From single pieces to full crew runs, Stratford 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 Stratford, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Stratford is home to a community of 682 across 1.8 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Stanhope, IA (7 mi), Dayton, IA (7 mi), Lehigh, IA (9 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Camp Dodge, roughly 41 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 Stratford counted against your roster.
A typical week of banners and signs orders from this corner of Iowa mixes Stratford crews with neighbors like Stanhope, 7 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
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.
Pier-side photo banners sized four by eight, produced on timelines that respect shifting return dates. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Registration, sponsor, and directional signs for runs, fairs, and ceremonies. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Pull-up stands that turn a folding table into a professional booth. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Stacks of corrugated yard signs for fundraising drives and campaigns. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Fence-line vinyl with proper hems and grommets, sized to spec. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Stratford customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
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 Stratford customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Pair the banner with matching tees in the same order: one approval covers everything. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
The volunteer-shirt companion: light, matched to the signs, priced for volume. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
For outdoor events in cold months, the crew needs more than a tee. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
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.
No mystery pricing. These are the published packs on our light cotton tee, front print included, and Stratford customers watch the per piece cost fall as quantity climbs.

Heavier garments follow the same pack structure at their own price points, all shown live in the Design Lab.
Start in the Design Lab on the exact garment we print, or send whatever you have through the quote form. Rough ideas are welcome, that is what the free design service is for.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
Your written approval is the gate. Until it exists, nothing prints; once it exists, exactly that design prints.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Stratford addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
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.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
Large orders are the specialty, not the exception: hundreds of mixed-size pieces, roster-counted boxes, one accountable contact.
The extended-size rule fits in one line: add $6 per piece below 25 total, $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab applies it 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 stratford crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
