Why we publish the real numbers
Most event vendors make you book a discovery call to learn what things cost or how fast a press runs. We'd rather you walk in knowing the math: up to 60 shirts per hour per press, about two minutes per shirt, two 120V circuits and a 10×10 ft footprint, and a typical all-in budget between $5K and $15K. If those numbers work for your event, the quote form takes two minutes — and a real person replies within 24 hours.
