Dymon Storage Prices Ottawa vs. TLC Moving & Storage
By TLC Moving & Storage · Published 6 October 2025
Dymon does not list prices on its Ottawa page. It quotes by unit size, from a 3' x 5' locker to a 10' x 30' unit (read 29 October 2026). So the fair comparison is what each option includes: Dymon is self-storage you access yourself, while with TLC our movers pack, store and deliver your things.
What Dymon Storage offers in Ottawa
Dymon is the self-storage name most people in Ottawa find first. This is what its own Ottawa page states, read on 29 October 2026:
Climate control
Units with temperature and humidity control.
24/7 access
You can reach your own unit at any hour.
Security
Monitored access systems and backup generators for building access.
Move-in help
A free truck and driver at move-in, and free contents insurance up to a limit the page states.
Unit sizes
From a 3' x 5' locker to a 10' x 30' unit, plus a drive-up garage-style unit. The page shows no prices and says there are no hidden fees or admin charges.
What moving storage with TLC includes
At TLC, we combine professional moving storage with the move itself, so it is a different kind of service from a self-storage unit. We don’t just store. We move, pack and deliver:
Pack and load
We pack, wrap and load your things at the old home.
Store
Your belongings stay in our storage short or long term. The facility has a fire alarm and 24/7 CCTV.
Deliver and set up
When the new place is ready, we bring everything over and put the furniture back together.
Homes and businesses
We store household items, furniture, equipment and inventory.
Why Ottawa residents compare the two
Homeowners, renters and businesses in Barrhaven, Kanata, Orleans, Stittsville and Centretown often weigh both, usually because:
The storage is short
They only need it for a few weeks or months during a move.
They want secure storage at a fair cost
Without paying for features they won’t use.
They want one company
Moving and storage together, instead of a truck, a unit and two schedules.
How to compare the value
A monthly rate on its own tells you little. Compare the same job, priced the same way:
1. Get the size right
Dymon’s size guide puts one room in a 5' x 10', two rooms in a 10' x 10' and a three-bedroom house in a 10' x 20'.
2. Ask for written quotes for the same size and length
Ask Dymon for the unit and the months you need, and ask us for a moving and storage estimate covering the same period.
3. Count the trips
Self-storage means a move into the unit and another move out of it. Dymon’s free truck covers the move-in. With moving storage, the movers handle both trips.
4. Decide how often you need your things
If you need to visit the unit during storage, 24/7 access matters. Ask us how access works when you book your estimate.
5. Check what is covered
Ask each company what protection comes with the storage, and check your own home or tenant insurance too.
Which is right for you: Dymon or TLC?
If you want a facility with 24/7 access to your own unit, Dymon might work for you. If you are between homes, downsizing or waiting on a closing date, and you want the movers and the storage in one service, TLC keeps it to one company from the first box to the last piece of furniture.
