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.
Why choose van sign-writing in County Armagh?
- Pulled up at a supplier or trade counter in or around Craigavon, a clearly lettered van can bring in subcontract work from other trades.
- Sole traders who win most work by word of mouth around Craigavon make referrals easier with a phone number neighbours can note down.
- Many people in Craigavon look a firm up online before calling, so a short web address on the rear doors makes that step easy.

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 County Armagh
Does a wrapped or lettered vehicle count as an advertisement under Northern Ireland's planning rules? Not while it is used as a vehicle. Councils can treat a vehicle parked mainly to display an advert as a sign, but day-to-day livery is outside control. Registration in Northern Ireland sits with DVLA, as it does in Great Britain, so a change of main colour goes on the V5C and your insurer needs telling. The law sets minimums for the front glass: at least 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows, which is why our designs leave them untouched. Leased vehicles may carry conditions on graphics and their removal.
