Figures for ZIP 89502 as a whole.

Data (read 2026-10-19): U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates; OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap data, free-flow drive from 2277 Glendale Ave, Sparks; USGS Elevation Point Query Service.

ZIP 89502 stretches from the airport through Hidden Valley and the older streets between Kietzke Lane and the south edge of Sparks. It is more than 19,000 households, most of them in apartments, duplexes and older single-story homes. The area sits at about 4,395 feet, a little lower than our warehouse, so it is among the milder spots in the valley and one of the quickest to clear after a storm.

Apartments are most of the market

Only about one third of the homes here are detached houses. The rest are apartment complexes, townhomes and duplexes, and the median build year is 1977. Complexes of that age often have outdoor stairs, long walks from the parking lot to the door and limited loading space. The estimator asks which floor, whether there is an elevator and how far the truck can park, since those answers set the crew size. See apartment and condo moves for what to ask your manager.

The median household income in this ZIP is about $65,000, and the median home value is near $413,000. Many households are budget-conscious, so the free in-home estimate matters: it is itemized and shows each part of the job before you decide.

A short, simple drive

The route from Glendale Avenue is 5.3 miles on city streets with no long freeway leg. That makes this area easy to schedule, and a two-trip day, with the first load going to a new address and the second to a vault in Sparks, is realistic.

Turnover and lease dates

About 17 percent of residents moved in the past year, and about one third of householders moved in during 2020 or later. Lease dates cluster at the start and end of each month, and the weekend before the first is busy. Booking even a week ahead gives you a wider choice of days.

Offices and shops near the airport

The airport area also has small businesses, warehouses and offices. Commercial crews work evenings, weekends and holidays by arrangement. See office moving in Southeast Reno and warehouse and industrial moves.

Pack a little or a lot

A one-bedroom apartment may only need help with the kitchen and the framed pieces. Partial packing and box packing only are available, along with full packing. Short-term vault storage from $40 per month is on the storage page.

3 O'Brien movers came down from Reno to South Lake Tahoe to assist our company moving a lot of big furniture out of a large warehouse. They showed up on-time, were friendly, and were professional and got the job done quickly and diligently. Will definitely use them again.
