DTF Transfer Shipping & Turnaround

When your transfers ship, how long they take to arrive, and how to plan around a deadline.

Same-day shipping

Orders placed before 1 PM Pacific ship the same business day. Orders after the cutoff ship the next business day. Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

Production time vs. transit time

These are two separate clocks. Production is the time it takes us to print and pack your order. Transit is the time the carrier takes to deliver it. You choose the carrier service at checkout, and the delivery estimate is shown there.

Planning around an event or launch

  • Work backward from the date you need to press, not the event date. Leave time to press, fold and pack the finished garments.
  • Order before the 1 PM PT cutoff so the order leaves the same day.
  • Pick a faster shipping service at checkout if the timeline is tight.
  • Check your files before you order. A file problem is the most common reason a rushed order slips. The artwork requirements covers what to check.

Storing transfers until you press

You don't have to press everything the day it arrives. Unpressed DTF transfers keep 6 to 12 months stored flat in a sealed bag, somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight. That makes it easy to order a full run at once and press as you go.
