Six rooms is the median, which means half of West Carson City homes have six rooms or more. About 78 percent are single-family detached houses, and about 72 percent are owner-occupied. These are homes where people have lived for a while and the cupboards show it. ## Where the extra rooms go A sixth room is often a den, a sewing room, a home office or a guest room that has become storage. Each of those rooms hides a different packing job: files and electronics, fabric and craft supplies, or boxes that have been closed since the last move. Your estimator opens each door during the visit, so the estimate reflects the real count. Rooms past the sixth usually include a dining room with a china cabinet, and that is the single hardest piece to pack. The crew wraps china and glassware one piece at a time and stands plates on edge, a technique covered in the guides to [packing china](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/how-to-pack-china/) and [packing glasses](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/how-to-pack-glasses/). ## Houses with garages and yards With nearly four in five homes being detached houses, the garage and the patio are part of most West Carson City packs. Tools, hoses, outdoor chairs and grills all need boxing or wrapping. The guide to [patio and outdoor furniture](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/how-to-pack-patio-furniture/) explains what to bring in first. - Tool chests and loose hardware in small cartons - Patio sets wrapped and padded - Hanging clothes in wardrobe cartons - Artwork in picture cartons ## A full pack for a larger home A full pack of a six-room house is a multi-day job for a crew. The packers work room by room, label every carton by room and keep a count, so the unload at the new address goes room by room as well. Read about the [full packing service](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/packing/full-packing/). ## Pieces that need a crate Large mirrors, glass tabletops and valuable art may need a custom crate instead of a carton. See [custom crating](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/packing/custom-crating/). Pianos, pool tables and similar pieces are covered on the [specialty moving](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/specialty-moving/) page. ## From Sparks to West Carson City The drive from our Sparks warehouse to ZIP 89703 is about 31 miles and 43 minutes via I-580 and the US 395 business route.

September 28, 2025 The two employees showed up on time and were very polite and ready to work. Our quote was 8 hours and they finished in 5 hours. Office staff checked in prior to move and confirmed all details and check in after move to make sure everything was taken care of. Would use this company again for sure! ### Owner's reply Laurie, Thank you for the awesome review! We are glad to hear everything went smoothly, and you were satisfied with the service. We want to also thank you for your business we appreciate you! N Nicole B. 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!!! ## Get your free, in-home moving estimate An estimator visits, walks through everything and gives you a written, itemized estimate.
