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.
Where van sign-writing can pay off in Whitchurch
- Pulled up at a supplier or trade counter in or around Whitchurch, a clearly lettered van can bring in subcontract work from other trades.
- Expanding beyond Whitchurch into the rest of South Glamorgan? Adding new areas or services to the lettering is a small change rather than a new wrap.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Whitchurch
Do you need the council's permission to wrap or letter a vehicle in Wales? Normally no. Graphics carried on a vehicle that is driven in the ordinary course of business sit outside advertisement control, and only a vehicle left standing largely as an advertising display is likely to interest the council. The rules that do bite concern registration and the road. A new main colour has to be recorded on the V5C with DVLA, and your insurer should hear about it. Front glazing stays clear: the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require 75% of light through the windscreen and 70% through the front side windows. If the vehicle is leased, check the agreement allows graphics.
