Screen Printing for Ralston: free 24-hour proofs, published pack pricing, and tracked delivery in 5 to 7 business days.
Ralston 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 Ralston address in 5 to 7 business days.
Census numbers put Ralston at a community of 77 on 2.0 square miles of Iowa, all of it covered by the same tracked shipping. If your people are spread out, that is fine: Scranton, IA (4 mi), Glidden, IA (5 mi), Lidderdale, IA (10 mi) sit close enough that one order can outfit all of them. The closest major installation is Camp Dodge, roughly 52 miles out, and unit orders from there run through this same process daily.
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 Ralston.
Screen Printing demand around Ralston does not stop at the town line. Crews from Scranton (4 miles out) order through the same process, which is why coverage is priced by pack, never by zip code.
Era-correct designs drawn by our in-house team and printed for every generation of the crew. Rush timelines get quoted honestly. If we cannot hit the date, we say so before you pay a cent.
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.
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.
Uniform shirts that still look issued after a season of job-site laundry cycles. The second order takes two minutes because the first one is archived down to the thread color.
Fundraiser tees where the committee knows its margin up front, because every pack price is public. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.
One run covers the team and the bleachers: kid sizes and adult sizes priced together. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
This shop exists for the military community, and it shows in how orders run. Deadlines are treated like formation times, proofs are honest instead of optimistic, and when Ralston customers call, a person who owns the order answers.
Part of the job is refusing bad orders. When the art, the garment, or the date is wrong, saying so before you pay is the service.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Ralston customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
An 8.0oz fleece crew with a clean uninterrupted front, the best canvas we stock for big crests and old school block lettering. Mixed sizes and colors in one run are standard here, not a special request.
When the count is high, this 4.5oz ringspun blank keeps the math friendly: $12 a shirt at volume, front print included. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. Ask for the honest option and you get it, even when it is the cheaper one.
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.

The first step is just getting the idea out of your head: type it into the quote form or mock it up in the Design Lab, rough edges and all.
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.
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.
Everything about the run gets archived, which turns every future reorder into a one-line email.

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.
