Van sign-writing is lettering, a logo and contact details cut from coloured vinyl and applied straight onto a van's paint, usually on the sides and rear doors, without covering whole panels in printed film.
What van sign-writing can do for businesses in Great Sankey
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Great Sankey often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.
- Your van probably spends more time on Great Sankey roads than any leaflet spends on a doormat, so put the money into large, clear lettering.
- Dog walkers and weekend shoppers in Great Sankey pass parked vans at walking pace, which is when a simple layout gets read from top to bottom.

What moves the price: the size of the van, how many words and lines you want, the number of vinyl colours, printed logo panels, reflective or metallic film, and whether old lettering has to come off first. Every figure is a guide excluding VAT, confirmed once we've seen your wording and photos of the van.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Great Sankey
For vehicles, the paperwork is about DVLA and your insurer, not the planning department. Graphics on a van or car that is normally driven around fall outside advertisement control; only a vehicle parked mainly as an advertising hoarding is caught. A change of main colour means updating the colour on your V5C and telling your insurer. We leave the windscreen and front side windows clear, because the Construction and Use Regulations 1986 require at least 75% and 70% light through them, and we check the paint is sound factory finish before wrapping. If the vehicle is leased, confirm the lease permits graphics and how they must come off.
