What Is a Wind Skirt?
Wind skirts are the aerodynamic panels mounted along the lower length of a semi trailer, between the landing gear and the rear axles. Fleets fit them to smooth airflow under the trailer, which reduces drag and cuts fuel burn on the highway.
Wind Skirts are the aerodynamic panels mounted along the lower length of a trailer, and they double as prime, eye-level advertising space. Because they sit closer to the ground, skirt graphics land right in the sightline of drivers in adjacent lanes and pedestrians at crossings. They are an affordable way to add impressions, extend the reach of a side or full-wrap buy, or run a focused message on their own. Ready-made skirt designs are available for a fast launch, or our team can produce custom artwork to match your brand.

Impressions Where Eyes Already Are
A billboard works overhead. A skirt works down low, right in the lane beside you and at the curb. That is where a lot of your audience is looking anyway.
Eye-Level in the Next Lane
Skirts sit low on the trailer, right where drivers in adjacent lanes are already looking. Your message lands in the natural sightline instead of high overhead.
Seen at Crosswalks and Curbs
When a trailer waits at a light or eases through a metro corridor, skirt graphics face pedestrians and roadside audiences at close range, where a short message reads clearly.

Wind skirt advertising, answered
What brands ask before they add skirt impressions to a campaign.
What is a wind skirt ad?+
A wind skirt ad is a graphic printed on the aerodynamic side panels mounted along the lower length of a semi trailer. The skirts sit at eye level for drivers in adjacent lanes and for pedestrians at crosswalks, so your message lands low and close instead of high overhead. Across the Mobile Hwy Ads network of 21,000+ trucks, wind skirts are the placement: the whole campaign rides at eye level.
Do wind skirts really save fuel?+
Yes. Wind skirts exist to smooth airflow under the trailer, which cuts aerodynamic drag and lowers fuel burn on the highway. Fleets fit them for that efficiency benefit. Adding your graphics puts your brand on hardware that is already helping the truck run cleaner, a real sustainability angle you can point to.
What sizes do wind skirt ads come in?+
Skirt panels span most of the trailer length and sit below the height of a full side panel. They run on the long trailers where the aero panels are fitted, and we print each set to the exact trailer dimensions. Our design team provides print-ready templates so artwork fits cleanly on every panel.
Can wind skirts carry a full campaign on their own?+
Yes. Wind skirts are the placement we specialize in and one of the most affordable ways to put a brand on the highway. Our trusted print suppliers and professional certified installation produce skirt graphics that read as one clean campaign, and you can scale from a single regional flight to a national program.
How much do wind skirt ads cost?+
Wind skirts are priced per campaign based on the number of trucks, markets, and length. Because the panel is smaller than a full trailer side, they are one of the most cost-efficient ways to put a brand on the highway. Request a quote and a specialist responds within one business day.
