Custom printed large format gear for Coal City 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 Coal City, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 5,800 people spread over 5.8 square miles, Coal City gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Diamond, IL (2 mi), Carbon Hill, IL (2 mi), Braidwood, IL (3 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Naval Station Great Lakes sits about 75 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to Coal City.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of Illinois mixes Coal City crews with neighbors like Diamond, 2 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Corrugated signs by the stack for fundraisers and campaigns. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Outdoor vinyl hemmed, grommeted, and cut to the fence you plan to hang it on. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Ceremony pieces handled with the gravity the event carries. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Four-by-eight photo banners for the pier, hangar, and parade field, printed fast because return dates move. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The full event kit: sponsor boards, registration signs, and arrows that get people where they belong. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Pull-up stands that turn a folding table into a professional booth. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Coal city customers feel the difference on the first order.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Coal City customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The volunteer-shirt companion: light, matched to the signs, priced for volume. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
When the event is outdoors in November, the staff gear is a hoodie. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Pair the banner with matching tees in the same order: one approval covers everything. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Coal City customers see.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
The first step is just getting the idea out of your head: type it into the quote form or mock it up in the Design Lab, rough edges and all.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
Production plus shipping to Coal City addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Coal City crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
Vector files such as AI, SVG, EPS, and PDF are ideal. A 300 DPI PNG with a transparent background also prints clean. If all you have is a screenshot, we redraw it free.
