In Spanish Springs, 91.9 percent of homes are owner occupied and only 7.0 percent of residents moved in the past year, steady figures, with 390 arrivals from other states. O'Brien's estimates, packs and loads a Spanish Springs household, and the Bekins network carries it.
Spanish Springs is a Washoe County community of about 18,000 residents and 6,685 households, 15 miles and 28 minutes from our Sparks yard on SR 445. It has a high owner share and low recent turnover. Households here stay a long time, so when one leaves the state it usually has a lot to move.

The owner-occupied profile
With nearly nine homes in ten owner occupied and a median age of 45.8, Spanish Springs households have settled in: larger homes, garages, workshops and yard equipment. The 390 residents who arrived from another state, 2.2 percent, are a minority, and the 41 from abroad fewer still.
A long-distance move from this kind of home depends on volume, because weight sets the price. The estimator walks the garage and the yard as carefully as the living room.
Selling and moving
An owner leaving the state usually has a listing, a buyer and a closing date. Tell the estimator the date, and the packing and loading schedule is built to match. Our guides on moving and home staging and the booking window help with timing.
What the visit includes
A free, no-obligation walk through the house, garage and outbuildings
An itemized written estimate
10 free heavy-duty boxes, yours to keep
Packing options: full, partial or into your own boxes

Storage during a sale
When a sale closes before the next home is ready, wooden vaults hold the load at the Sparks warehouse, from $40 per month. See storage while selling a home. For a move to Spanish Springs, you book with O'Brien's and we coordinate it from your origin through the Bekins network. Delivery follows your written estimate's window.
The drive from the yard
Spanish Springs is close to Reno and Sparks, about 15 miles from 2277 Glendale Ave on SR 445. The estimator makes the trip for the free visit, and the crew makes the same short trip on loading day. Long-distance moves are priced by weight, and your written estimate sets the delivery window.
A long or steep driveway changes how a truck is positioned. Tell the estimator about yours, so the right truck and crew come.
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.

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!!!
