A van wrap is printed cast vinyl film, protected by a clear laminate, applied over a van's factory paint to cover some or all of its panels with your branding, colours and contact details.
Good reasons to look at van wraps in Reading
- Every day your van spends parked outside a customer's house in Reading is a day the neighbours see your name, services and number at eye level.
- If you trade across Berkshire as well as Reading, a wrapped van takes the same branding to every job without paying for advertising space.
- Queues on the main roads in and out of Reading give the driver behind you time to read a phone number on your rear doors.
What van wraps cost in Reading
Below is the guide pricing we use for van wraps: from £795 up to £3,850 per van, before VAT. These are not fixed quotes. A written price follows once measurements are taken and your artwork has been checked.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Part wrap (sides and rear) | £795 – £1,850 | £954 – £2,220 |
| Full wrap, small or medium van | £1,950 – £2,950 | £2,340 – £3,540 |
| Full wrap, long-wheelbase or high-roof van | £2,450 – £3,850 | £2,940 – £4,620 |
The main drivers are van size, how much is covered, how complex the panels are, design time and whether old graphics have to come off first. Ribbed sides and deep recesses take longer to fit. All prices exclude VAT and are confirmed after we've checked your van details and artwork.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Reading
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.
