Screen Printing for Franklin: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
The workhorse method: vibrant plastisol or water-based ink pressed through mesh, one color at a time. Best price per shirt at volume and prints that survive hundreds of washes. For Franklin, that comes with published pack pricing and door delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Franklin covers 0.3 square miles of Maryland, and delivery reaches every address in it on the standard 5 to 7 day window. Nearby crews are already in the coverage circle, with Westernport, MD (1 mi), Luke, MD (1 mi), Piedmont, WV (1 mi) sharing the identical pack rates and timelines. For the military community, Camp Dawson sits about 34 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 Franklin.
A typical week of screen printing orders from this corner of Maryland mixes Franklin crews with neighbors like Westernport, 1 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
Reunion gear that gets the year right, drawn in-house and printed for every generation at once. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
High-count, budget-tier blanks with a clean one-color print that keeps cost per piece low. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
Formation-wide runs are the bread and butter: single design, mixed sizes, pack rates that reward volume. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
Crew tees built for daily abuse: heavy blanks, cured ink, and reorders that match exactly. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Runs, festivals, and booster fundraisers with published pricing so the margin math is done before the order form goes out. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.
Mixed youth and adult sizes in one run at one pack price. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
The shop runs on habits borrowed from the people we serve: accountability by name, honest reporting, and deadlines that do not slide. Franklin customers feel the difference on the first order.
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 Franklin customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Big-run economics start here: light ringspun cotton from $12 at volume, with the front print already in the price. Bring a rough idea, even a phone photo of a whiteboard, and our designers make it print ready at no charge.
The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. 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. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
Finished files are welcome but never required. A faded photo, a hand sketch, or three sentences of description all become professional vector art at no charge, proofed back to you within a day. The revision count is unlimited, the approval is in writing, and production does not move an inch until that approval exists.
Hands-on types can skip the wait entirely: the Design Lab puts your art on the actual garment with the price updating live.
Start the budget from the real numbers: published light cotton tee packs, front print built into every figure Franklin customers see.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Start in the Design Lab on the exact garment we print, or send whatever you have through the quote form. Rough ideas are welcome, that is what the free design service is for.
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.
Production waits for one thing only: your written sign-off on the proof. That signature is the contract for exactly what 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.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
Delivery to Franklin addresses follows one simple clock: 5 to 7 business days including production, with tracking from the moment it leaves. Hit 100 pieces and the shipping line drops to zero.
Before sealing, every carton is counted against the size roster, and tracking goes out the same day. Anything short or damaged gets replaced at our cost on an expedited timeline.
Standard production plus shipping takes 5 to 7 business days. Rush options are available on many orders, tell us your date and we answer honestly.
Always, at no charge. A designer takes your rough input, redraws it print ready, and has a proof in your inbox inside a day, with unlimited revisions after.
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.
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.
Finality is the nature of custom work: no returns once it prints. Your protections live earlier in the process, in the free proof and the written approval that nothing skips.
The minimum order is 10 pieces. Your franklin crew can order ten today and a hundred next month; the packs just make each piece cheaper as the count grows.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
