The furniture is picked by a designer, ordered from several vendors, and has to be set up in a unit that may still smell of paint. The work is small compared with a hotel, but the tolerance for mistakes is smaller too. ## At a glance - Staged to the designer's plan - Delivered and set up in the model unit - Leasing center and amenity spaces too - Storage between phases of a development ## What a model-room job looks like A typical order has a living room set, a dining set, bedroom furniture, rugs, art, lamps and accessories, plus pieces for the leasing lobby, a clubhouse or a fitness lounge. Items arrive from different makers over several weeks. The warehouse receives them, checks them against the designer's schedule, and keeps them together. When the unit is released, the crew delivers the full set at once and places it the way the designer drew it. Interior designers who work with O'Brien's on this kind of job can read more on the [designer page](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/commercial-moving/interior-designers/). ## Phased developments Large apartment communities open in phases. The first building may need its model room months before the last one is framed. Because freight can wait in the warehouse, a developer can order the next model's furniture early and release it only when the building passes inspection. ## Between leasing seasons Models get refreshed. Furniture rotated out of a unit can be stored and brought back, and replacement sets can be installed in a single visit. Ask the estimator how a rotation schedule works for your property. - Receive and inspect designer orders - Store model sets between phases - Deliver and place the full set - Remove packing and debris on site ## How to get an estimate Call 775-359-6683 on a weekday between 8 am and 5 pm. Share the designer's schedule, the vendors and their ship dates, the unit address and the date the leasing office opens. Commercial crews work evenings, weekends and holidays by arrangement, so installation can fit around other trades.

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!!! J Jennifer C. August 3, 2023 Customer service, packers, and loaders were very responsive, professional, and did an overall great job. C Christy R. March 25, 2023 All of the above!
