Fleet livery in Kempston

Whether your business in Kempston is opening, rebranding or replacing something tired, fleet livery can be planned properly from the start. We look at the building or vehicle, the viewing distance and the consent position, then put a scaled drawing and a written price in front of you. Smart Signs covers Kempston, the rest of Bedfordshire and the wider UK.

Fleet livery is a consistent set of vehicle graphics, produced from master templates for each vehicle model, so every van, car, truck or trailer a business runs carries the same branding in the same position.

Points in favour of fleet livery in Kempston

  • Where we can arrange fitting at your depot, vehicles kept in Kempston can be liveried in batches between shifts instead of being driven away.
  • Adding a new van to a Kempston operation is simpler when the master template already exists, because it's printed and fitted to match the rest.
  • Vehicles going back to lease companies from a Kempston depot need graphics removed cleanly, so planning de-fleet removal early avoids surprises.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Kempston

Advertisement consent does not usually come into vehicle graphics. Advertisements on a vehicle normally used as a moving vehicle are outside advertisement control in England, although a vehicle parked up mainly to act as a billboard is treated differently. The rules that matter are road and registration ones. If a wrap changes the main colour, update the V5C log book with DVLA and tell your insurer. The windscreen must let through at least 75% of light and the front side windows at least 70% under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986, so we keep graphics off them. Leased vehicles: check the lease allows graphics.

Fleet livery in Kempston: questions

How long does it take to get fleet livery in Kempston?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.

Do you work across Bedfordshire or only in Kempston?

Across all of Bedfordshire, and the rest of the UK too. Kempston is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Can cars and vans in one fleet carry different levels of graphics?

Yes, and it's common. Pool cars might carry a logo and web address on the doors, vans a part wrap with services and phone number, and trucks larger side graphics. The colours, typefaces and logo placement stay consistent, so every vehicle still reads as the same business.

Should Chapter 8 chevrons be part of the livery?

If your vehicles stop or work on the highway and your contracts ask for them, yes. It's better to design the rear doors with the chevron area set aside than to add chevrons later over the branding. The livery then keeps the name and phone number clear of the markings, and the rear still carries your brand.

How many vehicles make a fleet?

Any number from two upwards. The benefit of fleet livery is consistency and good records rather than size, so a firm with three vans gains as much from a master template as one with fifty. The one-off template set-up is spread across every vehicle you add, both now and in the years ahead.

What is the price of fleet livery for a business in Kempston?

Guide pricing runs from £225 to £1,650 per vehicle, plus VAT. The main things that move it are dimensions, the material and finish, illumination where relevant, how high the work is and whether a scaffold or platform is needed. Your written quote, issued after a survey or a check of your artwork, replaces the guide figure.
