Southern Nevada or Northern Nevada?
The state splits neatly in two, and so do our routes.
Southern Californians usually head up I-15 to the Las Vegas Valley, where Henderson, Summerlin and North Las Vegas offer newer homes, master-planned communities and no state income tax. Northern Californians tend to cross the Sierra on I-80 to Reno, Sparks or Carson City, keeping Lake Tahoe and the Bay Area within reach for weekends.
| Route | Approx. miles | Main road | Watch for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Los Angeles to Las Vegas | ≈ 270 | I-15 | Heavy Friday and Sunday traffic at the Cajon Pass |
| San Diego to Las Vegas | ≈ 330 | I-15 | Summer heat across the Mojave |
| Sacramento to Reno | ≈ 130 | I-80 | Donner Summit chain controls in winter |
| Bay Area to Reno | ≈ 220 | I-80 | Snow closures over the Sierra |
| Los Angeles to Reno | ≈ 520 | US-395 | Long two-lane stretches east of the Sierra |
Rounded driving distances. Typical transit from California to Nevada is 1–4 business days.
We have dedicated pages for the busiest lanes: Los Angeles to Las Vegas, San Diego to Las Vegas and Sacramento to Reno.
Nevada Cities We Deliver To
Las Vegas
Summerlin, Southwest Valley and high-rise condos off the Strip.

North Las Vegas
Newer subdivisions and some of the valley's most affordable homes.

Elko, Fallon and Mesquite
Rural and small-town Nevada, from mining country to the Arizona line.
Heat in the South, Snow in the North
Las Vegas summers
Afternoon temperatures can top 110 degrees. We load early and keep electronics, candles and anything that warps out of the hottest part of the trailer.
Sierra winters
Caltrans can require chains or close I-80 over Donner Summit during storms. Winter Reno moves get a weather buffer built into the schedule.
HOA gates
Many Henderson and Summerlin communities need your mover on the gate list and limit truck hours. Send us the HOA contact early.
Same-week moves
Short distances mean we can sometimes load and deliver within the same week, which helps when lease dates are tight.
How a Nevada Move Comes Together
