The median home in the Southeast Reno and Hidden Valley ZIP has 4.1 rooms, and two-bedroom homes (about 7,800) are the largest group, so packs here are mid-size and carton-efficient. O'Brien's crews pack by room, and 10 free heavy-duty boxes come with the free in-home estimate.
Southeast Reno and Hidden Valley is a neighborhood of apartments, townhomes and small houses close to the airport and the freeway. The Census figures for this ZIP count 19,348 households, with about 64 percent renting, and a median year built of 1977. It is only about 5 miles and 12 minutes from our yard in Sparks.

Two bedrooms is the typical size
About 7,800 homes in this ZIP have two bedrooms, and another 4,500 have one bedroom, while three-bedroom homes number about 4,500 and four-bedroom homes about 2,100. A 4.1-room median is a one- or two-bedroom home with a kitchen and a living room. Packs here are usually a single day for the crew, and the estimator can often give a ballpark by phone before the in-home visit.
A neighborhood of renters
Only about 36 percent of homes are owner-occupied and about a third are single-family detached. Renters move on lease dates, so packing is often scheduled to the end of the month. Book early for those dates, because many households are moving in the same days.
Older complexes and tight access
About 62 percent of homes here were built before 1980. Older complexes often have narrow stairwells, shared walkways and limited parking, so the crew sizes cartons to the route and parks the truck where it can load most directly. Read how the crew handles apartment and condo moves.

Talk about organized people. I peeked in the truck about an hour into the job and was amazed at how well organized it was and how many of my things had protective coverings. Our bed is a mechanical one and a nightmare to us, but these guys had no issue with it at all. Although I have no desire to ever move again--but if I did, I would be calling these guys for sure!!!
