Reserving parking in Grimbergen
How to apply
Apply online for a parking ban using the ‘parkeerplaats reserveren’ form on the municipal website. You can have the municipality place the no-parking signs: the technical service puts them up two days in advance and collects them afterwards. Approved applications are automatically added to GIPOD.
| When to apply | At least 10 working days ahead (standard application). Fast-track applications (4 to under 10 working days) and urgent applications (within 3 working days) cost more. The signs must be up 48 hours in advance to be legally valid. |
| Cost | Hire of no-parking signs from the municipality: placing and removal €30.00 (standard) / €60.00 (fast-track) / €100.00 (urgent) + €5.00 per day of sign hire (days of placing and removal not counted) + €2.00 extra per day for more than 8 signs; extension + €15.00. Rates are index-linked every 1 January. Ask the municipality whether the €40.00 administrative fee (for occupations ‘for works’) also applies to a house move. |
| Who places the signs? | The city |
| Limits and furniture lift | One separate application per activity. Ask the municipality about the maximum duration, the number of metres and the rules for a furniture or ladder lift. |
| Contact | Municipality of Grimbergen (Permits / public domain department), Prinsenstraat 3, 1850 Grimbergen - [email protected] - 02 260 12 11 (reception) |
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.
