1. Order received
Your order enters production planning. If artwork or order details need attention, that can affect how quickly production starts.
Production time vs shipping time
Your order moves through two stages: shop production first, then carrier transit after the package is handed off.
2. Printed and checked
Gang sheet orders placed before 2 PM EST Monday through Friday qualify for same-day shipping when the order is print-ready and does not require artwork follow-up.
3. Shipped by the carrier
Transit begins after the carrier receives the package. Delivery speed then depends on the carrier network and service level selected.
What can affect timing
- ✔ Time of day the order is placed
- ✔ Whether the artwork is truly print-ready
- ✔ Order size and overall job complexity
- ✔ Weekends, holidays, and peak production periods
- ✔ Carrier delays after the shipment leaves our shop
Helpful planning tips
Working around a deadline?
If you need an order by a specific date, contact us before ordering so we can help you judge what looks realistic.
Carrier time starts after shipment
Shipping speed and delivery dates depend on the carrier once the package has been accepted into their network.
Order earlier when timing matters
Extra lead time is the safest move for events, launches, and large orders that have to land by a firm date.
