Speak to your local sign company tell them they type of thing you are after and get them to come up with some designs that’s what I did , then tweek it until you get what you are happy with . Also helps to look at others designs try googling window cleaning vans for some ideas maybe
Yeah I’ve done all of that over the years. They’re all aiming for the route of least resistance and just basically coming up with our logo on the side of the van. Simple contact details and that’s it. I’m looking for inspiration. I’ve Googled window cleaning vans and nothing jumps out at me. I may well just end up going the same route as before.
Sounds like you need a different sign company
Good shout. I’ve just contacted one, she seems the only one who has reasonable reviews and specialises in vehicle signage design. There’s a few shockers on there.
I’ve contacted a few over the years. I don’t think it’s them, I think it’s me and my lack of artistic input. When I once started describing something (logo massive, at an angle going up the van, window cleaning nice and big) they told me I was heading towards a wrap. Problem is then you’re potentially looking at a few grand. When you’ve got vehicles worth £12500 plus vat it’s difficult to justify that sort of cost.Sounds like you need a different sign company
My vans cost around £400 each to do I think they look good
and that’s with reflective first layer then a second layer is put on it but a bit smaller so the outline glows in the dark . Wraps are expensive I was quoted 4k for a 3500 kg van lwb high roof . I have used the same firm for 25 years so he knows he will get the jobs so no deposit is asked for , guess sign writing is a very personal thing what suites one won’t suite another .
Good luck keeping that clean
The flyers look like the current van only they have a before and after picture and say “do you need a window cleaner?”. Following them would end up as we are currently.
Oddly enough when you Google window cleaning van signage one of your vans comes up
I like the simplicity of this. I really like the signage being in the insert part. I have something similar for my transporter. They’re magnetic and fit in the gaps. Really happy with with. At first glance they look like windows as it’s a white van.
What’s the reason for an 0800 number ?Oddly enough when you Google window cleaning van signage one of your vans comes up
I’m not sure about the stand out. I’ve been pointed to someone who shares the same accountant as me. He’s given me some ballpark figures that I’m happy with and I’ve gotta get him the logo over for him to mess about with. I’ve asked him to look at the logo blown up at a 45° angle on the sides of the van. The other option is what we currently have just refreshed. Final option being similar to yours I think. I like that and I’ve also been meaning to grab an 0800 number so it would be a good chance for a rebrand all in one.
I like the professionalism that is associated with it mate. Other windies round here seem to be knocking prices down to compete with each other. I’m about to put them up to cover the increase in wages and costs etc. essentially trying to keep my head up high, not get involved in some effed up price war and offering a different service instead of a cut price deal.
Sorry don’t understand what an 0800 number does to improve your business ? .
