Screen Printing delivered to Scales Mound

Scales Mound 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 Scales Mound address in 5 to 7 business days.

With a community of 426 spread over 0.6 square miles, Scales Mound gets the same flat delivery promise as everywhere else we serve: 5 to 7 business days to any door. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Apple Canyon Lake, IL (6 mi), The Galena Territory, IL (7 mi), Shullsburg, WI (7 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Rock Island Arsenal, around 71 miles from Scales Mound, 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 Scales Mound.

A typical week of screen printing orders from this corner of Illinois mixes Scales Mound crews with neighbors like Apple Canyon Lake, 6 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.

What Scales Mound gets screen printed

Business and crew uniform tees

Everyday workwear printed to survive the job site, the shop floor, and the industrial washer. Nobody chases an order here. Your contact tells you where it stands before you have to ask.

Event and fundraiser shirts

Runs, festivals, and booster fundraisers with published pricing so the margin math is done before the order form goes out. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.

School and team spirit wear

One run covers the team and the bleachers: kid sizes and adult sizes priced together. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.

Reunion and anniversary runs

Era-correct designs drawn by our in-house team and printed for every generation of the crew. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.

Bulk giveaway tees

When the count is high and the budget is fixed, light blanks and one-color prints deliver. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.

Unit and company shirt runs

The whole roster in one run, one design, with the per-piece price falling at every pack break. We handle the art, the sizing spread, and the deadline. You handle handing them out.

Why order from a shop built for the military community

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 Scales Mound 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.

No sales call needed to get a number.

Ninety seconds in the Design Lab gets you a complete number: garment, print, sizes, upcharges, and shipping, all before any contact form.

What to print it on

The right blank depends on budget, season, and how hard the gear will be worn. For Scales Mound customers, these three earn their keep.

Essential Light Tee

When the count is high, this 4.5oz ringspun blank keeps the math friendly: $12 a shirt at volume, front print included. Every price is published before you talk to a person, so the budget math happens on your terms.

Classic Cotton Tee

The default unit shirt: heavy cotton, an 80-color palette, and a fit that survives the wash cycle. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.

Crewneck Sweatshirt

An 8.0oz fleece crew with a clean uninterrupted front, the best canvas we stock for big crests and old school block lettering. Packs mix garment colors freely, so squads, shifts, or grade levels can each get their own.

Design help that costs nothing

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.

Every order ships tracked to Scales Mound 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.

Common questions

Is there a minimum order?

Yes, 10 pieces. That is the smallest run we print, packs for your Scales Mound crew keep dropping the per piece price from there, and free shipping starts at 100.

What file types work best?

Vector files such as AI, SVG, EPS, and PDF are ideal. A 300 DPI PNG with a transparent background also prints clean. If all you have is a screenshot, we redraw it free.

Do you ship to APO and FPO addresses?

Deployed addresses are first-class here: APO and FPO ship on the standard timeline, right alongside all 50 states.

Can I see the price before I talk to anyone?

Completely. Build the design in the Design Lab and the full order total sits on screen the whole time; no email, no call, no waiting.

How long does shipping take?

Count 5 to 7 business days from approval to doorstep, production included. Tighter date? Ask about rush and you get a straight answer before paying.

Do you help with the design?

Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
