If you run a trade business, your truck or van is on the road every day, parked in driveways and sitting outside job sites across the neighborhood. That makes it one of the best advertising spots you’ll ever have. The question is how much to put on it.
Lettering, partial wrap or full wrap?
Vehicle lettering
Cut vinyl lettering with your company name, logo, phone number and website is the simplest option. It’s clean, professional and budget friendly, and it’s a great fit for businesses that want a straightforward look or need to letter a lot of vehicles. See our vehicle lettering service.
Partial wrap
A partial wrap covers part of the vehicle, often the back half or the sides, and blends into the paint color. It stands out more than lettering alone without the cost of a full wrap.
Full wrap
A full wrap covers the whole vehicle in your design and gets the most attention on the road. It’s the choice for businesses that want their trucks to double as rolling billboards. Learn about corporate and fleet wraps.
What to put on a work vehicle
- Company name and logo, large and easy to read
- What you do, in a few words: “AC Repair,” “Plumbing,” “Roofing”
- Phone number, big enough to read from another car
- Website, short and simple
- License number, if your trade or local rules call for it
Keep it simple. People see your truck for a few seconds at a time, so a clean design with a clear message beats a cluttered one every time.
Consistency across a fleet
If you have multiple vehicles, a consistent design makes your company instantly recognizable. Even if your trucks are different makes and models, the same colors, logo and layout tie the fleet together.
