Reserving parking in La Louvière
How to apply
You apply for an occupation of the public road (OVP) online through the city’s online counter (e-guichet, EAGLEBE tool), which also covers a parking ban for a move. Without internet access, book an appointment on 064/27.78.11. Private individuals can borrow signs from the city (régies communales, rue Bastenier 60) against a deposit and put them up themselves.
| When to apply | At least 7 working days before the date of the parking ban; late requests may be refused. Signs must be placed at least 24 hours before the occupation starts. |
| Cost | Public road occupation fee (moves included): €3.00 per m² per day for occupations under one year (2026-2031 regulation, indexed from 01/01/2027). Sign loan is free for private individuals, with a deposit of €150 per pair of signs/bases (€75 kept per missing or damaged set; deposit lost if returned late). |
| Who places the signs? | You (or your mover) |
| Limits and furniture lift | No-parking zone of up to 30 metres. Sign loans only for private individuals (not companies), while stocks last; collection and return at the régies Monday-Friday, 9 am–noon and 1.30 pm–3 pm, with your own vehicle. The permit must be displayed on site; leave a 1.50 m pedestrian passage where possible. Containers, ladders, hoists and furniture lifts also need an OVP; equipment must stand in the parking zone, not on the pavement, unless an exemption is granted. |

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 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.
