DTG and DTF Printing for Drakes Branch: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Drakes Branch 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 Drakes Branch address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Drakes Branch at a community of 518 on 4.1 square miles of Virginia, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Charlotte Court House, VA (5 mi), Keysville, VA (7 mi), Phenix, VA (10 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. The closest major installation is Fort Gregg-Adams, roughly 68 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
No storefront visit required. Send a rough idea or finished art, a real designer builds the proof at no charge, and the finished gear ships straight to Drakes Branch.
Because Charlotte Court House sits only 5 miles from Drakes Branch, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Drakes Branch 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.
The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Drakes Branch customers, these three earn their keep.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Start from a napkin sketch if that is what you have. Turning rough into print ready is the job.
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 Drakes Branch customers see.
| Quantity | Pack price | Per shirt | Shipping | Add back print |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 |

| 100 pack | $1200 | $12 ea | FREE | $2 ea |
Add-on pricing is deliberately boring: back print per the table (later $3, then $2), oversize front $3 or $2 by volume, extended sizes $6 or $4 by volume. That is the complete list, and the Design Lab computes it live before any quote is written.
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.
Within 24 hours you have a proof in your inbox, drawn to size, on the garment and color you picked. Revisions are unlimited and free.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
From approval, count 5 to 7 business days to your door. If the event is sooner, ask about rush and get a straight yes or no.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
The timeline to Drakes Branch addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
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.
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.
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.
Due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. Double check sizing and artwork before submitting your order. Every order gets a free proof first, and nothing prints until you approve it in writing.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Drakes Branch 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.
Yes, and without giving up your email: the Design Lab keeps the complete total, packs to shipping, on screen while you design.
