Moving between Reno and the East, South and Midwest
These are our longest routes, from Omaha at about 1,445 miles to Miami at about 3,055, and nearly all of them start with I-80 east out of Sparks. Cross-country moves are priced by weight, and the written estimate sets the delivery window.
Every state from Nebraska to Maine, and from Florida to Louisiana, falls in this region. To keep it usable, the cities below are sorted into the Plains and Midwest, the Great Lakes, the Northeast and the South.

Chicago is about 1,915 and Milwaukee about 1,956. Cities such as Omaha, Des Moines and Chicago sit right on the I-80 line.

How a cross-country move is booked
Leaving Reno, you book with O'Brien's and the Bekins network carries the move. Arriving in Reno, you also book with O'Brien's, and we coordinate the move from your origin through the Bekins network, then deliver, unpack and store in Sparks. At these distances, your itemized estimate and the inventory and condition report matter most. Read what goes into a long-distance moving cost before you compare quotes.
The two employees showed up on time and were very polite and ready to work. Our quote was 8 hours and they finished in 5 hours. Office staff checked in prior to move and confirmed all details and check in after move to make sure everything was taken care of. Would use this company again for sure!
