Propane Truck Decals: Door Lettering and Logo for Delivery Trucks

Propane truck decals go on the cab doors of a delivery truck or service van, and they should show your company name, the word "propane" and a phone number in letters a homeowner can read from the porch. The tank body is a bigger surface and a separate job, so this page sticks to doors, with sample layouts and a blue flame logo.

Who watches for the truck

A delivery customer is unlike a passerby. They know a truck is coming, and they look out the window to see it arrive. A neighbor may glance at the same truck and wonder who it belongs to.

For that reason:

• Print the name exactly as it appears on a customer's bill or statement.
• Make the phone number large enough to read from the end of a driveway.
• Skip long taglines. A homeowner needs a match to a name, not a slogan.

Propane delivery truck lettering: what to print

Propane companies often cover a wide rural territory, so a place name is worth space on the door. A short list covers it:

• Company name.
• "Propane," plus a short word like "Delivery" if you offer it.
• Phone number.
• A county or "serving" line.

Prices, brands and tank sizes change, and a printed line cannot follow them.

Three sample doors

All names and numbers here are made up.

Name and number. The Business Name + Phone decal is $30.99 per decal, and it is the simpler choice for a truck that only needs to show who you are:

• Cedar Ridge Propane
• Home delivery
• (555) 015-2283

Name, city and numbers. The Custom USDOT Logo puts four lines on one $32 decal:

• Cedar Ridge Propane
• Marlow Junction
• USDOT 1234567
• MC 123456

Whether a given truck needs a USDOT number depends on weight and use. Our guide on who needs a USDOT number is the place to begin, and the display rules page covers placement if one applies.

A fuller door. The door builder can arrange a name, a service line, a county and a phone number, and previews the result on a truck door before you pay.

Propane delivery truck logo: the blue flame

The Blue Flame Propane Logo is $120 per door. A blue flame, drawn as two curved strokes with an orange dot at its base, sits above two lines of heavy blue capitals. The sample reads "Blueflame Propane." We fit your name to the design and send a proof before anything prints.

The flame is the picture people associate with the trade, so it needs no explanation. The logo has no phone number, so order that on a separate decal.

Blue ink on a work truck

Blue is a strong color on white, silver or yellow trucks and a weak one on dark paint, where it sinks into the background. If your truck is dark, the rectangle behind the logo does the work, so look at the proof carefully.

For lettering decals, Blue lettering adds $2 per decal. The optional contour cut for the logo adds $10 per door and trims the decal to the flame and capitals, with no rectangle around them. Choose it for a white or light truck.

Tank trucks, service vans and seasonal trucks

Propane fleets often mix large delivery trucks with smaller vans and pickups. The same name and layout across them helps customers recognize any vehicle that arrives. Our decals are up to 24 inches wide and suit cab doors and flat panels. We sell decals, not wraps, so a tank body is not part of this. Measure first with the truck door decal size guide.

A truck you only use part of the year might suit a removable sign. Our guide to magnetic signs covers when that works.
