Data: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates.
Galena and Montreux are at the high, wooded south end of the Reno area, where the elevation is about 6,300 feet and the Mt. Rose Highway starts to climb. The Census figures for this ZIP count 13,054 households and the largest homes in the south valley. The drive from our yard in Sparks is about 17 miles and 23 minutes, over I-580 and SR 431.
Most neighborhoods are led by three-bedroom homes. Here four-bedroom homes are nearly as common as three-bedroom ones, about 3,900 against about 4,200, and more than 1,280 homes have five bedrooms or more. A five-bedroom house is a multi-day pack. The estimator plans the rooms in a fixed order so the house empties in a way that makes sense.
According to the Census Bureau, the median home value in this ZIP is about $916,600. Homes at that level tend to hold art, collections, wine and furnishings that need individual care. Ask about wine cellar moving, fine art and antiques and custom crating at the in-home visit.
The elevation here is high enough that the weather turns earlier in fall and lingers later in spring. Packed cartons should not wait on a porch or in an open garage in freezing weather, and a snowy driveway changes how a truck can approach. The estimator walks the driveway and the grade and plans the pack and load so cartons go from the house to the truck quickly.
Some homes in this area are lived in part of the year, with furniture and household goods spread across two locations. If part of your household goes to a second home, part to storage and part to a new house, we can pack in groups with each group marked, and vaults are available for the share that waits; see seasonal and second-home storage.

What customers say about O'Brien's
Sonia P.
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!!!
