Storage for North Carson City (89706) households

The 89706 area covers about 20,500 people in roughly 8,400 households, and the Census puts 40 percent of those households in rented homes. The figures here describe the ZIP as a whole, so use them as a general picture of the neighborhood rather than a count for one street.

A faster-moving part of Carson City

About 15.1 percent of 89706 residents changed addresses in the past year, which is higher than the 13.5 percent the Census shows for Carson City overall. More people moving means more overlap between one home ending and the next beginning.

That overlap is where storage earns its place. A household can hand the crew its furniture on the last day of a lease and collect it when the new place is ready, rather than paying movers twice.

Apartments and small homes

With 40 percent of households renting, many 89706 customers are leaving apartments and townhomes where there is no spare closet or garage. Wooden vaults hold the contents of a room, so a one-bedroom often needs only a handful.

The estimator walks through the home and writes up every piece going to storage. The list becomes your inventory, so you know what sits in each vault.

From North Carson to the warehouse

The Sparks warehouse is about 30 miles and 36 minutes from this part of the city, the shortest drive to our vaults of any Carson City area. A crew can load in the morning and have the vaults stacked in the warehouse before the afternoon.

Delivery back to a new address is scheduled with the office, with about 2 to 3 weeks notice to ship stored goods.

How many vaults a rental needs

Each wooden vault is 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft. The vault sizer turns a room list into a rough vault count, and the in-home estimate settles it.

Vault storage starts at $40 per month, and the free estimate comes with 10 free heavy-duty boxes to start packing.

Questions to settle before move day

• The date the lease ends and the date the next home opens
• Whether the goods return to Carson City or go somewhere else
• Which items you want within reach during the gap
• Whether storage is a few weeks or open-ended
