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.
Points in favour of van wraps in Stretford
- If you trade across Greater Manchester as well as Stretford, a wrapped van takes the same branding to every job without paying for advertising space.
- A firm just starting out in Stretford can look properly set up from the first job with a wrap rather than a magnetic sign on the door.
- Vans left overnight on residential streets in Stretford carry on advertising in the evenings and at weekends, when people are at home and more likely to notice.
What van wraps cost in Stretford
The figures in this table are guide prices, from £795 to £3,850 per van, and they exclude VAT. They are there to help you plan. A firm price follows the survey or artwork check and is agreed before any work starts.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Stretford
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.
