I think pick-ups, vans etc. are fine because they are vehicles that are at home in residential neighbourhoods already. A big logoed flatbed truck plastered with Atco logos? Definitely not okay and particularly rude when you're putting it front of somebody else's house and not your own. Small, single-operator businesses with a company vehicle are just fine IMO, but not a large corporation.
I also don't like when somebody is operating a business like a landscaping business and they have three or four trucks and a trailer with like a bobcat or something parked in front of their house everyday. Fata that, I'm calling bylaw. One little Ford Transit for your dog poo cleaning business? I have zero problem with that and, in fact, find it kind of interesting to know what you do.
