# Vault storage in Sparks: how the wooden vaults work

Each O'Brien's storage vault is a wooden container measuring 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft, which works out to 245 cubic feet of space, and vault storage starts from $40 per month. An O'Brien's crew loads the vault, stores it in the Sparks warehouse and delivers your goods when you call.

A vault is a fixed, known amount of storage, which makes it easier to size than a loose room of boxes. Your furniture and cartons go into a wooden vault, the vault goes into the 30,000 sq ft warehouse at 2277 Glendale Ave, and it stays there until you ask for it back. The service is full service, so O'Brien's handles the packing, the loading and the delivery too.

## What a vault is

A storage vault is a wooden box made for moving and storing household goods. O'Brien's vaults measure 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft, and no orientation is assumed, so the number to remember is the 245 cubic feet inside. Vaults are stacked in the warehouse, and the photo gallery shows rows of them with a forklift working the aisle.

Because a vault has a set size, you can count them. A small apartment may fill one or two. A larger home may fill several. The estimator counts for you at the in-home visit, and the [storage vault sizer](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/tools/storage-vault-sizer/) gives a first estimate before anyone visits.

- Wooden vaults, 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft
- 245 cubic feet of space per vault
- Stored in a 30,000 sq ft warehouse in Sparks
- Short-term and long-term storage
- Storage from $40 per month

## How the full-service part works

- The estimator counts the household and writes the vault count on your estimate.
- The crew packs and wraps what needs it, then builds an itemized inventory.
- Goods are loaded into the vaults and brought to the Sparks warehouse.
- Vaults stay in storage for as long as you need them.
- When you are ready, call with about 2 to 3 weeks notice and the goods are delivered.

## The $40 per month starting point

Vault storage starts from $40 per month. The final monthly figure depends on how many vaults you use, and your estimator writes that number on the estimate. Ask what is billed monthly and what is billed once, so the total is clear before you sign.

Packing, loading and delivery are listed as their own lines, since those depend on your home and your delivery address.

## Why 2 to 3 weeks notice

Stored goods are ready to ship with about 2 to 3 weeks notice, which is how far in advance the schedule is booked. The notice gives the warehouse crew time to pull your vaults and the delivery crew time to be on your calendar. Call early when you know your date.

## Vault storage compared with self storage

A vault is handled by the mover from packing to delivery, so you are not hauling your own boxes to a rented unit. If you want to compare the approaches, the guide on [vault storage versus self storage](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/vault-storage-vs-self-storage/) sets them side by side. The shared prep steps are in [how to prepare furniture for storage](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/preparing-furniture-for-storage/).

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!
