So we are no longer going to be "Stealth" carpet cleaners (Unfortunately)
We do too many up scale homes/offices to NOT have our BILLBOARD in everyone's faces

I'm having a hard time finding programs that give me a blank van template to over-lay the basics I want so I can show the printing company.

Thanks for any help!

May seem obvious, but your printing company should be able to give you one. Otherwise "Google images" for outline drawing of your brand of van.

Ive always preferred a plain white van, that way I stay referral only, but these days my referrers have less and less money to spend on me, so I GUESS ill take in some "walk ups" :)

Seriously consider your clientele when doing your designs... will they want it on their drive way?

If you're doing mainly high end, then they can be more concerned about image and what's parked in their driveway.

I'm not saying don't do it at all, but think carefully, maybe survey a few really good clients with a few designs and ask them what they think.

LOL, actually we get comments all the time "Where did the flames go???"

You'd be surprised how many woman thought it was "Neat" ...probably trying to spare my feelings :)

I've wrapped both my cleaning vans. My van is not wrapped. If I drove an ambulance I would defiantly tie in the Carpet doctor, or something. You also get rid of the lights and use that spot for headlining something. As far as a template just import a photo of your van in low resolution and overly what you want on top of it. Thats how I got a picture of what mine would turn out like

I agree with idread^^^^!! Use the ambulance to your advantage.....I would keep the top the same, just replace all the red light lenses with clear ones. I'm sure the lights come in handy during night work?

Very handy, 6 spotlights for night work in seedy ghettos when we go to an emergency water removal.
