Commercial vehicle wrapping

Commercial vehicle wrapping for Surrey and London businesses

Q: How much does commercial vehicle wrapping cost?

Priced per vehicle by size and coverage, with partial wraps and sign writing costing less than a full wrap. Lorries and coaches are quoted individually. Prices fall per vehicle as numbers rise.

Q: How long does a commercial vehicle wrap last?

Self-coloured film five years plus; printed and laminated wraps three to five; cut vinyl five to seven. High mileage and full sun shorten it. On 3M film fitted to spec, lorry wraps commonly reach five to seven years.

Q: Can you wrap our vehicles at our depot?

No. Everything is fitted at our Caterham unit. Indoor, controlled conditions are how we keep a fleet consistent, and it's why we hold 3M Gold status. We schedule so most of your vehicles stay working.

Q: How long will our vans be off the road?

Same day for standard livery; a full day per van for full or high-coverage wraps; longer for lorries and coaches. We confirm once we've seen the models.

Q: Do we need to tell the DVLA about branded vehicles?

Only if the main colour on the V5C changes. Graphics on a white van don't change the recorded colour.

Q: Can you match our brand colours exactly?

Printed graphics are colour-matched to your brand references on HP latex and proofed before print. Self-coloured films are matched from the 3M and Avery ranges, with a physical swatch on the panel.

Q: What happens if a vehicle is damaged?

For fleet clients, the account manager gets it booked in quickly. Because the graphics are template-based, we reprint and replace the damaged panel only.

Commercial vehicle wrapping turns the vans, pickups, trucks and cars your business already runs into advertising that's on the road every working day. We've been doing it from our Caterham unit for over 18 years, for one-van firms and for fleets of hundreds, as a 3M Select Gold Partner with a facility built for commercial vehicles. Commercial vehicle wrapping in London and across Surrey is the bulk of the work.

This page covers how we run a commercial job. The vehicle-specific pages are linked below.

What it involves

Turnaround and keeping vehicles working

Get a free quote

For standard livery sets, many vehicles are turned round the same day. Full or high-coverage wraps usually need a full day per vehicle. Lorries and coaches take longer. We'll confirm realistic timings once we've seen the models and the coverage, and for fleets we schedule in batches so most of your vehicles stay on the road.

How a commercial job runs at Wrap Cube

It starts with a tidy brief.

A vehicle list by model and count. Details of each body type including racks, ladders, beacons, sensors, cameras and rear steps. Brand assets in usable formats. If you don't have panel maps, we make them.

Panel maps become your standard.

We template your exact vehicle so artwork sits on real panels, not a generic outline. Once approved, that map is what every future vehicle is built from. Proofing the second van takes minutes.

Everything at 153 Croydon Road, Caterham. No mobile crews, no gazebos in a depot yard. Controlled temperature, proper lighting, and nobody needs the van back before the film has settled. That single decision removes most of the variables that cause commercial wraps to fail early.

The practical stuff businesses

The practical stuff businesses ask us

{01} Leased and hired vehicles

Wraps and graphics are removable; most lessors allow them with written permission and professional removal at return.

{02} DVLA

If a wrap changes the main recorded colour, update the V5C. A branded white van with graphics is still a white van.

{03} Insurance

Declare it. Some commercial insurers discount branded vehicles.

{04} Chapter 8

Vehicles that stop on or beside the highway for work need conforming reflective chevrons. It's a separate specification and we fit it.

{05} Tax

Vehicle branding is generally treated as an advertising cost for a business. Confirm with your accountant.

{06} Damage

Because fleet graphics are built from templates, a damaged panel is reprinted and replaced on its own.

Location, for London and Surrey fleets

We're just south of Croydon on the A22, ten minutes from M25 junction 6, outside the Congestion Charge zone.

Drivers can walk to Caterham station for trains via East Croydon to Victoria and London Bridge.

For London fleets that means drop-off without central charging, and a controlled unit instead of a depot yard.

For Surrey businesses it's the local option that happens to hold 3M Gold status.
