Custom printed large format gear for Albany businesses, schools, teams, churches, and crews. Proofs in 24 hours, delivered in 5 to 7 days.
Weatherproof 13oz vinyl banners, retractable stands, and yard signs. Hemmed, grommeted, and printed fast. For Albany, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Albany at about 19,000 people on 1.8 square miles of California, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Berkeley, CA (2 mi), Kensington, CA (2 mi), El Cerrito, CA (2 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. For the military community, Coast Guard Base Alameda sits about 11 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Albany counted against your roster.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of California mixes Albany crews with neighbors like Berkeley, 2 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Memorial signage treated as the most important order in the building. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Four-by-eight photo banners for the pier, hangar, and parade field, printed fast because return dates move. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Signage for race day and fair day: sponsors, directions, registration. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Pull-up stands that turn a folding table into a professional booth. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Corrugated signs by the stack for fundraisers and campaigns. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Hem-and-grommet outdoor vinyl sized to the fence line. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Albany customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Albany customers, these three earn their keep.
Volunteer and staff tees to match the signage, priced for handing out by the box. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Cold-month events call for fleece on the crew, not just cotton. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Banners and matching shirts in one order share a proof, a deadline, and a delivery date. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
Budget planning for Albany customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pack | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pack | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pack | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pack | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pack | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pack | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Options price per piece: back prints at the listed rate (falling to $3 at 25 and $2 at 50), oversized full-body fronts at $3 under 25 pieces or $2 above, and 2XL-plus sizes at $6 under 25 pieces or $4 above. Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
From approval, count 5 to 7 business days to your door. If the event is sooner, ask about rush and get a straight yes or no.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Delivery to Albany addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
Completely. Build the design in the Design Lab and the full order total sits on screen the whole time; no email, no call, no waiting.
The standard clock is 5 to 7 business days covering both production and delivery. Many orders can run faster; name the date and we will confirm or decline honestly.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
Large runs are the core business: hundreds of pieces, mixed sizes, multiple colors, one named contact who owns it from first proof to the delivery scan.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
Finality is the nature of custom work: no returns once it prints. Your protections live earlier in the process, in the free proof and the written approval that nothing skips.
