Pollitt Signs and Graphics — New Castle County
Full wraps, partial wraps, and truck lettering — designed, printed, and installed in-house on premium vinyl built to last 10 years. Serving businesses in Wilmington and New Castle County since 1947.
Pollitt Signs and Graphics has been building signs and vehicle graphics in Havre de Grace since 1947, and every fleet job is designed, printed, and installed in-house at our shop — nothing gets outsourced. We offer full wraps, partial wraps, cut vinyl lettering, and perforated window film, all printed with UV-resistant inks on premium vinyl rated for a 10-year life expectancy. Our certified applicators have handled complete fleet programs, including a full wrap job on 12 service vans for a local HVAC company, so every vehicle in your fleet matches from the first van to the last.
Wilmington's Market Street corridor, the Riverfront development at the Christina River, and the surrounding corporate office districts present very different signage contexts. The Riverfront's mixed-use character calls for modern illuminated channel letters and LED monument signs; the historic Market Street district requires sensitivity to the surrounding 19th-century architectural fabric and Delaware's historic review process. Our permit team manages Delaware Department of Transportation coordination where required for signs visible from I-95 or Route 202, and handles New Castle County Land Use submissions for the commercial sign permit review process, which runs 4–6 weeks for most standard applications.
All fleet & vehicle graphics installations in Wilmington require sign permits through the New Castle County Department of Land Use. As a New Castle County sign company with over seven decades of permitting experience, our dedicated permit department handles the application, setback compliance review, and any variance requests. New Castle County's Department of Land Use generally reviews standard commercial sign permit applications in about 4–6 weeks. Delaware's sign code calculates maximum allowable size by street frontage and sets specific setback and illumination rules that differ from Maryland's, so oversized or illuminated requests commonly trigger a variance, and signs proposed within New Castle's historic district must also clear the town's historic area commission before a permit is issued. You focus on your business; we handle the paperwork.
Wilmington's dense urban commercial fabric shapes how we approach fleet & vehicle graphics here. City fleet vehicles spend more time parked or moving slowly in traffic than at highway speed, so we prioritize wrap legibility for pedestrians and adjacent drivers at a standstill over long-distance visibility.
