Provo and Orem sit side by side in Utah County at the foot of the Wasatch Range, 4,606 feet above sea level. Census flows show about 122 people a year coming to Washoe County from Utah County, and a similar number going the other way. This page covers what a household finds on the Utah side. ## Utah's registration window and residency test Utah's DMV says new residents have 60 days to transfer titles and registrations. The Driver License Division does not state a fixed day count; it lists the situations that make you a resident who needs a Utah license. They include entering the state to make Utah your home, staying six months or more in a calendar year, registering a motor vehicle in Utah and taking a job there. Because registering a vehicle is itself a trigger, plan to handle the license in the same trip. Utah's state sales and use tax rate is 4.85 percent, with local and county options added, and the state's grocery rate is lower. The individual income tax is a flat 4.45 percent for 2026 under the statute. Nevada has no individual income tax, so a tax professional can sort out the part-year return. ## A younger, family-heavy housing market The city of Provo has a median age of 23.6, and 60.6 percent of its households rent, a high renter share. The Provo-Orem-Lehi metro lists medians of $100,704 for median household income, $1,534 for rent and $535,500 for a home, with a median age of 25.8. Reno's metro medians are $87,485, $1,592 and $502,300. The city of Provo alone lists medians of $467,200 for a home and $1,193 for rent. A student apartment and a family house are different moves; tell your estimator which one you have. ## Weather on the Wasatch Front The route data has no NOAA climate station matched to Provo, so check the NOAA normals for the Provo or Salt Lake area on the page linked below before you plan the load. Provo shares a high-desert elevation of 4,606 feet with northern Nevada, and the Wasatch Range brings more mountain snow than Reno sees. Reno's own January high is 47.7 degrees with 20.9 inches of snow a year. Winter delivery needs a clear driveway whichever side of the pass you are on. ## How the Reno to Utah haul works You book with O'Brien's. A free in-home estimate in Reno or Sparks includes 10 free heavy-duty boxes, and we coordinate the move through the Bekins network. Your written estimate sets the delivery window. The [interstate guide](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/long-distance-moving/how-interstate-moves-work/) lists each step. The route data counts 2 driving days at 500 miles a day. If a closing in Utah County slips, vault storage in Sparks from $40 per month holds the household. ### Sources (checked October 18, 2026) - [Utah DMV, Registering your vehicle](https://dmv.utah.gov/register/registering-your-vehicle/) - [Utah Driver License Division, Regular driver license](https://dld.utah.gov/what-is-a-regular-driver-license/) - [Utah State Tax Commission, Sales tax rates](https://tax.utah.gov/business/sales-tax/sales/rates/) - [NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/land-based-station/us-climate-normals) ### Licensed movers U.S. DOT No. 30611 MC-109375 Nevada CPCN 1070 Cal PUC T-90973 (as published by O'Brien's) Bekins Van Lines interstate agent since 1955 [Check our USDOT record](https://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/query.asp?searchtype=ANY&query_type=queryCarrierSnapshot&query_param=USDOT&query_string=30611) · [Ready to Move?

August 28, 2024 Extremely happy with the moving experience. The moving team showed up on time, friendly and polite. They did a wonderful job moving our boxes and furniture to the new location. We moved a three bedroom home and I could not be more pleased with the employees who assisted with the move. Highly recommend O'Brien moving for your move. ### Owner's reply Michelle, thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. We are so happy to hear about the move experience you had with our company and glad to know we met your expectations! It means a lot to us to know that. Thank you for choosing us as your moving partner. 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 a long-distance estimate Tell us where you are going.
