Van Livery Removal Altrincham

Old livery on Altrincham vans and why it matters

Plenty of the vans working around Altrincham belong to trades, estate agents, florists and food businesses who change vehicles every few years. When a van is sold or handed back, the lettering has to go. Leave it on and the new owner inherits your phone number, or the leasing company charges for removal and any marks the adhesive leaves.

Vinyl that has spent years in the sun on the A56 or parked at Broadheath goes brittle. Pulled off cold, it tears into small flakes and can lift weak paint with it. Removed properly, with gentle heat and patience, it comes away in larger pieces and the paint underneath is left as it was. The same approach we use in the city is described on our van livery removal Manchester page.

Getting a price without driving anywhere

Most removal jobs can be quoted from photos. Take a picture of each side, the back doors and the bonnet, plus a close-up of the oldest or most cracked graphic, and send them by WhatsApp or email with the make and model. We reply with a fixed price and a date.

From our office in Cheetham Hill, Altrincham is roughly 35 to 45 minutes by road via the A56 or the M60, depending on traffic, and the van can also be brought to us in M8 by arrangement.

Lease returns from Altrincham and Hale

Lease agreements usually ask for the vehicle back in its original condition. That means no lettering and no glue lines along the panel edges. If your return date is fixed, tell us when you send the photos so we can book the removal with enough time before the van is collected.

Some returns are part of a wider change. If the replacement van needs your branding, we can letter it straight after, using our vehicle lettering or van graphics service, so you are only off the road once.
