Sparks households store their things in our warehouse at 2277 Glendale Ave, about a 14-minute drive from the center of Sparks. Our crew packs and loads wooden vaults, 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft each, and vault storage starts at $40 per month.
Storage demand in Sparks follows the moving numbers. About 40 percent of Sparks households rent and about 15 percent of residents moved in the past year, and a move between leases or between a sale and a purchase is exactly when a household needs somewhere to keep its things for a few weeks or months.

Why the drive matters
Storage close to home is cheaper to move into and out of, because moving time is part of every move. From most of Sparks our warehouse is less than 15 minutes away, so loading your home and putting the vaults away often happens in one day.
How vault storage works
Vault storage is full-service storage: our crew packs, wraps and loads your things into wooden vaults, either at your home or at the warehouse, closes them, and stacks them in the warehouse with a forklift. You never rent a unit, carry a box or buy a lock. When you are ready, the vaults go back on a truck to your new home.
Stored goods are ready to ship with about 2 to 3 weeks notice, which is how far ahead we generally book a delivery.
When Sparks households use storage
Between selling one home and buying the next
Between leases, when the dates do not line up
During a remodel or a floor replacement
While staging a home for sale
For a downsizing, before deciding what to keep
How many vaults you need
A vault holds roughly the contents of a room. Our vault sizer gives a quick count, and your estimator gives the real number at the free in-home visit.

Short or long term
Some customers store for three weeks, others for years. Both use the same vaults and the same warehouse. See long-term storage and storage between homes.
What to tell the estimator
Tell the estimator how long you expect to store, whether anything needs to stay easy to reach, and whether the goods will be delivered back in Sparks or somewhere else. Long-term customers often store only part of a household, so the estimator lists exactly what goes into the vaults and what moves straight to the new home. Everything that goes into storage is listed on an inventory, so you know what is in each vault when it comes back out.
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.
