Sparks is home. Our office, truck yard and 30,000 square foot warehouse sit on Glendale Avenue, just south of I-80, and the numbers above show what kind of city our crews work in every day: a big, growing place where a large share of households rent and about one resident in seven moved in the past year.

What the numbers mean for a Sparks move

Sparks has more than 42,000 households, and about 40 percent of them rent. That means a lot of apartment and condo moves, with stairs, elevators and parking to plan around; see apartment and condo moves. The other 60 percent own, and the median Sparks home was built in 1993, so most houses here have garages, attics and two stories of furniture.

About 15 percent of residents moved in the past year, according to the Census Bureau's 2020-2024 estimates. In practical terms, our crews are in Sparks neighborhoods every week.

Neighborhoods we move every week

We move homes in the older blocks near Victorian Square and in the newer neighborhoods to the north and east, from Wingfield Springs to Spanish Springs and East Sparks and Vista. Because the warehouse is in Sparks, a crew can load your home and have your things in a storage vault the same afternoon.

Winter and summer in Sparks

Sparks sits at about 4,500 feet, and it gets real winters. Our crews protect floors with runners and pads in snowy weather and plan long loads for the cool morning hours in July and August.

What customers say about O'Brien's

Greg S.

3 O'Brien movers came down from Reno to South Lake Tahoe to assist our company moving a lot of big furniture out of a large warehouse. They showed up on-time, were friendly, and were professional and got the job done quickly and diligently. Will definitely use them again.

Thanks for the great review Greg! We really appreciate you taking the time to do that for us. We look forward to working with you again!
