Another project

6 foot by 4 foot garbage truck sign... I left room for Benson, Mn on the bottom as the customer wasn't sure if he needed the city on his truck.... otherwise the phone numbers would have been dropped a bit to take up some of that negative space....

Cut vinyl or printed?  Is it laminated with anything?

 

The company that took over trash service where I live bought a fleet of used garbage trucks, painted them and put new art on them <2 years ago and they are all scratched and torn up from driving down narrow streets with trees on both sides, and they're starting to look like crap...

 

Plus some of the trucks have the robo-arms that lift the cans over the side of the truck and dump, and since not everyone puts everything in bags first, there are nasty brown streaks down the side where stuff oozed out of the cans...

I hear ya... It's called pride of ownership!  All we can do is explain to the customer to be careful with the trees ect. hitting the side of the truck...  This is a "robo arm" type truck, as far as the brown streaks oozing down the side of the truck, that is all up to the business owner and the image they want to portray. These guys take great care of their equipment and keep it looking clean and professional.  If it looks like a shit bag company, I don't want my work on their stuff anyway, triple the estamate and send it.....  Recycle companies are a gold mine for vinyl, trucks, roll off bins, dumpsters, cans.. ALL have their logo and info on them.. and all the roll off bins and dumpsters have DOT tape on them for an extra!
