From single pieces to full crew runs, Carlton gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Carlton crews order printed in full color 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 Carlton address in 5 to 7 business days.
With about 2,200 people spread over 0.9 square miles, Carlton gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Yamhill, OR (3 mi), Lafayette, OR (5 mi), McMinnville, OR (6 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Coast Guard Air Station Astoria, roughly 69 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 Carlton.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Carlton does not stop at the town line. Crews from Yamhill (3 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Carlton 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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Carlton customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
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.
Here is what Carlton customers actually pay, starting from our light cotton tee. Every price includes a standard front print, and the number only moves down as the pack gets bigger.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |
Back prints add per piece at the rate shown, dropping to $3 at 25 pieces and $2 at 50. Oversized full body fronts add $3 per piece under 25 pieces and $2 at 25 or more, and sizes 2XL and up add $6 each under 25 pieces or $4 each at 25 or more. Heavier garments follow the same pack structure at their own price points, all shown live in the Design Lab.
Kick it off however suits you: describe the concept in the quote form or drop your art straight into the Design Lab. Polish is not required at this stage.
Twenty-four hours gets you a designer-built proof on the exact blank you chose. Iterate freely until it is right.
Your written approval is the gate. Until it exists, nothing prints; once it exists, exactly that design prints.
Approval to doorstep runs 5 to 7 business days as the default, faster when rush is booked and honestly refused when it cannot be.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Delivery to Carlton 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.
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.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Carlton crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
Yes. We ship to all 50 states and to APO and FPO addresses for deployed and overseas service members.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
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.
