Irrigation Truck Decals for Sprinkler and Landscape Water Crews

Irrigation truck decals need to say "sprinklers" before they say anything clever. People see an irrigation truck parked at a curb or in a driveway while the crew is in the yard, and they want to know in one glance that you fix or install sprinkler systems. A short name, a clear service line and a phone number do that, and a logo adds recognition if the name is short enough to carry one. We make decals, not wraps.

What the door should answer

An irrigation company has a naming problem: "Greenflow" could be a landscaper, a lawn service or a pool company. The service line does the work. Good lines are short and literal:

• Sprinkler repair and installation
• Irrigation and drip systems
• Backflow testing, only if you actually offer it

Put the phone number on its own line, large. Someone watching a crew work next door may want a number, and a phone number is easier to remember than a web address.

Where the lettering fits on a work truck

Irrigation crews often run pickups, sometimes with a toolbox, a utility body or a trailer carrying pipe or a trencher. Hose reels, tool bins and ladder racks eat into the side space, so measure the flat panel on the door before you pick a width. Our truck door decal size guide explains how to measure. If your rig pulls a heavy trailer, read who needs a USDOT number so you know the question to ask. Whether a truck needs one depends on weight and use.

Sample text for three crews

All names are made up.

One-truck repair business. The Business Name + Phone decal holds a name, a short service line and a number:

• Ridgeline Sprinklers
• Repair and Winterizing
• (555) 011-5208

Install crew with a service area. The Make-Your-Own 5-Line decal takes five lines of free text:

• Ridgeline Irrigation
• Sprinkler Systems and Drip
• New Installs and Repairs
• Maple Heights and Orchard Hill
• (555) 011-5208

Logo on one door, text on the other. The doors can differ, so the logo can lead on the driver side.

The Sprinkler Arc logo

The Sprinkler Arc Irrigation Logo shows a sprinkler head with blue spray arcs and a green leaf, above light-weight green capitals reading your name and "irrigation." We fit your name to it and send a proof to approve before printing, at $120 per door.

It tells people the trade without any words, which is useful when your business name is a surname. One thing to check on the proof: the lettering is a thin, even stroke rather than a heavy one. Thin lettering fades faster at a distance, so a short name works better than a long one. The phone number still goes on a separate decal, since the logo carries only the name.

Contour cut

On logo designs a contour cut costs $10 per door. Instead of a rectangle, the decal is cut to the outline of the sprinkler, arcs and letters. On a white truck a rectangle blends in anyway. On a green, blue or dark truck, the contour cut keeps a box from appearing behind the arcs. Our guide on die-cut letters vs rectangular decals compares both approaches.

A color tip for water-themed trucks

The standard lettering colors on our text decals are Black, White, Red and Blue, so a green is not on the list for the plain decals. Blue lettering on a White sticker background suits an irrigation truck and costs $2 more in the builder. On a dark or green truck, use White lettering on a Black or Blue background, and keep the phone number in the same color as the name. The door builder previews each combination on a door.
