Questions about senior moves and downsizing

O'Brien's has helped northern Nevada households move since 1941, and senior moves are a service of their own. The crew handles packing, furniture placement and storage, and de-clutter help comes before the truck is loaded.

Moving from a family home is a decision as much as a task. These answers describe what help is available before, during and after the move, and where to turn for official resources on senior living.

Help at home

Do you help seniors downsize?

Yes. De-clutter and home-staging furniture help is part of the senior moving service.

Can the crew pack for us?

Yes. Full packing is available, and partial packing suits families who want to pack photographs and papers themselves.

Can you rearrange furniture at the new home?

Yes. In-home furniture moving and rearranging is a service, described on the in-home furniture moving page.

Where is the senior moving checklist?

The senior moving checklist lists the steps by week.

My family moved exclusively with Bekins when I was young and O'Brien's made it a pleasure to return to this fine local company. I would be pleased to have any members of O'Brien's as friends and highly recommend O'Brien's to anyone needing the services they provide!

O'Brien's Moving and Storage packing crew were great!! They were fast, friendly and most importantly, very professional. Thank you guys.

Michelle C.

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.

Owner's reply
