From single pieces to full crew runs, Rock City gets printed large format gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Weatherproof 13oz vinyl banners, retractable stands, and yard signs. Hemmed, grommeted, and printed fast. For Rock City, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Rock City at a community of 284 on 0.1 square miles of Illinois, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Davis, IL (3 mi), Dakota, IL (3 mi), Lake Summerset, IL (5 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. The closest major installation is Naval Station Great Lakes, roughly 83 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Rock City.
Banners and Signs demand around Rock City does not stop at the town line. Crews from Davis (3 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Pier-side photo banners sized four by eight, produced on timelines that respect shifting return dates. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
The full event kit: sponsor boards, registration signs, and arrows that get people where they belong. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
The thirty-second booth: retractable stands for recruiters and expos. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Corrugated signs by the stack for fundraisers and campaigns. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Outdoor vinyl hemmed, grommeted, and cut to the fence you plan to hang it on. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Ceremony pieces handled with the gravity the event carries. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Rock city customers feel the difference on the first order.
It also means we say no when we should. If a design will not print well at the size you want, or a date cannot be hit, you hear it before you spend money, not after.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Rock City customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Pair the banner with matching tees in the same order: one approval covers everything. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Staff tees matched to the signage, cheap enough to hand out by the case. 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. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
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 Rock City 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 |
Beyond the table, the only extras are per-piece and public: back prints at the listed rate stepping down to $3 then $2, oversized fronts at $3 dropping to $2, and 2XL-plus at $6 dropping to $4. The Design Lab does this arithmetic for you in real time.
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.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Rock City addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
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.
That is the point of the Design Lab: the complete number, packs, back prints, size upcharges, shipping, updates live while you design, before any contact form.
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.
Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
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.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your rock city crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
