Costs

The fee for a no-stopping zone is at least 21 euros. The exact height depends on the duration and size of the no-stopping zone. The purpose can also play a role, for example moving or a construction site.

For private applications processing takes 6 to 10 weeks. For companies, processing takes approximately 1 week. Be sure to plan these times and submit the application early enough. If you have any questions, please contact the road traffic authority directly.

Signs

The road traffic authority only issues the traffic law order for the no-stopping zone. You have to get the traffic signs yourself.** This is done, for example, by companies that provide construction site protection or rental companies of no-parking signs (sign rental). You must put up the signs or have them put up in good time before they become valid. This gives other road users enough time to change parking spaces. The exact deadlines are in the order or the company will inform you.

Note: Common mistakes include signs posted late or incorrect locations. Make sure the signs are clearly visible and are not obscured by trees or parked cars. It is best to take photos of the posted signs with the date.

Moving & construction work

A no-stopping zone when moving in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf is often worthwhile. It is particularly helpful in narrow streets or when there are many parked cars. This means the moving truck is close to the front door, saving you time and energy.

For private applications it takes 6 to 10 weeks. So submit the application well before the moving date so that the order is received in good time and the signs are in place in good time.

Tip: Plan the size of the no-stopping zone based on the length of the vehicle. You usually need at least the length of a large van plus maneuvering space. It is best to discuss the required length with the moving company or the vehicle rental company. Remember the processing time in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf.
