Alachua County at a glance
A university city with a county wrapped around it
Alachua County runs on the University of Florida. With more than 50,000 students, a major academic medical center and a research economy, UF shapes Gainesville's calendar, traffic and spending. Santa Fe College adds thousands more students. On a football Saturday, Ben Hill Griffin Stadium holds more people than most Florida cities, and they arrive on a small number of roads.
Gainesville is the county seat and regional center for healthcare, shopping and government across a dozen rural counties. Around it are small cities with their own identities: Alachua and its biotech park, Newberry and its youth sports complex, High Springs and its river outfitters, Micanopy and its antiques. A campaign here can speak to students, to medical and university staff, or to the wider region that drives in on I-75, US 441 and SR 26.

Your final rate depends on:
- Campaign duration and number of days
- Daily hours on the road
- Truck type (digital LED or static)
- Travel and mobilization
- Route complexity
- Event parking or staging requirements

Alachua County mobile billboard FAQ
Can you run a truck around UF on a game day?
Yes. Roads closest to the stadium close before kickoff, so we work University Avenue, 13th Street, Archer Road and 34th Street where traffic is open and tailgaters are walking.
Do you charge travel to bring a truck to Alachua County?
Yes. Rates start around $1,300 per day and mobilization from South Florida is itemized on top of that. The final quote also reflects hours per day, truck type, dates and any event staging requirements.
When is the best time to reach students?
Late August move-in through September, and again in January. Evening dayparts in Midtown and downtown add nightlife exposure.
Do you cover the smaller cities?
Yes. Alachua, Newberry and High Springs are each 20 to 30 minutes from Gainesville and can be added to a full-day booking.
How far does the truck travel?
About five hours from our Hollywood, FL base via the Turnpike and I-75. Travel is itemized, and we recommend booking two or more days.
Can I run more than one ad on the truck?
On digital LED trucks, yes. You can rotate several still or video spots and change them between days. We send exact screen specs when your Alachua County booking is confirmed.
