Screen Printing for Atherton: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Atherton crews order screen printed 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 Atherton address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Atherton at about 6,800 people on 5.0 square miles of California, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: North Fair Oaks, CA (1 mi), West Menlo Park, CA (2 mi), Stanford, CA (3 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Coast Guard Base Alameda, around 20 miles from Atherton, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Atherton.
Screen Printing demand around Atherton does not stop at the town line. Crews from North Fair Oaks (1 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Uniform shirts that still look issued after a season of job-site laundry cycles. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
Event shirts priced before the first form is printed, so selling at a profit is arithmetic, not hope. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Youth smalls through adult 5XL in a single pack at a single rate. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
Era-correct designs drawn by our in-house team and printed for every generation of the crew. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Giveaway runs engineered to a number: budget blank, single color, maximum count. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
One design across the whole formation, printed at pack pricing that drops as the count climbs. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
We print for units, veterans, and military families every day, and the discipline transfers. Atherton customers get straight answers on dates, a named person on their order, and work we would put our own name on.
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 Atherton customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Eighty-plus colors of 5.3oz heavy cotton, from military green to every heather, that keeps its shape through the laundry years. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
For big front art, nothing beats this 8.0oz crew with its uninterrupted printing field. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
When the count is high, this 4.5oz ringspun blank keeps the math friendly: $12 a shirt at volume, front print included. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
Design help is not an upsell here, it is how orders start. Describe the concept in a sentence, attach whatever reference you have, and within 24 hours a real designer returns a proof drawn as clean vectors, era-correct where it matters. Revisions cost nothing and continue until the proof is right, and your written approval is the only thing that sends it to production.
The Design Lab is there when you want to drive: upload, place, and price the design yourself on the exact garment we print.
The table below is the actual price list Atherton customers order from, light cotton tee, front print included, no asterisks.
| 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 |
| 20 pieces | $320 | $16 ea | $20.99 | $4 ea |
| 25 pieces | $375 | $15 ea | $20.99 | $3 ea |
| 50 pieces | $700 | $14 ea | $22.99 | $2 ea |
| 100 pieces | $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.
Send the idea through the quote form or build it yourself in the Design Lab. A napkin sketch photographed on a phone counts, our designers have built full unit runs from less.
The proof arrives inside a day, drawn at print size on your chosen garment and color. Change anything, as often as needed, at no cost.
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.
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.
Every order ships tracked to Atherton addresses with standard production plus shipping at 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping kicks in at 100 pieces, and pack shipping rates below that are published, not surprises at checkout.
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.
Five to seven business days, all in, from approval to arrival. Rush exists for real deadlines and gets an honest yes or no up front.
Design help is included free. Whatever you have, a napkin sketch, a faded shirt photo, a sentence, becomes a print-ready proof from a real designer within 24 hours.
Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
Extended sizes carry a flat per-piece add: $6 when the order is under 25 pieces, $4 once it reaches 25. The estimate in the Design Lab applies it for you.
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.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your atherton crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
