$250 to $450 for a fitted windshield and $200 to $500 for a door, quarter or back window, on cars, vans and pickups alike. Newport is about 15 minutes from the shop at 3520 N Market Street, and with listed hours running around the clock, the first call about a vehicle that has to be working by seven does not have to wait for morning.
Commercial vehicles complicate glass in ways a passenger car does not, and Newport has plenty of them. A panel van may have fixed bonded side glass instead of a dropping window, a bulkhead pane behind the seats, and rear door glass in two halves. A pickup often has a sliding rear window, which is really two panes in a frame and is ordered as an assembly rather than as glass. Older work vehicles frequently have vent panes and quarter lights that were discontinued years ago. None of that is a problem, but all of it is a reason to have the exact model, body style and year to hand instead of describing the van by its colour.
For ordinary cars the process is quicker to explain. Identify the opening, front or rear, driver or passenger side; establish whether the pane is laminated or tempered, tinted or clear, heated or plain; then price it and check availability. Common panes are frequently same-day. Anything tied to a trim level or an option pack is an order with a date attached. What you should never get is a figure that changes once the vehicle is on the ramp, which is why the questions are asked before the quote rather than after.

Around Newport the practical question is usually which vehicle goes first. If a household or a small firm has a car and a van both waiting on glass, the van is the one costing money every hour it stands, so that is the one that gets the first slot and, where possible, the on-site visit. The yards and industrial lots on the Route 141 side have space to work in, which makes them straightforward to attend; the narrow older streets nearer the river do not. There is also a scheduling reality worth using: an early start beats a mid-morning one here, because traffic through the town builds with the warehouse shifts rather than with the school run.
Same service, same price, other Wilmington neighborhoods:
Yes. Windshields, door glass, bonded side panes and rear door glass on vans are regular work, and pickups with sliding rear windows are handled as an assembly rather than as a loose pane. The main difference is parts: commercial glass is less commonly stocked than passenger glass, so the lead time question matters more. Give the model, body length, roof height and year when you ring and you will get a realistic date rather than an optimistic one.
If the pane is in stock, a side or back window is roughly an hour of fitting and the vehicle leaves straight afterwards, since there is nothing to cure. A windshield adds the safe drive-away time, which is around an hour in mild dry conditions and longer when it is cold or damp. If the glass has to be ordered, that is a day or more, and you are told which of those situations you are in on the first call rather than after the vehicle is already off the road.
