On-site printing is same-day by definition. The station prints during your Detroit event, so guests walk out wearing custom merch that day, not weeks later. What still takes planning is getting the station there.
Same-day for your guests
Once the press is running at your venue, there's no wait between the order and the finished piece. A guest picks, we print, and they wear it out. Each guest's wait is about two minutes.
What we turn around on the spot
- Tees and hoodies, on screen printing or DTF.
- Caps and patches at the hat bar.
- Totes and promo goods for a gifting table.
The part that takes planning
The gear ships freight from Fullerton, 1,969 miles away, and the crew flies in a day early, so the booking needs lead time even though the merch doesn't. Six to ten weeks is comfortable. Auto-industry launches and Detroit Auto Show activations are where on-site printing shines, because nothing has to arrive in boxes before doors.
Tight timeline? Send the date and the headcount anyway and we'll tell you quickly whether the freight can make it.

Detroit planning notes
What same-day takes in Detroit
The shirts get made on the day, but the blanks, presses and crew have to be in the room first. We ship to the venue's receiving schedule and build before doors, so the first guest in line gets a shirt in about two minutes.
