Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available for flyers?We offer flyers in a wide range of standard sizes including A6, A5, A4 and DL. A6 is the most popular size for event and nightlife flyers. A5 gives more space for imagery and detail. A4 is ideal for information-heavy campaigns. DL fits standard envelopes and is popular for direct mail. Check the product options when ordering for all available sizes.
What paper stocks are available?Flyers are available on gloss, silk and uncoated paper stocks in a range of weights. Gloss is the most popular choice for bold, vibrant event flyers. Silk gives a premium, photographic finish. Uncoated has a natural feel and is easy to write on — popular for community and information flyers. Not sure which to choose? Visit our Brighton print shop and we can show you samples.
What is the difference between a flyer and a leaflet?Flyers are single flat sheets printed on one or both sides, designed for quick, high-impact distribution. Leaflets are folded formats — such as bi-fold or tri-fold — better suited to conveying more detailed information in a compact format. See our folded leaflets range for folded options.
What is the difference between single-sided and double-sided flyers?Single-sided flyers are printed on one side only — ideal for simple, bold campaigns where the message is clear and concise. Double-sided flyers give you twice the space — popular for restaurant menus, event listings and campaigns with more information to convey. Double-sided printing adds minimal cost and is often worth the upgrade.
Are flyers VAT exempt?Flyers may be zero-rated for VAT depending on the nature of the content and intended use. If your item is considered zero-rated but your submitted artwork is liable for VAT, we will contact you before printing. Please review our VAT guide before placing your order if you are unsure about your VAT status.
How many flyers should I order?This depends entirely on your distribution method and campaign reach. For a local Brighton & Hove event or promotion, 500-1000 flyers is a common starting point. For a wider regional or national campaign, larger quantities offer significantly better value per unit. As a general rule, it is usually more cost-effective to order more than you think you need — the unit price drops considerably at higher quantities.
What is the best way to distribute flyers in Brighton?Popular flyer distribution methods in Brighton & Hove include hand-to-hand distribution on busy streets such as North Street, Western Road and the seafront, leaving stacks in cafes, bars and independent shops, direct mail through letterboxes in target areas, and distribution at events and venues. For maximum impact, combine flyer distribution with a matching poster campaign — see our poster printing range.

I need flyers for a restaurant, bar or nightclub in Brighton — what would you recommend?A6 gloss double-sided flyers are the most popular choice for hospitality and nightlife in Brighton & Hove — compact, affordable and eye-catching. For a premium feel, upgrade to a heavier silk stock.

What is the best flyer size for posting through letterboxes?A5 is the most popular size for letterbox distribution — large enough to be noticed but compact enough to fit through standard letterboxes without folding. DL is also a popular choice as it fits neatly through letterboxes and into envelopes for direct mail campaigns.
