Vehicle wrap size chart
Short answer: a full commercial wrap uses about 215 to 665 sq ft of film on a van, 260 to 475 sq ft on a pickup, and 515 to 1,120 sq ft on a box truck. Those figures come from one wrap shop's model list. The shop prints more than that to cover bleed and overlap.
Square feet by vehicle
All rows come from the Chicago Fleet Wraps model list, which prices full wraps by a square foot formula. Price is that shop's full wrap price for one vehicle in cast vinyl.

Why the print is bigger than the chart
The chart is the surface of the vehicle. The print file is larger:
- Bleed. The Pro Vehicle Outlines FAQ tells designers to add 6 inches of bleed on all sides, and more around fender flares.
- Panel overlap. The same FAQ says to print vertical panels with about 1 inch of overlap.
- Coverage. A partial wrap uses a share of the chart figure. Doors and tailgate alone take a small share of the film the whole truck needs.
If you plan a DIY color change on a car, the film maker's roll guide is the right chart. This page covers printed commercial wraps, where the shop measures and prints for you.
How to use the chart
- Find the closest vehicle. Roof height and wheelbase matter more than the brand.
- Compare quotes on the same coverage. A quote for doors and tailgate is not a full wrap quote.
- Ask each shop which film and laminate they use. See how long a vehicle wrap lasts.
For price ranges by coverage, see pickup truck wrap cost, van wrap cost, box truck wrap cost and trailer wrap cost. Designers looking for outlines can start with vehicle wrap templates.
Before you request quotes, see how your business looks on the truck. WrapMockup previews are free. Clean files cost $9 for one vehicle plus its yard sign, or $29 for the Fleet Pack.
