Street Poster Advertising & Poster Size Guide

When it comes to street poster advertising, size matters. Choosing the right poster dimensions can be the difference between blending into the background or getting real attention from your outdoor advertising campaign. At Street Poster Ads, we help brands maximize visibility by offering the most effective poster sizes for wheat pasting (also called wild posting) campaigns in NYC, Los Angeles, Miami, Philadelphia, Chicago, and other major cities.

Standard Poster Sizes in Street Poster Advertising

Pole Snipes (8" × 12")

  • Great for placement on street poles. Especially when there aren’t many traditional boards nearby.

  • Show up on every corner for max saturation.

Medium Posters (24" × 36")

  • The industry standard for wheat pasting.

  • Big enough to stand out on construction sites and scaffolding.

  • Minimum campaign size: 300 posters.

  • Ideal balance between cost and impact.

Large Posters (48" × 72") – Jumbos

  • High-impact visuals perfect for making a statement.

  • Minimum campaign size: 100 posters.

  • Work well for fashion, product launches, and campaigns that need to showcase imagery.

Mixed Campaigns

Many of our clients combine standard posters with jumbo posters. This layered approach allows for great patterns and story telling in your street poster ad campaign.

How Street Poster Campaigns Work

  1. Creative & Planning
    You send us your final designs, and we’ll strategize placements for maximum visibility.

  2. Location Selection
    Posters are placed on construction sites, scaffolding, and vetted walls in high-traffic neighborhoods. You can request specific areas, and we’ll guide you to the most effective spots.

  3. Execution
    Our in-house teams handle installation. Turnaround is typically 4–5 business days or so from receiving artwork.

  4. Tracking
    Every campaign includes live photos and maps so you can see exactly where your posters go.
