What designers charge each other

A Wraptor guide written for wrap designers says a full wrap design lands in the $650 to $850 range as a flat fee, and hourly rates run $40 to $100 (Wraptor design pricing guide). Partial wraps and decal layouts cost less.

Why design is a separate line

  1. Your logo file. Wrapmate charges $400, not $250, when it has to rebuild your logo as vector art. Send a vector logo (AI, EPS, SVG, or PDF) to skip it.
  2. Revision rounds. Identity Graphx Basic includes 3 revisions. More concepts and rounds cost more.
  3. Small jobs. Gator Wraps includes design on wraps over 100 square feet. Door lettering and spot graphics are under that line, so the hours get billed.
  4. Fleets. Wraptor says design cost spreads across every unit on a fleet. One layout, many vans.

How to cut the design bill

Walk in with a clear layout. Know your name, phone, website, services, and colors. Pick the style. Then the shop sets the file to your vehicle template. Read how to design a vehicle wrap and vehicle wrap templates. For a free option first, read free van wrap design.

Design is the small part of the bill

Film and labor cost more than the art. A full wrap on a cargo van runs $3,500 to $5,500 at USA Wrap Co. Read how much a van wrap costs, SUV wrap cost, and car wrap cost for business.
