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.

Where van wraps can pay off in Abertillery

  • Queues on the main roads in and out of Abertillery give the driver behind you time to read a phone number on your rear doors.
  • Slow school-run and commuter traffic through Abertillery gives side panels time to be read, which rewards a short services list and large lettering.
  • Planning to sell or hand back the van later? Keeping the paint covered while you work around Abertillery can help it go back in better condition.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Abertillery

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.

Van wraps in Abertillery: questions

What do you need from me to quote for van wraps in Abertillery?

Photos are the most useful start: the whole frontage, window or vehicle, plus a close-up of the area involved. Add rough measurements, your logo or artwork if you have it, and the address. From that we can say whether a survey visit is needed and send a written quote, followed by a proof for you to approve.

How long does it take to get van wraps in Abertillery?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.

Where does the van get wrapped?

Wrapping needs a clean, dry, covered space at a reasonable temperature, because dust and damp affect how the film sticks. If you have a suitable unit or garage with room to walk around the van, fitting can often happen there; otherwise we agree a location with you. A full wrap typically keeps the van off the road for 1–3 days.

Can a wrap go over dents, rust or a respray?

A wrap follows the surface it's on, so dents and deep scratches still show through, and rust keeps spreading underneath. Poor resprays and failing lacquer are the bigger risk, because they can lift when the wrap is removed later. We check the paint before quoting and suggest any repairs that should happen first.

Will the location in Abertillery affect the cost of van wraps?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £795–£3,850 per van + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Abertillery are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

Can graphics go on the rear windows?

Yes, on the rear windows, using perforated one-way vision film that lets the driver see out while passers-by see the print. It's used on vans with two exterior mirrors. The windscreen and front side windows must let through at least 75 per cent and 70 per cent of light respectively, so we keep graphics off those.
