Truck advertising, frequently asked questions
Indicative rates can start from AED 35,000 a week for a static truck and AED 12,000 a day for an LED truck. The final quote depends on the vehicle, operating hours, route, dates, production and approvals. Ask for an itemised quote before comparing suppliers.
An LED truck carries a digital screen, sometimes called a digital billboard truck or mobile digital billboard, and is used for video media and maximum attention at venues or events. A static truck uses printed vinyl or signage branding and can be single, double or triple-sided for full-scale visibility. LED trucks cost more than static mobile truck advertising.
One available screen format measures 384 cm wide by 179 cm high. Sizes vary by vehicle, so artwork or video should be prepared only after the operator confirms the final screen specification.

It can be cost-effective for a simple awareness or event message, but it is not automatically cheaper or better than every other format. Compare the campaign objective, route, operating time, production cost and measurement plan with fixed outdoor and digital alternatives.
Route and timing choices can support a broad location or commuter audience. This is still an outdoor medium, so it cannot provide the individual audience precision of digital advertising. The approved operating plan should match the places and times relevant to the campaign.
