DTG and DTF Printing for Helena: 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 Helena, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Helena at about 34,000 people on 16.9 square miles of Montana, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with South Hills, MT (3 mi), Unionville, MT (5 mi), East Helena, MT (5 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. Malmstrom Air Force Base, around 71 miles from Helena, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
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 Helena.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Montana mixes Helena crews with neighbors like South Hills, 3 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
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.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Serving the military community is not a marketing line here, it is the operating system. Helena customers deal with one accountable person, get dates that mean something, and receive work held to a uniform standard.
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 Helena customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Photo and memorial prints land on this blank most often, matched from its 80-color range. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
A 7.5oz boxy streetwear blank built for oversized full color hits front and back. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
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.
The table below is the actual price list Helena customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| 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 |
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.
Two doors in: the quote form if you want a person on it immediately, or the Design Lab if you want to see it on the garment first. Either way, unfinished ideas are the expected input.
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.
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.
Your art and specs stay on file, so reorders match the first run exactly, down to the ink.
The timeline to Helena 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.
Orders ship boxed and counted against your size roster, with tracking sent the day they leave. If anything arrives short or damaged, photograph it and send it over, and we correct it at our cost.
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.
Our minimum is 10 pieces. Packs for your Helena crew begin at 10, the per piece price falls as the count climbs, and shipping goes free at 100.
File quality is our problem, not yours: vectors are ideal, 300 DPI PNGs work, and weak files get redrawn at no charge.
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.
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.
Yes, and it costs nothing with your order. Send a sketch, an old logo, or just the idea, and a designer sends a print ready proof within 24 hours.
