Sun Valley is a community north of Sparks and Reno, along SR 443, with 6,922 households in the Census estimates for 2020-2024. About 75 percent of households own their homes, and the median home value of about $349,100 is one of the lowest among the neighborhoods we list. It is about 7 miles and 13 minutes from our yard in Sparks. ## A mix of home types With 43.5 percent of homes single-family detached, the rest of Sun Valley housing is attached units, small buildings and other home types such as duplexes. That variety shows in the packing plan. A small attached home has limited closets, a house has a garage, and an apartment has stairs. The estimator asks about all of these during the in-home visit. ## The three-bedroom center About 4,000 Sun Valley homes have three bedrooms, about 1,700 have two and about 1,200 have four. At a median of 5.5 rooms, the typical household has a kitchen, a living area, three bedrooms and a yard. Most packs are a day or two, with the kitchen first and the garage or shed last. ## Yards, sheds and outdoor items Many homes in Sun Valley have yard space, and with it come sheds, tools, grills and outdoor furniture. Those items are bundled or boxed the way the estimate lists them, and anything awkward such as a trampoline or a swing set should be mentioned at the visit. ## A local move that stays close Sun Valley is near both Reno and Sparks, and many Sun Valley moves stay within the Truckee Meadows. For those, the crew can pack and load on the same day. See [local moving](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/local-moving/) for what the day looks like. ## What to expect on the estimate - Each room and outbuilding listed - Packing level for each space - Boxes and supplies noted for rooms you pack - An itemized written estimate ### Sources (checked October 18, 2026) - [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets/acs-5year.html) - [FMCSA, Protect Your Move](https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/protect-your-move) ### Free in-home estimate - An O'Brien's estimator walks through your home - A written, itemized estimate - 10 free heavy-duty boxes, yours to keep [How our estimates work](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/how-our-estimates-work/) ### Visit or call the office 2277 Glendale Ave, Sparks, NV 89431 [775-359-6683](tel:+17753596683) | Monday to Friday | 8:00 am to 5:00 pm | | --- | --- | | Saturday and Sunday | Closed | [Get my free estimate](#estimate) ### Related - [Professional packing services](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/packing/) - [Partial packing and box-packing-only service](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/packing/partial-packing/) - [Local moving in Reno, Sparks and Carson City](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/local-moving/) - [Movers in Sun Valley](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/sun-valley/) Nearby ## The same service in nearby towns - [Packing services in Lemmon Valley](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/lemmon-valley/packing/) - [Packing services in Golden Valley](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/golden-valley/packing/) - [Packing services in Cold Springs](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/cold-springs/packing/) - [Packing services in Verdi](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/verdi/packing/) - [Packing services in Washoe Valley](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/washoe-valley/packing/) - [Packing services in Reno](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/reno/packing/) - [Movers in Sun Valley](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/sun-valley/) In Sun Valley ## More services in Sun Valley - [Storage for Sun Valley households](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/sun-valley/storage/) - [Senior moves and downsizing in Sun Valley](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/areas/sun-valley/senior-moving/) Answers ## Packing services in Sun Valley questions Still have a question?

June 25, 2025 The crew worked extremely hard and treated our belongings with care. Customer service was outstanding leading up to, during, and after move. Thank you! S Sonia P. August 4, 2023 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!!!
