You can apply yourself or hire a company. If you apply yourself, you pay a minimum of € 21. Companies can sometimes be cheaper because they avoid mistakes. Company applications are usually processed faster than private applications. A simple no-stopping zone for a moving truck is less complex than a zone for multiple construction vehicles.

Costs

What does a no-stopping zone cost in Neukölln?

The minimum fee is € 21 for a no-stopping zone in Neukölln. Processing time takes 3 to 4 weeks. Final costs depend on various factors.

Costs increase based on these factors:

  • Size of the no-stopping zone
  • Duration of the no-stopping zone
  • Number of traffic signs required
  • Effort required to assess the traffic situation

You receive the exact fee amount with the order from the Road Traffic Authority. The invoice arrives by post after processing your application.

Signs

Who sets up the no-stopping signs in Neukölln?

You must obtain and install the no-stopping signs yourself. The Road Traffic Authority in Neukölln only issues the order. You can get signs from construction site safety companies or sign rental firms.

Signs must be installed 72 hours before they become valid. It's best to install signs 4 days before validity. You are responsible for ensuring signs are installed on time.

Common mistakes when installing signs:

  • Signs installed too late (less than 72 hours beforehand)
  • Wrong position of signs
  • Signs not clearly visible or blocked
  • Missing additional signs with date and time

You can schedule appointments with the separate "Special Use" department. Office hours are Tuesdays from 9:00 to 12:00 in Room 4.

Moving

Do I need a no-stopping zone for my move in Neukölln?

A no-stopping zone is worthwhile for moves in Neukölln with limited parking. You need a parking spot directly in front of your building for the moving truck. Without a no-stopping zone, you often have to walk far or risk getting tickets. Plan the zone large enough for your moving truck and helper vehicles. A standard moving truck needs about 2 to 3 parking spaces. Apply for the no-stopping zone at least 6 weeks before your moving date. Processing in Neukölln takes 3 to 4 weeks, plus time for obtaining signs. For last-minute moves, you can also rent mobile no-stopping zones from service providers. These are more expensive but immediately available without waiting for the office.

Frequently Asked Questions in Neukoelln

Can I submit the application by email?

No, fees are based on effort and duration. Longer no-stopping zones cost more than short ones. You'll receive exact costs with the order.
