The Complete Guide to Vehicle Advertising in Glasgow: Costs, Impact, and Innovation

Exploring the real costs and effectiveness of vehicle advertising in Glasgow, including traditional methods and new community-driven approaches.

Understanding Vehicle Advertising in Glasgow

For businesses looking to increase their visibility in Glasgow, vehicle advertising presents a unique opportunity. With over 1.8 million residents in Greater Glasgow and thousands of daily commuters, the potential for brand exposure is significant.

Traditional vs. Community-Powered Approaches

Historically, vehicle advertising in Glasgow has meant either:

  • Wrapping commercial fleet vehicles (£1,500-£3,000 per vehicle)
  • Advertising on taxis (£800-£1,200 per month)
  • Bus advertising campaigns (£2,000+ per month)

At Vehiclix, we're pioneering a more accessible approach: connecting businesses with local drivers who turn their daily commutes into advertising opportunities. Our packages start from £210 per vehicle per month with a minimum of 5 vehicles, offering:

  • Professional 36"x20" vinyl stickers on both sides of each vehicle
  • Authentic community presence through local drivers
  • 6-month minimum commitment for optimal results
  • Support for the local economy

Understanding Coverage and Impact

Our transparent approach means being clear about what advertisers can expect:

  • 396,000 monthly impressions with our 5-car starter package
  • £15.91 cost per thousand impressions (CPM)
  • GPS-tracked coverage across Glasgow's busiest areas
  • Natural exposure during peak commuting hours
