Gardnerville Ranchos is a community of about 12,100 people in roughly 4,800 households, the largest in the Carson Valley by population. Around four in five households own their home, and few residents moved in the past year, which points to families who settled in and kept their furniture.
A settled community
The 7.5 percent move rate is one of the lowest of the Carson Valley places we serve. Households that stay for years accumulate furniture, hobby equipment and keepsakes that fill garages.
When one of those households finally moves, or when a family member comes back home, the extra contents need somewhere to go.
Garage overflow and projects
Owners here often store because the house is full, a room is changing purpose, or a remodel needs a clear floor. Moving those pieces to a warehouse can be easier than reorganizing around them.
Vault storage handles furniture, boxes, mattresses and larger items in the same wooden vaults, each 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft.
The longest haul in the Valley
The vault warehouse in Sparks is about 52 miles and 65 minutes from the Ranchos, one of the longer trips in the Carson Valley. Plan the packing day and the pickup with that drive in mind.
The crew loads at your home and brings the vaults to the warehouse in one trip, and the office sets the return date with you.
Short or long stay
Because turnover is low, many Ranchos customers store for months or years, such as while a family member lives abroad or while a house is under construction.
See long-term storage and the long-term storage tips guide.
Pricing and ordering
- Vault storage from $40 per month
- Free in-home estimate
- 10 free heavy-duty boxes with the estimate
- About 2 to 3 weeks notice to ship stored goods
Before the crew arrives
Clear a path to the garage or storage room, and set aside items that stay home. The estimator lists what goes into storage so nothing is missed.
Tell the estimator about anything oversized, such as a workbench, a trailer hitch box or a large mirror, so the crew brings the right wrapping and enough hands for the lift.

What customers say about O'Brien's
Janet M.
I was so impressed with the way the crew handled and packed each piece of furniture for short term storage. They were polite and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a move.

Francie H.
We were referred to O'Brien's Moving and Storage though a friend in Reno. We couldn't be more pleased with the Professionalism and Service. They were quick to set up Luke to come out and give us a quote and scheduled the actual move date right away. Luke was on time for our quote as were the movers on our moving day. All three of the gentlemen who moved us were professional and courteous from start to finish. From the initial phone call to the completion of our move, we felt like we were treated as family. We would definitely use them again and recommend O'Brien's Moving and Storage to our friends in the future.

I will let the movers know about the kind words expressed about them, that will be very satisfying for all of them. We will look forward to any referrals you send our way, thank you for the opportunity!
