Free truck SVG files

One old truck for every season

The round-nosed pickup is the truck people cut most, and it changes with the calendar: a fir tree in December, hearts in February, flowers in spring, fireworks in July and pumpkins in October. Here it is the same truck each time, so a set of seasonal signs matches. The load stands in the bed and is welded to it, which means nothing has to be lined up after cutting.

The truck is 100 mm long and about 48 mm tall when empty, and taller with a load. The quarter-light bar in the cab window is about 2 mm wide at that size and the door lines are 1.5 mm. In vinyl it cuts cleanly from about 70 mm long. For wood and acrylic cut it at 150 mm or more. The layered red truck is meant for card or vinyl in four colours and does not need to hold together as one piece.

Working trucks and blank panels

The semi trailer, the tailgate and the monogram board are left blank on purpose. Add a name, a haulage firm or an initial in your cutting software. The dump truck, tow truck, flatbed and mail truck are simpler shapes with bigger wheels, drawn for children’s rooms, birthday shirts and driver gifts.

How to open the files

• Cricut Design Space: choose Upload, pick the SVG, and add it to the canvas. Set the width you want; the shape is already welded.
• Silhouette Studio: Designer Edition and above open the SVG. The free Basic Edition does not, so open the DXF instead.
• LightBurn, xTool Creative Space and Glowforge: import the SVG, then set the layer to cut, score or engrave.
• Inkscape, Illustrator and Affinity: open the SVG. It is a plain filled path, so you can recolour it, add a stroke or combine it with your own work.
• Printing or sublimation: use the PNG, which has a transparent background.

Each design page lists the file’s narrowest part at seven sizes, so you can tell whether it will survive at the size you plan to cut.
