Office moving in Fernley

Fernley is a town of about 24,225 people and 8,789 households at 4,535 feet, sitting on I-80 between Reno and Fallon. A business here usually moves for one of three reasons: outgrowing a suite, shifting closer to Reno or Sparks customers, or consolidating after a lease ends. O'Brien's commercial crews plan all three the same way, from a walk through your space and a written estimate.

What the Lyon County storage count tells an office manager

The Census Bureau's County Business Patterns lists 9 lessors of mini-warehouses and self-storage units in Lyon County for 2023. That is the self-serve kind of storage, where you carry every box yourself and manage your own lock.

Office moves often need something different: a safe place for a dozen desks, a conference table and forty file boxes for a few weeks while a lease overlaps or a build-out finishes. O'Brien's vault storage in Sparks is full-service, so the crew packs, wraps, loads and stacks, and the inventory lists what is in each vault. See commercial storage for how it works.

The drive from Fernley and why it shapes the plan

Our yard at 2277 Glendale Ave is 38.8 miles and about 63 minutes from Fernley by I-80 and US 50 Alt, so the estimate covers the full day rather than a quick stop. The estimator asks when your staff leaves, which floor or bay is loaded first and where the trucks can park near your door.

With the yard a drive away, one long work session usually suits a Fernley move better than two short ones. The written plan states the start time, the order of rooms and who on your side is on site at the beginning and end.

Moving within Fernley or out of town

A move across Fernley stays inside Nevada and falls under O'Brien's Nevada Transportation Authority certificate (CPCN 1070). A move from Fernley to Reno, Sparks or Carson City is also inside Nevada. A move to another state is interstate and runs under federal authority, U.S. DOT No. 30611 and MC-109375.

Whichever applies, the estimate is itemized and in writing, and an itemized inventory and condition report comes before packing begins.

• Workstations, desks and filing cabinets
• Break-room and conference furniture
• Boxed files and supplies, labeled by department
• Computer equipment, handled with your IT contact

Evenings, weekends and holidays

Commercial crews work outside weekday hours by arrangement. For a Fernley business that depends on weekday phone orders or counter sales, an overnight or Sunday move keeps Monday normal. Read how that is scheduled on the after-hours moves page.

Planning steps for a Fernley office

1. Call 775-359-6683 on a weekday between 8 am and 5 pm and describe your suite.
2. An estimator walks the space and the destination, or reviews the floor plans.
3. You receive an itemized written estimate.
4. Staff label desks and pack their own drawers, or the crew packs, as the estimate states.
5. A move manager directs the crew on the day and signs off area by area.
