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.
Good reasons to look at van sign-writing in Stornoway
- Expanding beyond Stornoway into the rest of the Highlands and Islands? Adding new areas or services to the lettering is a small change rather than a new wrap.
- Your van probably spends more time on Stornoway roads than any leaflet spends on a doormat, so put the money into large, clear lettering.
- Sole traders who win most work by word of mouth around Stornoway make referrals easier with a phone number neighbours can note down.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Stornoway
For vehicle graphics in Scotland, think DVLA and insurance rather than planning. A vehicle that is normally driven is outside advertisement control, though one parked up mainly as an advertisement is not. If the main colour changes, update the colour on your V5C and tell your insurer. We keep all graphics clear of the windscreen and front side windows, which need at least 75% and 70% light transmission under the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations. Before wrapping, we check the paintwork: chips, rust, poor resprays or failing lacquer can lift when the wrap is removed later.
