Handyman Advertising

Look like the handyman people trust.

Handyman work happens inside people's homes, so customers want to know who they're letting in. A handyman car magnet on your truck, with your name, your number, and the word handyman, shows the neighbors and the customer that a real business is on the job. Stickers carry the same look onto your toolboxes and equipment cases, wherever the surface is smooth and flat.

Say what you do

Put the word handyman on your magnetic car sign, along with your business name and phone number. If you want certain jobs, add one or two. A moving vehicle gives people only a few seconds, so skip the email address and make the phone number large enough to read from the street.

Look like a business, not a side job

Homeowners notice how a handyman shows up. A clean truck with a clear name and number looks like a working business, sets you apart from someone doing odd jobs on the side, and puts your number in front of the neighbors at every job.

On the job, then off

If your truck is also your personal vehicle, a magnet comes off whenever you need it to, and you can swap in a special or a new service without re-lettering. They hold on steel panels only, and many newer trucks use aluminum panels, so test with a household magnet first. Rules for business advertising on vehicles vary by location, so check your local regulations before you apply one.

Handyman Advertising FAQ

Your business name, your phone number, and the word handyman, so people know what you do. If you want certain jobs, add one or two. A moving vehicle gives people only a few seconds to read a magnetic sign, so a long list of services is hard to read from the street, and an email address is too small to read.

A car magnet puts your name and phone number in front of the neighbors at every job and in front of everyone who sees your truck on the road. It works as one part of how people find you, alongside referrals, reviews, and a website, and results vary by area and design.

They suit different situations. Lettering is permanent, which suits a truck dedicated to the work with business details that won't change. A magnet is removable and reusable, so it suits a truck you also drive for personal use or lease, or a business that is still testing advertising. Rules for business advertising on vehicles vary by location, so check your local regulations before you choose either.

It works on steel panels. Aluminum and fiberglass panels won't hold a magnet, even when they look like metal, and many newer trucks use aluminum panels. To check, hold a household magnet to the spot where you'd put it. If it holds firmly across the whole area, the surface is steel. The entire magnetic back needs full, flat contact with the panel.

Requirements for business advertising on a vehicle vary by location and can affect registration and insurance. Check your local regulations before you apply a magnet.

Yes. Because a magnet is removable, you can put a different magnet on for a special, a seasonal job, or a new service, and take it off when it's over. Each design is its own magnet.

A magnet holds because its entire magnetic back is in full contact with the vehicle's surface, so dirt, grit, or a crease in the panel between them makes it weaker. Clean and dry both the magnet and the panel before you apply it, remove it regularly to clean and dry both again, and take it off before an automatic car wash. Trapped moisture and dirt can also mark the paint.

You can choose a pre-made template and add your business details, or upload your own design. If you upload a design, we accept digital design files only, not photos of a printed design.

Car magnets are sold individually, not in pairs. Order one for each door or panel you want to brand. If you run more than one truck, order for each truck.

Our stickers adhere to smooth, flat surfaces. Check that the spot you have in mind is smooth and flat before ordering. They're not suited to ridged or uneven surfaces.

Every order is printed in our Medfield, MA shop, serving the Greater Boston area and Metrowest and shipping nationwide. Most orders are processed and shipped within 1 business day. Local pickup is also available if you're nearby.
