Cheap Truck Decals: Real Prices and Where the Money Goes

Cheap truck decals here start at $18.99 for a single-line decal, and a one-decal order comes to $26.98 once the flat $7.99 shipping is added. Most trucks carry a decal on each door, which makes it $37.98 plus shipping, or $45.97 in all. The rest of this page shows where the money goes and which choices you control.

How to get cheap truck decals: start with the order math

Four orders, at the prices on our product pages:

• One single-line decal: $18.99 + $7.99 shipping = $26.98
• Two single-line decals: $37.98 + $7.99 = $45.97
• Two two-line decals at $22.99 each: $45.98 + $7.99 = $53.97
• Four single-line decals: $75.96 + $7.99 = $83.95

Shipping is one flat fee per order, not per decal. A second order a week later pays $7.99 again, so put everything you need in one cart. Orders of $99 or more ship free, counted before any promo code.

Five single-line decals come to $94.95 and still pay shipping, for $102.94. A sixth takes the order to $113.94 with no shipping, so it adds only $11.00 to what you pay. Do not buy a decal you cannot use just to cross the line.

What makes a decal cost more

Four things move the price, and you see each one before you pay.

• Lines of text. The USDOT Decal Sticker and the Single Regulation Number decal are $18.99. The two-line USDOT + MC decal is $22.99, so the second line costs $4. In the door builder, lines are priced one by one: +$9 for a company name, +$6 for a city, +$4 for MC, +$3 for each extra line.
• Width and lettering color. In the builder, 18 inch adds $6, 24 inch adds $14 and red or blue lettering adds $2 per decal. On the ready-made product pages the price stays the same at every width and color, so price your lines both ways.
• Designed artwork. The ready-made logo designs are $120 per door, and the optional contour cut adds $10 per door. That is a different product from lettering.
• Quantity. Every price is per decal, so two doors cost double.

Where the price stays low

• You apply it yourself. Installation is DIY, with a printed instruction sheet and a link to the install video in the package, so no installer's labor sits in the total. Whether that suits you is the question in DIY or installer.
• On product pages the width is free to choose, up to 24 inches.
• Choosing Set of 2 is plain doubling: two matching decals at exactly twice the single price, with no bundle markup in either direction.

What the price still includes is 3M and Oracal vinyl and the 3-year guarantee: a decal that peels or comes off is replaced free.

Where you can trim an order

Drop any line the truck does not need. For a truck covered by the federal rule, the marking is the carrier's name and USDOT number on both sides (49 CFR 390.21), and FMCSA says no marking requirement exists for an MC number. Whether your truck is covered turns on weight and use, which who needs a USDOT number walks through.

If a truck needs the name and the number, one two-line decal costs less than two separate ones. The Company Name + USDOT decal is $27.99 per side. A $18.99 name decal plus a $18.99 number decal is $37.98 per side, so the two-line version saves $9.99 per side, or $19.98 for both doors.

Two more trims: measure the door before paying for width, and use promo code 10OFFNOW, which takes 10% off the decals. Starting a carrier or running one truck? The new trucking company and owner-operator pages show layouts for each.

When cheap turns expensive

Decals are printed exactly as typed. A wrong digit in a USDOT number means a reprint at full price, because the guarantee does not cover a decal that is exactly what you entered but not what you needed (refunds and returns). Copy the number from your registration and read the preview twice.
