Banners and Signs for Des Plaines: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Des Plaines crews order printed large format gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Des Plaines address in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 58,000 people spread over 14.2 square miles, Des Plaines gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Mount Prospect, IL (3 mi), Park Ridge, IL (3 mi), Rosemont, IL (3 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Naval Station Great Lakes sits about 20 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 Des Plaines counted against your roster.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of Illinois mixes Des Plaines crews with neighbors like Mount Prospect, 3 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Field and yard signs in quantity, printed on corrugated plastic. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Hem-and-grommet outdoor vinyl sized to the fence line. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
Memorial signage treated as the most important order in the building. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Homecoming banners printed quick, because the ship rarely lands on the day first announced. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The full event kit: sponsor boards, registration signs, and arrows that get people where they belong. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Recruiting tables and expo booths that set up in thirty seconds. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Des plaines customers feel the difference on the first order.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
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 Des Plaines customers, these three earn their keep.
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.
The volunteer-shirt companion: light, matched to the signs, priced for volume. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
For outdoor events in cold months, the crew needs more than a tee. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Design help is not an upsell here, it is how orders start. Describe the concept in a sentence, attach whatever reference you have, and within 24 hours a real designer returns a proof drawn as clean vectors, era-correct where it matters. Revisions cost nothing and continue until the proof is right, and your written approval is the only thing that sends it to production.
The Design Lab is there when you want to drive: upload, place, and price the design yourself on the exact garment we print.
Here is what Des Plaines customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Pieces | Total | Each | Ship | Back print add |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
Back prints add per piece at the rate shown, dropping to $3 at 25 pieces and $2 at 50. Oversized full body fronts add $3 per piece under 25 pieces and $2 at 25 or more, and sizes 2XL and up add $6 each under 25 pieces or $4 each at 25 or more. Heavier garments follow the same pack structure at their own price points, all shown live in the Design Lab.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Every order ships tracked to Des Plaines addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
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.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
Five to seven business days, all in, from approval to arrival. Rush exists for real deadlines and gets an honest yes or no up front.
Design help is included free. Whatever you have, a napkin sketch, a faded shirt photo, a sentence, becomes a print-ready proof from a real designer 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.
