Reserving parking in the City of Brussels
How to apply
First apply on the regional Osiris platform for authorisation to temporarily occupy the public road. Then rent the no-parking signs using the City of Brussels online form (Mobility - Parking department), with your ID card and a copy of the Osiris authorisation. This applies to the whole City, including Laeken, Neder-Over-Heembeek and Haren.
| When to apply | Apply to rent the signs at least 10 working days before they are put up. You must obtain the Osiris authorisation first: check its processing time. |
| Cost | €114.03 for 1 day, then €14.87 per extra day (supply, placing and removal of signs included). An Osiris fee may be added. |
| Who places the signs? | The municipality |
| Limits and furniture lift | Signs apply Monday to Friday, 7 am to 7 pm only; not allowed in pedestrian zones (access pass required). Blocking a space with chairs or other objects is forbidden. |
| Contact | [email protected] - Brucity administrative centre, Rue des Halles 4, 1000 Bruxelles |
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 10 working 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.
