From single pieces to full crew runs, Melbourne gets printed large format gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Melbourne 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 Melbourne address in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 768 spread over 0.5 square miles, Melbourne 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 Rhodes, IA (4 mi), State Center, IA (6 mi), Haverhill, IA (7 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Camp Dodge, roughly 36 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Melbourne counted against your roster.
Banners and Signs demand around Melbourne does not stop at the town line. Crews from Rhodes (4 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Pull-up stands that turn a folding table into a professional booth. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Stacks of corrugated yard signs for fundraising drives and campaigns. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Fence-line vinyl with proper hems and grommets, sized to spec. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Dedication displays produced with the seriousness the ceremony deserves. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Pier-side photo banners sized four by eight, produced on timelines that respect shifting return dates. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Registration, sponsor, and directional signs for runs, fairs, and ceremonies. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Melbourne customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
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.
The Design Lab puts your art on the real garment, takes your size counts, and totals the whole order, shipping included, without asking who you are.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Melbourne customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Volunteer and staff tees to match the signage, priced for handing out by the box. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Cold-month events call for fleece on the crew, not just cotton. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Most banner orders add matching event shirts. Doing both in one order means one proof, one deadline, one delivery. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
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.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Melbourne customers see.
| 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 |
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.
A real designer, not an algorithm, sends your proof within 24 hours. You change it as many times as it takes to be right.
Nothing goes to press until you approve the proof in writing. What you sign off on is exactly what prints, that is the whole point of the proof.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Delivery to Melbourne 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.
Every box leaves counted, tracked, and matched to your roster. Shortages and shipping damage are on us to fix, fast, because delivery day is the only day the customer remembers.
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.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Melbourne crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
Best case: vector art (AI, SVG, EPS, PDF). Very good case: a 300 DPI transparent PNG. Worst case: a screenshot, which our designers redraw at no charge anyway.
We do, at the same pace as domestic orders. Deployed and overseas service members at APO and FPO addresses are covered alongside all 50 states.
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.
Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
