DTG and DTF Printing for Grinnell: 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 Grinnell, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Grinnell is home to about 9,500 people across 5.7 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Oakland Acres, IA (5 mi), Malcom, IA (9 mi), Kellogg, IA (9 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Camp Dodge sits about 52 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 Grinnell.
Because Oakland Acres sits only 5 miles from Grinnell, joint orders across town lines are common here: one proof, one pack price, two delivery stops if needed.
Gift and ceremony runs on compressed timelines, quoted honestly. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Photographs print exactly as shot, handled with the care these orders deserve. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Unlimited colors at one price, so gradients and photo art cost nothing extra. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Test a design with 10 pieces before committing to a 100-piece screen print run. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. 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. Grinnell customers feel the difference on the first order.
The same discipline applies inward: an unrealistic date or a design that will not print well gets flagged before you commit, not explained after.
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.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Grinnell customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
Half the orders we take begin as a phone photo of a sketch, an old shirt, or a sentence describing the idea. A designer turns that into print-ready vector art at no charge, sends the proof inside 24 hours, and revises it until you sign off in writing. Nothing is produced before that signature, which is why what shows up matches what you expected.
Prefer hands-on? Build the design yourself in the Design Lab on real product photos, with the running price on screen while you work.
Budget planning for Grinnell customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Quantity | Pack price | Per shirt | Shipping | Add back print |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 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.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
You approve in writing before production starts. No surprises at the box opening, because you already saw the shirt.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, with rush available when the calendar demands it.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Grinnell 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.
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.
Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Grinnell crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.
Vector files such as AI, SVG, EPS, and PDF are ideal. A 300 DPI PNG with a transparent background also prints clean. If all you have is a screenshot, we redraw it free.
Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.
Completely. Build the design in the Design Lab and the full order total sits on screen the whole time; no email, no call, no waiting.
