DTG and DTF Printing for Albion: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Full color starting at just 10 pieces. Photographs, gradients, and detailed art on ten shirts or one hundred, on cotton, blends, and polyester. For Albion, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
With a community of 441 spread over 0.6 square miles, Albion gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Liscomb, IA (6 mi), Marshalltown, IA (7 mi), Green Mountain, IA (9 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Camp Dodge sits about 48 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Albion.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Iowa mixes Albion crews with neighbors like Liscomb, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
A 10 piece run prints at published pack pricing, in full color, with zero setup. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Albion customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Albion customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
The gap between what you have and what a press needs is our designers job to close, free with any order. Whatever the starting point, the output is the same: clean vectors, correct insignia, a proof within 24 hours, and unlimited revisions until you approve it in writing. Only then does anything print.
The Design Lab offers the self-serve path, with your art positioned on real product photos and the total priced as you go.
Budget planning for Albion customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 20 pieces | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pieces | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pieces | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pieces | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
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.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Every order ships tracked to Albion 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.
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.
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.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
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.
