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.
Points in favour of van sign-writing in Falkirk
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Falkirk often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.
- Your van probably spends more time on Falkirk roads than any leaflet spends on a doormat, so put the money into large, clear lettering.
- Parked on a driveway in Falkirk for a day's work, a sign-written van tells the whole street who's doing the job and how to ring you.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Falkirk
Three practical rules shape vehicle graphics in Scotland. One: change the main colour and the V5C needs updating with DVLA, with your insurer told too. Two: the windscreen must pass at least 75% of light and the front side windows at least 70%, so graphics are kept off them; rear-window one-way vision is used on vans and cars with two exterior mirrors. Three: on a leased vehicle, check the lease allows graphics and how they must be removed. Advertisement consent does not usually come into it, because vehicles normally used as moving vehicles are outside advertisement control, unlike one parked as a billboard.
