Sixty days for both

The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles says new residents have 60 days to apply for a vehicle title or submit a Request for Title, and 60 days to obtain an Indiana license if they hold a valid license from another state. Both come from the BMV's new Indiana residents page.

Bring your Nevada license, the title or registration and proof of residency to a BMV branch.

A low flat rate, plus county taxes

The Indiana Department of Revenue lists 2.95 percent for 2026, with 2.90 percent scheduled for 2027. Counties levy a separate local income tax on top. The state sales tax is 7 percent, and Indiana has no local sales tax.

Nevada has no state personal income tax, so wages will be taxed in Indiana, but at a lighter rate than most of the states a Nevadan might choose.

Housing and flows

Indiana's median home value is 218,200 dollars, its median gross rent is 1,062 dollars a month and its median household income is 71,957 dollars. In county data about 28 people a year left Washoe County for Indiana, while about 107 came from Indiana to Washoe.

Indianapolis is the largest destination; see Reno to Indianapolis.

How the move works

O'Brien's books the move at your Nevada home and coordinates it through the Bekins network. A free, no-obligation estimate with 10 free heavy-duty boxes comes first, and the estimate is itemized and in writing; your written estimate sets the delivery window. We pack and load at your home.

Households moving to a larger Indiana house often bring more than they planned, so ask your estimator about the weight difference between the first estimate and the final one; the binding versus non-binding guide at binding and non-binding estimates explains it.

How a long-distance move works with a Bekins agent

O'Brien's Moving & Storage has been an agent for Bekins Van Lines since 1955. On an interstate move the Bekins network carries your shipment under the van line's interstate system; O'Brien's books the move in either direction. Leaving Northern Nevada, we give the free in-home estimate, pack, store in our Sparks warehouse if you need it, and load. Moving here from another state, you book with us and we coordinate the move from your origin through the Bekins network, then handle delivery, unpacking and storage in Sparks. Your written estimate sets the delivery window. What being a Bekins agent means.

Owner's reply

WE ARE THRILLED TO HEAR THE MOVE WENT SO WELL!!!! Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to let us know.

Francie H.

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

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!
