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.
Van sign-writing in Shoreham-by-Sea: the practical benefits
- Pulled up at a supplier or trade counter in or around Shoreham-by-Sea, a clearly lettered van can bring in subcontract work from other trades.
- Many people in Shoreham-by-Sea look a firm up online before calling, so a short web address on the rear doors makes that step easy.
- Plumbers, electricians and gardeners working in Shoreham-by-Sea often need only a name, three services and a number, which is exactly what lettering does well.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Shoreham-by-Sea
Think road rules rather than planning rules. In England a vehicle normally used for driving is outside advertisement control, although parking one somewhere chiefly as a billboard can bring it back within the council's remit. Three checks matter more. Tell DVLA, via the V5C, and your insurer if the main colour changes. Keep the windscreen at 75% light transmission or better and the front side windows at 70% or better, as the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require. And for lease vehicles, read the agreement for what it says about graphics and removal. We plan every layout around all three.
