Reserving parking in Bilzen
How to apply
Since 1 January 2025, Bilzen and Hoeselt have formed the town of Bilzen-Hoeselt. For a parking ban for a move (removal van or furniture lift), you apply for a permit to use public space, preferably online through the EagleBe platform. If you cannot, book an appointment with the Mobility department. The town decides together with the police.
| When to apply | At least 7 calendar days before the start for a short occupation off the carriageway without traffic disruption; 14 calendar days if the carriageway is occupied or traffic is obstructed; 30 calendar days for occupations longer than 14 days. |
| Cost | Fee (council decision 28/01/2025): inside the blue zone €1 per m² per day; outside the blue zone €0.75 per m² per day; closing a street €50 for the first day, then €25 per extra calendar day; minimum €10. Ask the town about the cost of (placing) no-parking signs. |
| Who places the signs? | Ask the municipality |
| Limits and furniture lift | A permit is needed to use parking spaces, the pavement or a cycle path for a removal van or furniture lift. Ask the town who places the signs, what the maximum duration and length are and which rules apply to furniture or ladder lifts. |
| Contact | Planning department - Public domain supervision (Mobility), Deken Paquayplein 1, 3740 Bilzen-Hoeselt; [email protected]; 089 39 75 71 |
You always apply to the municipality yourself, not the mover: then mention the length you have reserved in your message.

How it works
- 1Describe your move, once
Route, floors, furniture, options and, if you like, up to 15 photos (rooms and access): about 3 minutes.
- 2Confirm your e-mail
One click on the link we e-mail you confirms your request. It is checked, then passed to a mover.
- 3One verified mover receives your request
They have 2 hours to accept it (counted between 8 am and 9 pm). A request confirmed between 9 pm and 8 am is passed to a mover from 8 am. If they decline or do not reply, your request goes to the next mover.
- 4You receive their quote through Movzo
They send it within 5 hours (same hours). You accept or decline it; if it does not suit you, you can ask once for another mover.
- 5You deal directly with the mover
Quote accepted: you receive their contact details and they receive yours. You agree and pay directly with them, then you leave a review after the move.
Before you move
- Parking permit: reserve the space with the municipality, at least 7 days ahead. See how it works
- Furniture lift: from the 2nd floor without a lift, it often saves a lot of time.
- Register your address with your new municipality within 8 working days; a local police officer will visit to confirm.
- Dates: the end of the month and summer are busy. Book 4 to 6 weeks ahead.
