CAUTION over WIDE TURNS, or two lines you type, for a box truck or trailer. Preview it, then order. $22.99 per decal.
A two-line courtesy decal for a vehicle that needs extra room on turns: CAUTION on the top line and WIDE TURNS below it, set up in the builder as the sample. The wording is your choice, and we print exactly what you type. It suits a box truck with a long body, a hauler pulling a trailer, or a flatbed carrying a long load. It is $22.99 per decal in 3M or Oracal vinyl, and the Set of 2 option is $45.98: two identical decals, one for each side of the vehicle.
This decal is a message you choose to display. It is not a marking that any rule requires, it does not replace a marking that a rule asks for, and we do not say it satisfies anything. Its only job is to tell people near the truck that it swings wide at the corners. We make no claim that it reduces accidents or changes anyone's liability. The real work of a safe turn happens in the cab, with the mirrors, a slow approach and a clear view of the corner, and the decal is one extra note on the outside of the vehicle. If your truck is covered by the federal marking rule, 49 CFR 390.21 asks for a legal name and a USDOT number on both sides. This decal carries neither, so read the USDOT number display rules page before you decide what else goes on the truck.
Two lines is the usual setup, but both lines are free text. CAUTION over WIDE TURNS is the sample, and you could type CAUTION over LONG LOAD or any other pair of short lines that describes your vehicle. Whatever you type prints as typed, so check spelling and capital letters in the live preview. The colors on the product page are samples. Sticker backgrounds are White, Black, Yellow, Silver, Red or Blue, lettering is Black, White, Red or Blue, and the width is 12, 18 or 24 inches. Picking a different color or width does not change the price on this page. For a pair that contrasts sharply, such as White lettering on a Black or Blue background, compare the options in the fonts and colors guide.
Prep and installation are a do-it-yourself job. Clean the panel, let it dry and work in shade if you can. The install page links the video that comes with the printed sheet, and the install guide covers the steps. The contour cut, at +$5 per decal, cuts each line close around its own lettering, so CAUTION and WIDE TURNS come off as two separate pieces instead of one rectangle. For a trailer with two rear panels, the Set of 2 covers both, and the box truck decals page covers layouts for box bodies. The three-year guarantee replaces a decal that peels or comes off, and tracking arrives by email one to two days after you order.
Shipping is $7.99 per order, free over $99, with tracking by email one or two days after you order. Install is DIY with a printed sheet and video link in the box. A 3-year guarantee covers a free replacement if it peels or comes off. Details: shipping, install, refunds and returns.
Two lines of text that you type. The builder sample is CAUTION on the top line and WIDE TURNS below it, and you can change either line to suit your truck. The print follows your entry, so proofread spelling and capital letters in the live preview, then order at $22.99. The width and colors you pick do not change the price. If you want the wording on both sides of the vehicle, the Set of 2 at $45.98 gives you two identical decals.
No. We do not say that any rule requires this decal, and it does not replace a marking that a rule asks for. It is a message you choose to add. FMCSA and your state's commercial vehicle agency can tell you which markings apply to your truck. Rules change, so check the current wording before you rely on it. The USDOT number display rules page is the short version of the federal marking rule, and this decal has neither the name nor the number that the rule looks for.
We make no claim that it does. A decal is a note on the outside of the truck. It cannot change how a truck turns, how much room another vehicle takes or whether the other driver looks. Plan wide turns with the mirrors, a slow approach and a spotter when the space is tight, and treat the decal as one reminder for people around you, not as a safety device or a legal shield.
Choose a flat, clean spot near the back of the body, such as the rear panel or the side panel close to the rear corner, where a driver beside or behind you sees it before the turn. Keep the decal off door seams, lights, the plate and any latch. Measure the panel first, pick the width that fits, and compare the layout in the preview. Every width costs the same, so the choice comes down to the space you have.
You can add this decal to a truck that needs a USDOT number, but it carries no USDOT number, so it cannot be the marking the truck needs. The marking itself, as 49 CFR 390.21 lays it out, goes on both sides of the truck and pairs the legal name with the USDOT number. Products that print the number are the USDOT Decal Sticker and the Company Name + USDOT Decal. Ask FMCSA or your state agency whether your truck is covered.

I had quite a few questions before ordering, all of which were answered promptly on a Sunday, which I was so thankful for. My order arrived much earlier than expected and the quality is amazing! I will definitely be ordering again in the future.
They were super easy to work with and even did a custom decal order for me that shipped with my truck decals. The designs were made to order and adjustments were made as requested. Great response times as well. Extremely pleased with my order!
Good quality, worked with me to make sure we were happy with final product, highly recommend!
