DTG and DTF Printing for Wellman: 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 Wellman, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Wellman is home to about 1,500 people across 1.1 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Kalona, IA (7 mi), Kinross, IA (8 mi), Frytown, IA (9 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. Rock Island Arsenal, around 65 miles from Wellman, 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 Wellman counted against your roster.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of Iowa mixes Wellman crews with neighbors like Kalona, 7 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Different art per shirt in the same order, priced per piece. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Retirement, promotion, and gift runs turned around fast. Deadlines get treated like formation times, not suggestions.
Ten shirts print at a fair small-run price: full color, no screens, no setup fee. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.
Small batches derisk merch: print ten, sell ten, then commit big. 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. Wellman 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 Wellman customers pick most, all designable online on real product 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.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Full-color DTG on this garment-dyed 6.1oz blank passes for retail merchandise. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
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.
