Deliveries Information Signs
A Deliveries Information Sign gives drivers, couriers and site visitors a clear place to head when they arrive. Used at goods entrances, yards, warehouses and service doors, it helps reduce delay, wrong turns and avoidable interruptions by making the delivery point obvious.
Best Places to Position Your Deliveries Sign
Install this sign where a delivery driver must choose quickly: goods-in doors, loading entrances, yard approaches, service gates and reception alternatives. Position it before the turning point so drivers see the instruction before they stop in the wrong place.
Viewing Distance Guidance
Choose the size around how early drivers need to read it. Smaller signs suit close approach points; larger signs are better where vehicles approach from further across a yard or entrance lane.
| Size option | Practical viewing guidance | Best used for |
|---|---|---|
| H 150 x W 450 mm | Close-range reading, usually around 3–6 metres | Doors, reception alternatives and narrow service entrances |
| H 200 x W 600 mm | Longer approach reading, usually around 6–10 metres | Yards, loading entrances and wider delivery approaches |
Expected Safety Outcomes After Installation
Once fitted in the right position, this sign changes driver behaviour by removing uncertainty at arrival. It helps delivery drivers head towards the correct point first time, rather than blocking entrances, stopping at reception or asking busy staff where to go.

Installation Guidance
❌ Fitting the sign after the turning point, where drivers have already committed to the wrong entrance.
❌ Placing it low behind parked vehicles, pallets, skips or stacked goods.
❌ Using the smaller size on a wide yard approach where drivers need earlier reading time.
❌ It is not a traffic control sign and should not replace barriers, road markings or booking-in rules.
❌ It is not ideal on its own where drivers need arrows, bay numbers or timed delivery instructions.
❌ It should not be used as a warning sign for reversing vehicles, forklifts or moving plant.
✅ Fit it before the first decision point so drivers can act before stopping.
✅ Keep it in the driver’s direct line of sight and away from temporary obstructions.
✅ Use suitable wall, fence or post fittings, allowing for cable ties or post mount fittings where required.
