New Brunswick store is closed Saturday and Sunday. Our Middlesex store at 748 Bound Brook Rd is open Saturday from 10 to 4, about 10 miles from Metuchen by I-287. Call it at (732) 629-7600.
What is the route from Metuchen to the New Brunswick store?
Take Middlesex Avenue, Route 27, out of Metuchen and follow Route 27 along the Lincoln Highway through Edison and Raritan Avenue through Highland Park, then cross the Albany Street Bridge into New Brunswick. It is about 6 miles.
Is Metuchen part of Edison?
No. Metuchen is its own borough, incorporated in 1900, but Edison Township surrounds it on every side, which is why the two get confused. Edison was called Raritan Township until 1954. The New Brunswick store is the same short drive from either one.
Can I sell a St. Joseph or Metuchen High School class ring?
Yes. Most class rings are 10K or 14K, and they are paid on the weight and purity of the gold. The colored stones set in them are usually lab made and add nothing, so the value is in the metal. There is no need to take anything apart first.
Should Metuchen sellers sell gold outright or take a pawn loan?
Ask whether you want the item back. A pawn loan keeps your jewelry as collateral until the loan and interest are paid. We make no loans. We buy, and the cash is yours with nothing to repay. For a loan, a licensed pawnbroker is the right place. To sell, the New Brunswick counter is about 6 miles down Route 27.
