MIDTOWN SACRAMENTO · SACRAMENTO AREA
Vehicle Graphics
in Midtown Sacramento.

The reason Midtown Sacramento businesses call us about vehicle graphics is usually a date. Somebody needs it by Thursday, or by the weekend, and the shop they normally use has quoted next week. We’re about 5 miles away and about 95% of what we sell is made in this building, which is what makes same-day a clock rather than a slogan.
The Midtown Sacramento buyers.
The businesses ordering vehicle graphics in Midtown Sacramento cluster into a few recognizable groups. Retail and storefront business, restaurants, cafes and food business chief among them.
What they have is glass, a doorway, and a sidewalk full of people walking past, which puts window graphics, A-frames, and awning-height lettering at the center of the marketing budget rather than the edge of it.
The Midtown order pattern is small, frequent, and time-sensitive: window lettering with hours and a phone number, sandwich boards for the day’s specials, menus that change with the season, event banners for Second Saturday and the block events that come with it, and the occasional full storefront wrap when someone decides to stop blending into the block.
Delivery vans and courtesy vehicles get lettered so the business is visible on every street it parks on.
Delivery and catering vehicles carry the name, the phone number and the ordering address: a moving advertisement on a route you already drive.
What it costs.
Vinyl print and lettering is posted at $7 per square foot, which covers most vans, trucks and trailers.
Lettering a van’s two sides and rear typically lands well inside what most small businesses can approve without a meeting; bring the vehicle or send measured photos and you’ll get the real number.
What’s quoted separately rather than posted: installation, special finishing, and design time if we’re building the artwork from scratch instead of printing a file you already have. You’ll get those numbers before we start, never after. See the posted list.
The part worth knowing.
The advice we give most often: do one vehicle first. Get the layout right on the one you drive most, live with it for a couple of weeks, then bring the rest in. Artwork stays on file, so vehicle two matches vehicle one exactly whenever you get to it. Next month or next quarter.
The phone number is the biggest element after the name. It has to be readable from another lane at speed, which means fewer other things on the panel, not more. A long service list on a moving vehicle is decoration.
Getting vehicle graphics from Midtown Sacramento.
From 1835 Fulton Ave it’s a straight shot down to the Capital City Freeway and off at one of the lettered-street exits, about five miles and, outside of commute hours, well under fifteen minutes. Midtown’s grid makes the last part easy: numbered streets one way, lettered streets the other, and your address tells you exactly where you are.
This is not same-day work. Printing is fast; application takes time and cannot be rushed without showing. We schedule the vehicle and give you a real date. If the drive is the awkward part rather than the deadline, ask about delivery when you place the order. It’s available on many jobs, though for a genuinely same-day deadline collecting at the counter is still fastest.
Questions we get from Midtown Sacramento.
Do I need to bring the vehicle in?
For measurement and application, yes, but for a quote, straight-on photos of each side with a tape measure in frame will do. Tell us about door handles, body lines, sliding doors and windows; those change the layout.
What about magnets instead?
Magnets are the right call when the vehicle is leased, shared, or personally driven at weekends. Off in seconds, back on Monday. Lettering is the better buy when it’s genuinely a work truck, because it can’t blow off or walk off.
How far is the shop from Midtown Sacramento?
About 5 miles. We’re at 1835 Fulton Ave, Sacramento, CA 95825, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with parking in front and more in the rear.
Do Midtown Sacramento customers pay a different rate?
No. One posted price list for everyone. Banners $6 per square foot, coroplast $9, vinyl lettering $7, PVC $11, aluminum composite $13.50, 500 business cards $58, shirts from $15. Where you drive from doesn’t change the number.
