Truck Wrap Cost (2026): Pickups, Vans & Box Trucks Priced
"Truck" is the most misquoted word in wrap pricing, because it covers everything from a Tacoma to a 26-foot box body. This guide prices each size separately for 2026, for both color-change wraps and printed commercial graphics.
Quick answer
A full color-change wrap costs $3,200–$7,000 for a pickup and $3,500–$10,000+ for a cargo van or box truck in 2026. Printed commercial wraps with your branding run $2,500–$5,000 per vehicle plus design. Partial wraps start around $500.
These are estimates from CarWrapHub's national pricing model. West Coast and Northeast metros quote above these ranges and the Midwest a little below; each city page applies the exact regional multiplier. City-level estimates are on our car wrap cost guide.
Truck wrap cost by vehicle type
Full wrap means every painted panel in a solid cast color from 3M, Avery or KPMF. Partial covers a common package such as hood, roof and tailgate, or a lower-body two-tone.
| Truck type | Film needed | Full wrap | Partial wrap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mid-size pickup (Tacoma, Ranger, Colorado) | 75–90 ft | $3,200–$4,500 | $500–$1,500 |
| Full-size pickup (F-150, Silverado, Ram 1500) | 90–110 ft | $3,800–$6,000 | $600–$1,800 |
| Heavy-duty / lifted (F-250, 2500HD, Tundra with flares) | 100–125 ft | $4,500–$7,500 | $700–$2,000 |
| Cargo van (Transit, Sprinter, ProMaster) | 100–125 ft | $3,500–$6,500 | $1,200–$2,500 |
| Box truck (16–26 ft body) | 125–200+ ft | $4,000–$10,000+ | $1,500–$3,500 |
Estimated ranges for standard gloss and satin finishes. Chrome, color-flip and textured films add $800–$2,000 in material on a truck-sized job.
Commercial truck wraps: what businesses pay
Branded wraps are priced differently from color changes because the film is printed and laminated and there is a design stage. Three tiers cover almost every work truck:
Cut vinyl lettering
$300–$900
Company name, phone and logo on doors and tailgate. Fast, cheap, easy to update.
Partial commercial wrap
$1,200–$2,500
Doors, tailgate and rear window perf with printed graphics. Most of the visibility at a third of the price.
Full commercial wrap
$2,500–$5,000 per vehicle
Every panel printed and laminated. Add $250–$1,500 for design if you do not have print-ready artwork.
Fleets of five or more vehicles can often negotiate a per-unit rate below the single-truck price, and shops that print in-house can turn a repeat design around faster. Our fleet wraps for small business guide and the fleet wrap service page cover design files, scheduling and how to keep a fleet consistent.
What pushes a truck wrap quote up
Square footage
Film is sold by the linear foot and installed by the hour. A box truck body can need twice the material of a pickup and the labor scales with it.
Bed, tailgate and flares
Pickup beds have rails, tie-downs and a tailgate with a handle and camera cutout. Aftermarket fender flares and lifted-truck bumpers add complex edges that take time to tuck cleanly.
Printed vs solid color
Commercial wraps are printed on a print film then laminated, which is two materials and a design step. A solid cast color skips both, which is why a color-change on the same truck can cost less than a branded wrap.
Removal of old graphics
Used work trucks often arrive with faded lettering or a previous wrap. Stripping it is billed separately, typically $500–$1,200. See our wrap removal cost guide for what drives that number.

Two things truck owners should budget for
Climate and parking
Work trucks live outside. In hot, high-UV markets such as Texas, Arizona and Florida a wrap that is rated for 7 years often shows edge lift and fading on the hood and roof by year 4–5. Budget for a hood and roof refresh, or specify a premium film and a ceramic coating up front. Our wrap lifespan guide breaks this down by climate.
Front-end PPF
Trucks take rock chips on the hood, bumper and mirrors. A clear paint protection film front-end package costs roughly $900–$2,000 and is often installed in the same visit as a wrap. It is worth it on a personal truck you plan to sell; it is usually skipped on fleet vehicles. Compare on our PPF vs vinyl wrap guide.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to wrap a truck?
A full color-change wrap costs $3,200–$4,500 for a mid-size pickup, $3,800–$6,000 for a full-size pickup such as an F-150 or Silverado, and $4,500–$7,500 for heavy-duty or lifted trucks in 2026. Cargo vans run $3,500–$6,500 and box trucks $4,000–$10,000 or more. Trucks cost more than cars because they carry 100–150+ square feet of film and more labor hours.
How much is a commercial truck wrap with a company logo?
Printed commercial wraps with branding typically cost $2,500–$5,000 per vehicle for a pickup or cargo van, plus a one-time design fee of $250–$1,500 if you do not already have print-ready artwork. Partial commercial wraps (doors, tailgate and a rear window perf) start around $1,200–$2,500. Fleets of five or more vehicles can often negotiate a per-unit rate.
Why are truck wraps more expensive than car wraps?
Surface area and complexity. A full-size pickup needs roughly 90–125 feet of 60-inch film versus 45–60 feet for a sedan, and the bed, tailgate, fender flares, running boards and bumpers add cut-and-tuck work. Lifted trucks with aftermarket flares and grille inserts add hours. Labor is the majority of a wrap bill, so more hours means a higher price.
What is the cheapest way to wrap a truck?
A partial wrap. Wrapping the hood, roof and tailgate, or doing a two-tone with the lower body only, costs $500–$2,000 and covers the panels that get the most attention. For work trucks, a partial commercial wrap on the doors and tailgate with cut vinyl lettering delivers most of the branding for a third of the price of a full print.
How long does a truck wrap last?
The same as a car wrap: 5–7 years for premium cast film with reasonable care, shorter for trucks that live outdoors in hot, high-UV climates or that see gravel roads and job sites. Printed commercial wraps use a laminate over the print and are typically rated 3–5 years outdoors. Horizontal surfaces such as the hood and roof age fastest.
Is PPF or a wrap better for a truck?
They solve different problems. A vinyl wrap changes the color or carries branding; paint protection film is clear urethane that absorbs rock chips. Many truck owners do PPF on the front end (hood, bumper, fenders, mirrors) for $900–$2,000 and a color-change wrap over the rest, or a wrap alone on a work truck where chips are cosmetic rather than a resale concern.
