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 you gain from van sign-writing in Larne
- Sole traders who win most work by word of mouth around Larne make referrals easier with a phone number neighbours can note down.
- Many people in Larne look a firm up online before calling, so a short web address on the rear doors makes that step easy.
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Larne often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.
What van sign-writing costs in Larne

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 Larne
In Northern Ireland, as in Great Britain, DVLA keeps the vehicle register, so a wrap that changes your vehicle's main colour means updating the V5C and informing your insurer. Advertisement consent is not normally needed for graphics on a vehicle that is driven in the ordinary way; parking one up mainly as a billboard changes that. Windscreens need at least 75% light transmission and front side windows at least 70%, so those stay clear. Paint condition matters as well: wraps go on sound factory paint, and resprays, rust or failing lacquer can lift when the wrap is later removed.
Covering Larne and County Antrim
Yes, Larne is covered, as is the rest of County Antrim. For signs that are fixed to a wall or wired in, we arrange a visit to survey first. For window film, lettering or vehicle graphics, a set of photos with measurements is often all we need to put a price together. Larne is about 18 miles north of Belfast.
