Data: [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets/acs-5year.html); [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap data, free-flow drive from 2277 Glendale Ave, Sparks](https://project-osrm.org/).

Washoe Valley lies between Reno and Carson City, with about 3,300 people and 1,300 households. The Census puts the median home at around 1979 and the value near $609,700. Properties are often larger, with outbuildings and long driveways. A valley with that much space has storage needs that run bigger than a typical subdivision, and a drive that makes the crew's single-trip haul worth more.

## A longer drive from the yard

At 19.9 miles and 31 minutes, a trip to the warehouse from Washoe Valley is a real commitment. Rather than shuttling loads, the household has one scheduled visit: the crew packs, loads, drives and stacks. The estimator times it around your move date.

Because the trip is long, the plan matters: the estimator counts what is going to storage, what goes to the next home and what can be sold or donated first.

## Bigger properties, more to sort

Valley properties with sheds and detached garages hold furniture, tools and equipment. Household goods go into wooden vaults 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft; the estimator tells you which items fit that system. Vaults are closed and stacked by forklift in the 30,000 sq ft warehouse at 2277 Glendale Ave.

An inventory lists each vault's contents.

## Washoe Valley reasons to store

- Selling a larger property and moving into a smaller home
- Remodeling an older house built around 1979
- A relocation with the sale still pending
- Second-home furniture between seasons

## Planning

See [seasonal and second-home storage](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/full-service-storage/seasonal-and-second-home-storage/) and [estate and downsizing storage](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/full-service-storage/estate-and-downsizing-storage/) for common patterns. The [free in-home estimate](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/free-estimate/) includes 10 free heavy-duty boxes and an itemized estimate. Stored goods ship with about 2 to 3 weeks notice.

## Preparing a property for the crew

A valley property may have several buildings to clear. Make a short list of what sits in each one, mark the items that travel to storage, and tell the estimator about gates, gravel drives and uneven ground. That list becomes the start of the inventory, and the crew uses it to arrive with the equipment each building calls for.

## Delivery when the stay ends

Vaults can return to Washoe Valley, to a home in Carson City or Reno, or to another state through the Bekins network. Tell the estimator which it will be so the written plan covers the return trip as well as the first one.

We were referred to O'Brien's Moving and Storage though a friend in Reno. We couldn't be more pleased with the Professionalism and Service. They were quick to set up Luke to come out and give us a quote and scheduled the actual move date right away. Luke was on time for our quote as were the movers on our moving day. All three of the gentlemen who moved us were professional and courteous from start to finish. From the initial phone call to the completion of our move, we felt like we were treated as family. We would definitely use them again and recommend O'Brien's Moving and Storage to our friends in the future.

### Owner's reply

Francie, Thank you for this amazing review. The result you have expressed is exactly what we all strive to accomplish. I love that you walked away knowing you are now a part of the O'Brien's family, whenever you need us we are a phone call away! I will let the movers know about the kind words expressed about them, that will be very satisfying for all of them. We will look forward to any referrals you send our way, thank you for the opportunity!

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.

### Owner's reply

Thanks for the great review Greg! We really appreciate you taking the time to do that for us. We look forward to working with you again!
