Banners and Signs for Dowling: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Weatherproof 13oz vinyl banners, retractable stands, and yard signs. Hemmed, grommeted, and printed fast. For Dowling, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
All 6.1 square miles of Dowling sit inside our normal delivery map, tracked door to door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Nashville, MI (9 mi), Hastings, MI (9 mi), Delton, MI (9 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Selfridge Air National Guard Base, around 120 miles from Dowling, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
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 Dowling.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of Michigan mixes Dowling crews with neighbors like Nashville, 9 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Pier-side photo banners sized four by eight, produced on timelines that respect shifting return dates. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Registration, sponsor, and directional signs for runs, fairs, and ceremonies. 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. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Corrugated signs by the stack for fundraisers and campaigns. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Outdoor vinyl hemmed, grommeted, and cut to the fence you plan to hang it on. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Dedication displays produced with the seriousness the ceremony deserves. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Dowling customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
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 Dowling customers, these three earn their keep.
Most banner orders add matching event shirts. Doing both in one order means one proof, one deadline, one delivery. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Staff tees matched to the signage, cheap enough to hand out by the case. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
When the event is outdoors in November, the staff gear is a hoodie. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
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.

Boxes get counted twice against the roster before they seal, and the tracking number reaches you the day of pickup. Damage or shortage claims are our expense and our rush.
Yes. Runs in the hundreds of pieces with mixed sizes and colors are our normal work, managed by one point of contact from proof to delivery.
Sizes 2XL and up add $6 per piece under 25 total pieces, or $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab includes it in your estimate automatically.
There are no returns on custom orders; once printed, the work is final. That is exactly why production never starts without your written approval of a free proof, and why the size roster deserves a second look before you submit.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your dowling crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
