Incline Village has about 9,300 residents, and 42 percent of its housing units are seasonal or second homes, the highest share among our Nevada towns. O'Brien's reaches it from Sparks via I-580 and the Mt. Rose Highway, about 33 miles.
Incline Village sits on the north shore of Lake Tahoe at 6,823 feet, and its numbers are unlike any Truckee Meadows town. The median home value is above 1.4 million dollars, the median household income is among the highest in our service area, and about 9 percent of residents came from another state in the past year. Moves here are move-ins, move-outs and second-home setups.

Second homes change the work
With 42 percent of units used seasonally, many Incline Village moves are for vacation or second homes. A crew may deliver furniture to a home that has been empty for months, set it up and leave. Delivery and placement matter more than loading.
Incline Village streets climb from the shoreline in short, steep blocks, and many homes sit on terraced lots with stairs from the driveway to the door. The estimator measures those carries during the visit and notes where a shuttle truck or extra hands are needed. Condominium complexes near the lake often require advance notice for deliveries, so give the estimator your property manager's contact and the crew can arrange the loading time ahead.
The Mt. Rose Highway
The route climbs Nevada 431, the Mt. Rose Highway, for about 21 miles, as the fact block shows. The summit is high enough that snow and chain controls can affect the day, and the Nevada Department of Transportation posts conditions at nvroads.com. The office watches the forecast and agrees a start time with you; the winter moving guide has more.

Storage for the lake season
Storage works well for second-home owners and for households between homes. Wooden vaults in the Sparks warehouse start at $40 per month, and the Incline Village storage page explains packing and shipping back. Allow 2 to 3 weeks of notice for stored goods.
Senior, office and long-distance moves
The median age is about 48, so senior moves are part of the mix. Businesses on the north shore can use office moving, and households leaving use long-distance moving through Bekins.
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.

Both movers were courteous, efficient and very carful with my furniture. Also, talking with Janet over the phone was a pleasure.
