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.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Melton Mowbray

Think road rules rather than planning rules. In England a vehicle normally used for driving is outside advertisement control, although parking one somewhere chiefly as a billboard can bring it back within the council's remit. Three checks matter more. Tell DVLA, via the V5C, and your insurer if the main colour changes. Keep the windscreen at 75% light transmission or better and the front side windows at 70% or better, as the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require. And for lease vehicles, read the agreement for what it says about graphics and removal. We plan every layout around all three.

Covering Melton Mowbray and Leicestershire

Fleet livery in Melton Mowbray: questions

Does the price of fleet livery in Melton Mowbray include VAT?

No. Our guide range of £225–£1,650 per vehicle excludes VAT, which is added to the quote. The final figure depends on size, materials, access, removal of existing signage or graphics and the artwork needed, and we confirm it in writing after a survey or once we have checked your files.

Who carries out the work on fleet livery in Melton Mowbray?

The work on site is done by installers working under our contract, and anything that needs making is produced by specialist fabricators. You deal with Smart Signs throughout: we take the enquiry, survey, prepare the design and quote, check consent and coordinate the fitting, so there is one point of contact from first message to handover.

How long does a fleet roll-out take?

It depends on the number of vehicles, the coverage and how many you can release at once. Templates and proofs typically take 2–4 weeks, then vehicles are fitted in agreed batches. A lettering-led livery moves faster than part wraps, and many fleets phase the work over several months so no more than a few vehicles are off the road at a time.

How soon after I approve the proof can the work on fleet livery happen?

Typically within a few weeks, depending on what has to be made. Printed and cut graphics are typically produced sooner than fabricated letters, trays or illuminated signs, which need more fabrication time. If the job needs advertisement consent, fitting waits for the council's decision. We confirm an expected date for Melton Mowbray once materials are ordered.

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.

Do trucks and trailers need different materials?

Often, yes. Box bodies and flat-sided trailers take printed vinyl much like vans, though rivets and corrugated panels need extra care. Curtain-sided trailers usually need graphics printed onto the curtain itself or a flexible film, because the curtain moves and folds. Send photos and we'll suggest an approach for each body type.
