DTG and DTF Printing for Traer: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Traer 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 Traer address in 5 to 7 business days.
Traer is home to about 1,500 people across 1.3 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: Dysart, IA (8 mi), Clutier, IA (8 mi), Reinbeck, IA (11 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. Camp Dodge, around 73 miles from Traer, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
Nothing here needs a storefront. Art goes in by phone or upload, a designer proofs it free, and the shipment lands in Traer counted against your roster.
DTG and DTF Printing demand around Traer does not stop at the town line. Crews from Dysart (8 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Memorial pieces print photo-true and move to the front of the schedule. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. 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. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Every shirt in the box can carry different art at the same per-piece rate. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Traer customers feel the difference on the first order.
Honesty runs in both directions here. A doomed timeline or a design that will disappoint gets called out early, with an alternative attached.
Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.
Garment choice makes or breaks the order. These are the blanks Traer customers pick most, all designable online on real product photos.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Eighty colors deep, this is the dependable canvas for photographic and memorial work. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The boxy 7.5oz cut made for oversized color, front and back. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.
Budget planning for Traer customers starts with real numbers. This is our light cotton tee pack pricing with the front print already included.
| Order size | Pack total | Cost per piece | Freight | Back side |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 pieces | $180 | $18 ea | $18 | $4 ea |
| 15 pieces | $250 | $16.67 ea | $18 | $4 ea |

| 50 pieces | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |

Beyond the table, the only extras are per-piece and public: back prints at the listed rate stepping down to $3 then $2, oversized fronts at $3 dropping to $2, and 2XL-plus at $6 dropping to $4. The Design Lab does this arithmetic for you in real time.
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.
One day later the proof is in your inbox: your art, your garment, your colors, at true print scale. Revisions never cost a cent.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what prints.
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.
The specs live in our archive permanently: same art, same colors, same result, on demand.
Production plus shipping to Traer addresses runs 5 to 7 business days standard, tracked the whole way. Shipping is free at 100 pieces and flat rated below that, exactly as shown in the pricing table above.
The roster is the packing list: every size counted into the box, tracking issued at pickup, and any shortage or transit damage made right at our cost without argument.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Traer crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
