Data: [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets/acs-5year.html); [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap data, free-flow drive from 2277 Glendale Ave, Sparks](https://project-osrm.org/).

The tree-lined streets near Idlewild Park and the Truckee River hold some of Reno's older houses. The Census puts the median home in this ZIP at about the year 1975, with a median value near $703,700, and about 55 percent of households own. Houses of that age often carry decades of belongings: a basement, an attic, a garage with a second life. When one of them sells, or when a long-time resident decides to downsize, the question of where things go for a few weeks becomes the first practical decision.

## A short drive changes the plan

At 4.9 miles the warehouse is close enough that storage here rarely needs more than one truck day. The crew loads, drives, unloads and stacks in a single visit for most homes, and the estimator gives you a realistic sense of the schedule at the in-home visit.

That closeness also helps on the way back: when the vaults are called out, delivery to a new house across town is a short trip.

## Homes with long histories

A home built around 1975 may hold furniture from several decades. Heirloom dressers, pianos, framed art and glass-front cabinets deserve careful handling, and O'Brien's crews wrap and pad each piece before it goes into a vault. Pianos, fine art and antiques are part of the services described on [specialty moving](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/specialty-moving/).

Wooden vaults 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft are closed and stacked in the 30,000 sq ft warehouse. Because the crew packs and loads them, nobody on your side climbs a ladder or carries a box.

## Reasons Old Southwest owners store

- Listing a house: furniture leaves so the rooms can be photographed and shown
- Remodeling a kitchen or floors in an older house
- Downsizing and deciding what to keep before the sale
- Waiting for a purchase to close after the sale has gone through

## What to ask at the estimate

Tell the estimator how long you expect to store and which pieces you may need sooner. Stored goods are ready to ship with about 2 to 3 weeks notice. The [free in-home estimate](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/free-estimate/) includes 10 free heavy-duty boxes, and for a house with a lot of contents, [how to prepare furniture for storage](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/preparing-furniture-for-storage/) gives a checklist you can start on.

Households choosing between a remodel and a move can read [storage during a remodel](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/full-service-storage/storage-during-a-remodel/) and [storage while you sell](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/full-service-storage/storage-while-selling-a-home/) side by side.

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.

### Owner's reply

Francie, Thank you for this amazing review. The result you have expressed is exactly what we all strive to accomplish. I love that you walked away knowing you are now a part of the O'Brien's family, whenever you need us we are a phone call away! 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!
