From first proof to installation: how long a commercial wrap takes

A commercial vehicle wrap runs in stages: your first proof, up to three rounds of revisions, your written approval, then print and installation. Two of those stages carry a published window, set out below with the rule for when each clock starts. Nothing prints until you approve the proof in writing.

Vehicle lettering, partial wrap or full wrap: what each one covers

Vehicle lettering is cut vinyl on the paint: name, logo, phone and USDOT or MC number on both sides and the rear. A partial wrap is a printed section of graphics; a full wrap covers every outward-facing painted panel, with the roof an add-on. In that order, they start at $999, $1,500 and $3,000.

Rules and records

DOT and MC number lettering: what the rules require

Under 49 CFR 390.21T, a self-propelled commercial motor vehicle the rule covers must be marked on both sides with its operating carrier's legal name or a single trade name and its USDOT number. The rule sets contrast and legibility requirements but no minimum letter size. USDOT and MC numbers are lettered to spec.
