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.
Susanville is the Lassen County seat and the largest town in northeastern California, and the numbers above show a lively housing market: 20 percent of residents moved in the past year, median rent is $902 and the median home is worth about $235,500. For Sparks and Reno households, it is a regular destination for moves out and in.

Twenty percent of Susanville residents had moved in the past year, a high rate of churn for a town this size, and about 46 percent of households rent. Median age is 37. That produces many small-to-medium moves: apartments, rented houses and first-home purchases. A median year built of 1975 and a 70 percent single-family share fit that picture.

The route from Sparks follows I-580 for the first stretch and then US 395 north for about 64 miles through Doyle, Hallelujah Junction and Honey Lake Valley, finishing on CA 36. Free-flow time is 106 minutes. This is a Nevada-to-California move, so it is interstate and handled under O'Brien's USDOT and MC authority.
Check Caltrans QuickMap for snow, closures and chain controls on the corridor, and leave a margin on winter dates. Moves between Susanville and other California towns, such as Portola, stay inside California and are scheduled under O'Brien's California authority.
At 4,362 feet, Susanville is comparable to Reno in elevation, but it sits farther north and gets cold, snowy stretches in the winter months. Summers are hot and dry. The time of year to move guide explains how to pick a window.

If your next home is beyond Northern Nevada, O'Brien's books the move as a Bekins agent and prices it by weight. See long-distance moving from Susanville, and the packing guide if you pack yourself.
Susanville households often move around school terms and lease ends. Booking early for the first and last weeks of a month and for late spring helps, because those dates fill first. A written estimate lists the services you chose, and the office confirms the date by phone.

Moves within California
O'Brien's Moving & Storage moves households within California under its own authority: Cal PUC T-90973 (as published by O'Brien's). A move between Nevada and California crosses a state line, so it is an interstate move under our federal authority (U.S. DOT No. 30611, MC-109375) instead.

Extremely happy with the moving experience. The moving team showed up on time, friendly and polite. They did a wonderful job moving our boxes and furniture to the new location. We moved a three bedroom home and I could not be more pleased with the employees who assisted with the move. Highly recommend O'Brien moving for your move.
Michelle, thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. We are so happy to hear about the move experience you had with our company and glad to know we met your expectations! It means a lot to us to know that. Thank you for choosing us as your moving partner.

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!!!
