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.
What van wraps can do for businesses in Runcorn
- If you trade across Cheshire as well as Runcorn, a wrapped van takes the same branding to every job without paying for advertising space.
- Wherever you park in Runcorn, whether a trade counter, a supermarket car park or a client's drive, the wrap keeps working while you do.
- A firm just starting out in Runcorn can look properly set up from the first job with a wrap rather than a magnetic sign on the door.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Runcorn
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.
Covering Runcorn and Cheshire
From the middle of Runcorn to the edges of Cheshire, the same survey, proof and fit process applies. If the job calls for someone on site, a visit is booked; if not, we price from photos, measurements and your artwork, then confirm the details once the artwork is checked. Postcode districts around Runcorn include WA7 and WA8. Roughly 7.1 miles separate Runcorn from Warrington, which lies to the north-east.
