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 Cramlington
- Expanding beyond Cramlington into the rest of Northumberland? Adding new areas or services to the lettering is a small change rather than a new wrap.
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Cramlington often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.
- Sole traders who win most work by word of mouth around Cramlington make referrals easier with a phone number neighbours can note down.

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.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Cramlington
Advertisement consent does not usually come into vehicle graphics. Advertisements on a vehicle normally used as a moving vehicle are outside advertisement control in England, although a vehicle parked up mainly to act as a billboard is treated differently. The rules that matter are road and registration ones. If a wrap changes the main colour, update the V5C log book with DVLA and tell your insurer. The windscreen must let through at least 75% of light and the front side windows at least 70% under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986, so we keep graphics off them. Leased vehicles: check the lease allows graphics.
