Hello I was just curious what the going rate is to apply a customer supplied 24' box truck wrap one side door and a roll up door on the back has to be completely covered as well. Last time we did these was 2001. They do use controltac and they are supposed to be new bodies so it shouldn't take a whole lot to clean them.
Thanks in advance

JAKE

Hiya Jake,
It depends on the job and conditions.
If I'm installing it indoors in a good work environment, it's a simple print without a lot of tight registration on the imagery or too many rivets, I could knock it out in a long (10-12hrs) day.
Generally speaking though, I budget 2 days and charge my shop rate for my time. I'll also add $$ to cover any related expenses, chemicals and rags for cleaning, travel, trash disposal, etc.
For budgeting purposes, I'll provide the client with an estimate of between $2 & $3 sq ft. Once I review the vehicle and graphics, I'll make any necessary price adjustments.

Havin' fun,

Checkers

I did one just like this one that you have now.
I did it about 10 years ago @ $2.50 s.f.
I made out real good.

I know a guy who does bus wraps for $250. He does a good job, too.

I don't even quote them.
