International Removals to and from Fuenlabrada
Fuenlabrada removals are priced by the hour for each 25-metre stretch of kerb, 18,77 or 21,45 euros, and the council’s occupation form asks for 15 working days.
A few short questions. Nothing is sent until you check and confirm.
How is a no-parking reservation for a move priced in Fuenlabrada?
Fuenlabrada’s fiscal ordinance no. 19 has a row for exactly this: “Reserva de prohibición de aparcamiento otorgada para realizar tareas diversas de mudanzas, montaje o desmontaje de maquinaria, o análogos”. The unit is “por cada tramo de hasta 25 metros lineales o fracción y hora o fracción”, which means each stretch of kerb up to 25 metres, for each hour or part of an hour.
The table prints 21,45 euros twice and 18,77 euros three times across its five street categories, so the dearer rate belongs to the first two categories and the lower rate to the other three. That pairing follows the column order in the text we extracted. As an illustration of our own arithmetic, not a council figure: four hours on one 25-metre stretch would come to 85,80 euros at the higher rate or 75,08 at the lower one.
A reservation in a bay laid out in bateria (angled parking) costs more. The ordinance says the fee for this row rises by 100 per cent in “zonas de aparcamiento en bateria”. The table has separate lines for a stretch beyond 25 metres and for a traffic cut “para realizar tareas de mudanzas”, with their own hourly rates, which we have left out because we could not confirm which figures belong to which line.
The text calls itself the wording in force, last amended by the council meeting of 22 December 2022 and applying from 1 January 2023. We found no later version, so check the current rate with the council.
Which form does the council use, and what are the 15 working days?
The council’s page “Solicitud / Renovación de ocupación de vía pública” is run by the Policía Local. It asks for the general application form (Instancia General) giving the applicant, the type of occupation, the date and the hours. It then states that between the application and the day of the occupation there must be “al menos 15 días hábiles”, at least 15 working days.
That is the general occupation page. It gives scaffolding and building hoardings as its examples and does not mention moves, so the 15 working days are not shown to be the rule for a moving day in particular. The council would need to confirm whether the same period applies. If it does, 15 working days is about three weeks, which sets how soon the move can be fixed.
Who applies, and where?
An individual can apply in person at the citizen-service offices: the Registro General at Plaza de la Constitución 1, or the district office for Loranca-Nuevo Versalles-Parque Miraflores at Plaza de las Artes. A private person can also use the other routes in article 16.4 of Spain’s general administrative procedure law. A company, as a legal entity, must use the council’s electronic office.
One further rule applies to heavy vehicles. If the occupation involves a vehicle of more than 12 tonnes, the application must include its registration plate and the route it will take to and from the spot. A lorry arriving with a household load may or may not reach that weight; ask the removal company.
How does Fuenlabrada decide which category a street is in?
The ordinance says the town’s roads fall into 5 fiscal categories, taken from a road classification attached as an annex to the council’s general ordinance on management, collection and inspection. That annex is a separate document we have not read, so we cannot tell you the category of any particular street.
Some rules in the ordinance matter at the edges. Where the space touches two streets in different categories, the rate of the higher-category street applies. A renamed street keeps the category its old name had, and a street newly opened counts as the last category until it is classified. Parks and gardens count as first-category roads.
What is not confirmed for Fuenlabrada
The two documents do not say who puts up the signs, how long before the day they go up, how many hours a vehicle may stay, or which category your street has. Ask the Policía Local for all four before you set dates.
Móstoles, another council in the Madrid region, bills by the hour as well but asks for one week and a payment receipt: read about Móstoles for the contrast. The wider region, including the capital’s own rules, is on our Madrid page. Duty relief on a move from the UK is on the customs page.
Tell us the Fuenlabrada address, the floor and the dates you have in mind. We are an enquiry and introduction service and do not file the council’s forms.
Elsewhere in the region, Las Rozas prices road space by the metre of kerb, and Majadahonda uses a fixed daily amount.
Questions about moving to or from Fuenlabrada
How is the no-parking reservation for a move charged?
By the hour for each stretch of up to 25 metres: 21,45 euros in the first two street categories and 18,77 in the other three, in the version amended in December 2022.
Are 15 working days needed for a moving day?
The council’s general occupation page asks for at least 15 working days between application and use.
It does not mention moves, so ask whether the same period applies.
What if a lorry weighs more than 12 tonnes?
The application must then give the vehicle’s plate and its route in and out of the spot.
Can a company file the request in person?
No.
The council’s page says a legal entity must use the electronic office, while an individual may apply in person.
