Bridge Street, Suite 9. That makes the license-and-plates step a local errand, though an appointment is required. or call [775-359-6683](tel:+17753596683) [4.3 on Google · 71 reviews](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/reviews/) Family owned since 1941 [U.S. DOT No. 30611](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/about/licenses-and-authority/) ## Yerington by the numbers - Drive from our Sparks warehouse 74 mi, about 1 h 59 min via US 95A, SR 439, I-80 - Population 3,150 - Households 1,333 - Homes owned / rented 71.9% / 28.1% - Median year built 1976 - Median home value $284,800 - Moved in the past year 9.2% - Elevation 4,578 ft - County Lyon County - ZIP codes 89447 Data (read 2026-10-19): [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets/acs-5year.html); [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap data, free-flow drive from 2277 Glendale Ave, Sparks](https://project-osrm.org/); [USGS Elevation Point Query Service](https://apps.nationalmap.gov/epqs/).

Roughly 28.1 percent of households rent, a higher share than in most nearby towns, so this guide covers both renters and owners. ## City hall is the first stop for city services Yerington is an incorporated city, and its website, yerington.net, is the official place to find city departments and contact details. City services such as water, sewer and trash are tied to a city account, so ask city hall what a new account needs, whether a deposit applies and how soon service can start. A city bill in your name is also an accepted proof of address for the DMV. ## Electric and the county layer NV Energy handles electric start, stop and transfer requests through its website. Lyon County provides the county-wide records offices: the Assessor, the Clerk-Treasurer and the Recorder each have pages on lyon-county.org. If you are buying, the Recorder holds the deed and the Assessor sets the value. The Census Bureau's 2020 to 2024 median home value for Yerington is about $284,800, and the median year built is 1976. ## Schools: Lyon County School District Public schools in Yerington belong to Lyon County School District, whose website has an enrollment page. Bring birth certificates, immunization records and proof of address. With a median age of 51.4 and 71.9 percent of homes owner-occupied, Yerington has many long-term residents, and school staff can usually explain local sign-up timing better than any website. ## The Yerington DMV office The Nevada DMV lists Yerington at 215 W. Bridge Street, Suite 9, open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday, by appointment. New residents have 30 days to get a Nevada license and register a vehicle. Bring your current license, two proofs of Nevada address, your registration and Nevada insurance. Our [driver license page](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/moving-to-reno/drivers-license/) lists the documents in order. ## Plan for the distance Because Yerington is 119 minutes from Sparks, any plan that includes a vendor, a delivery or a crew visit needs a real time window. Winter on US 95A and SR 439 can lengthen the drive.

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!!! J Jennifer C. August 3, 2023 Customer service, packers, and loaders were very responsive, professional, and did an overall great job. ## Get a long-distance estimate Tell us where you are going.
