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 Hemel Hempstead
- Expanding beyond Hemel Hempstead into the rest of Hertfordshire? Adding new areas or services to the lettering is a small change rather than a new wrap.
- Parked on a driveway in Hemel Hempstead for a day's work, a sign-written van tells the whole street who's doing the job and how to ring you.
- Your van probably spends more time on Hemel Hempstead roads than any leaflet spends on a doormat, so put the money into large, clear lettering.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Hemel Hempstead
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.
