How much does custom screen printing cost?


Your best bet is to visit our Get A QUOTE page on our website and punch in all of your specifications and even upload some artwork. This is the fastest way to get the most accurate estimate. We work off of the quick quote's pricing matrix for all of our bidding. Pricing varies based on:
-Number of print colors on the front of the garment (more colors = more cost)
-Number of print colors on the back of the garment (more colors = more cost)
-Size of the print on the front of the garment (larger = more cost)
-Size of the print on the back of the garment (larger = more cost)
-Quantity of items ordered (the more you order, the less the price is per piece)
-What brand of blank garment you want us to use (hanes, gildan, etc.)
-What color the blank garment is (darker colors are more)
-Any other misc. specialty positioning and modifications to the shirt (these can be a bit more cost but add a lot of "kick" to the design!)

How much is custom design?
We charge $65 per hour for custom graphic design. We make sure that our prices are fair for our clients. We work efficiently and keep strict time recording guidelines for all of our designers.

How much is shipping?
Shipping is Free to any of the continental United States. Addtl Fees apply to orders sent to Canada, Hawaii, and Alaska

What is the setup cost?
That's one of the best parts about our prices...the setup cost is included! This way you can see exactly what you will be paying when you order your items.

Where are you located?
We have always avoided investing in a physical brick and mortar showroom/store due to high costs that are ultimately passed on to the customer. We find it much more efficient to operate online and offer unbridled customer service via e-mail, and telephone. The address of our manufacturing facility is:

United Graphic Design
3211 27th Court SE,
Albany, Oregon 97322

What file formats should I use?

It is best for us to receive files in photoshop (.psd), illustrator (.eps or .ai), or PDF format. We also have expert designers that can retouch designs and turn them into useable files. Many clients take advantage of this service if they only have access to .jpgs and .gif files. The standard fee for this is $45 per hour. This rate also applies for custom artwork design. If you have a .jpg or .gif with a resolution greater than 300dpi...we are often able to convert the artwork for free.

What is the turn around time?
We guarantee all orders within 14 days of recieving final payment. :) We have very reasonable rush order fees if the order is needed within the week. ie: On an order of 50 shirts there is a $50 rush fee only increasing the cost per shirt by $1.00. We’d like to think it’s very reasonable.
