    Hey everyone. Without a lengthy post or long back story, just wondering what you all would suggest if you were only leasing on to a carrier (friend of mine) short term. Just throw up a piece of paper and attach with duct tape? Any other ideas? Or another inexpensive way of going about it?

    Thank you in advance for your replies and Happy Holidays

    I was recently looking at numbering options since we are about to start bringing on OOs.
    Dotnumberstore.com has 2 line options (name and dot number) for about $14 each.

    For super temporary though i might just print up the numbers and have it laminated at office depot or something and duct tape it to the truck.

    The flip flop and sweatpants crowd just write on a piece of cardboard and tape it to their raggedy volvo usually pulling an amazon trailer behind them

    Lord help us.

    Go to a graphics place and spend $100.

    Just try, I mean - have a crack at appearing half way professional.

    No no, please go the old pizza box route. It keeps the guys at the weigh station busy so I can keep the wheels turning!

    That's what I did. Spent a little cash up front for some lettering that looks like I give a crap. Something something book, cover, first impressions....

    Go onto Fiverr.com - get them to create you a decal for $9.99. Take that file to a decal shop and they will print it for you for $10-$30.

    Slap it on, peel it off when you’re finished.
