Orléans is Ottawa's east-end anchor: a largely francophone community that grew from villages along St. Joseph Boulevard into a suburb of well over a hundred thousand people. Its neighbourhoods span every era — 1970s Convent Glen, family-friendly Fallingbrook and Avalon, quiet Queenswood Heights — and Discount Moving & Storage runs Orléans moves weekly from our St. Laurent base, the closest of any Ottawa mover's home turf.
Being based in the east end matters here. Our crews know the Innes Road and St. Joseph corridors, the 174's rush-hour moods, and which Orléans condo buildings run strict elevator schedules.
Orléans homes and how they move
The typical Orléans move is a family home: three or four bedrooms, a finished basement rec room, and a garage that doubles as a workshop. Access is friendly — driveways and wide streets — so these moves are efficient with a three-mover crew. Older Convent Glen and Queenswood homes add mature-lot charm and the occasional narrow stair turn, noted at the walkthrough.
Orléans also has a growing condo and townhome stock around Centrum Boulevard and along Tenth Line. Those run on elevator bookings and condo rules, like anywhere — book the elevator when you book us, and we'll coordinate the rest. Our condo moving page covers the building side in detail.
Service in both languages, quotes in writing
Orléans households often prefer to deal in French, and we're happy to run quotes, paperwork, and moving-day communication in the language your family prefers. What never changes with the language: the quote is written, the inventory is real, and the price structure is explained before you book.
Many Orléans moves are also military- and government-adjacent — postings and transfers on fixed schedules. If your move is tied to a posting, tell us early: we'll sequence storage, packing, and delivery around your report date, and provide the documentation your claim requires.
