Sparks is home. O'Brien's office, truck yard and 30,000 sq ft warehouse are on Glendale Ave, and the company has been family owned since 1941. Sparks has about 110,000 residents and 42,400 households, and the 3,305 who arrived from other states in the past year are part of a city that keeps growing and keeps moving. Book on our [long-distance moving](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/long-distance-moving/) page. ## A city that stays and leaves About 60 percent of Sparks homes are owner occupied, with a median age of 37.2 and 15.4 percent of residents having moved in the past year. These numbers fall between the busier Reno and the quieter Spanish Springs. A Sparks long-distance move is often a family changing states for work, with a house on the market and a closing date to meet. The 773 residents who came from abroad also make Sparks a city where international moves are common. Ask about O'Brien's international moves through Bekins and partner carriers. ## The shortest drive in the company The yard is about 6.5 miles, 14 minutes by SR 445, from the middle of Sparks. The estimator's drive to your door is short, and so is the crew's approach on loading day. The in-home estimate is free, and 10 free heavy-duty boxes come with it. Before a long-distance move the crew makes an itemized inventory and condition report. The itemized estimate is in writing and long-distance moves are priced by weight. ## Storage next door Sparks households can keep goods in wooden vaults, 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft, in the warehouse that is minutes from home. Vault storage starts at $40 per month, and stored goods ship with about 2 to 3 weeks notice.
