Reserving parking in Turnhout
How to apply
You apply for the use of parking spaces fully online via the Spotbooking form on the city website; if you cannot do it online, book an appointment at the Roads desk (Loket Wegen) in the city office. You pay straight away and receive the permission by e-mail. The city’s technical department places the no-parking signs two days in advance and collects them afterwards.
| When to apply | 3 working days in advance for parking spaces only; 10 working days for a skip, scaffolding or disruption (the day of application and the first day are not counted). |
| Cost | Administrative fee €24.40 per application + €3.70 per parking space (6 m) per day, minimum €20. Extension: another €24.40 + the daily rate. Closing the street: €61. |
| Who places the signs? | The city |
| Limits and furniture lift | 1 unit = 6 m or 1 parking space. The permission cannot be changed except for the start date. Refund only before the signs are placed. Signs are only placed after payment. |
| Contact | Roads desk (Loket Wegen) 014 44 33 93; city 014 44 33 11, [email protected] |

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 3 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.

How much does a move cost?
