DTG and DTF Printing for Meckling: 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 Meckling, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
From one end of Meckling to the other, 0.2 square miles, the shipping promise does not change: 5 to 7 business days, tracked. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Gayville, SD (6 mi), Vermillion, SD (8 mi), Wynot, NE (9 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. For the military community, Offutt Air Force Base sits about 130 miles away, well inside our normal unit-order routes.
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 Meckling.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of South Dakota mixes Meckling crews with neighbors like Gayville, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.
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.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Complex art prints as designed: no color counting, no separations, no upcharge. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Meckling customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
It also means we say no when we should. If a design will not print well at the size you want, or a date cannot be hit, you hear it before you spend money, not 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.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Meckling customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. A real designer, not an upload widget, checks every file before it goes near production.
The premium pairing: washed heavyweight cotton plus full-color DTG equals shelf-ready product. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
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 Meckling customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| 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 |

Options price per piece: back prints at the listed rate (falling to $3 at 25 and $2 at 50), oversized full-body fronts at $3 under 25 pieces or $2 above, and 2XL-plus sizes at $6 under 25 pieces or $4 above. Every heavier garment keeps this same pack shape at its own numbers, and the Design Lab totals it live while you build.
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.
Nothing goes to press until you approve the proof in writing. What you sign off on is exactly what prints, that is the whole point of the proof.
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.
We archive your art and garment specs, which makes the second order a two minute conversation.
Count 5 to 7 business days, production included, for tracked delivery to Meckling addresses. At 100 pieces shipping costs nothing; under that, the flat rates in the table are the whole story.
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.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
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.
The extended-size rule fits in one line: add $6 per piece below 25 total, $4 per piece at 25 or more. The Design Lab applies it automatically.
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.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Meckling crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
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.
