Rush Order Printing Improvements – Custom Tees in as Fast as 24 Hours

Need shirts tomorrow? We just rolled out major rush order printing improvements that cut turnaround down to a single day—without cutting corners on quality. If you’ve ever worried that last-minute merch means sloppy prints or missed deadlines, keep reading. Our new time-based pricing and streamlined workflow deliver faster rush printing you can trust.

Why We Offer Faster Rush Printing

Since opening 24 Hour Tees® in 2013, we’ve promised speed and quality. Customers loved our original rush option, yet many still needed even tighter deadlines. After reviewing thousands of jobs—and plenty of late-night presses—we refined every step: art approval, screen setup, ink prep, and shipping logistics. The result? Orders can now leave our shop in 24 hours (or less!) when you choose the top rush tier.

Pro tip: Tight on design time, too? Use our Online Designer to upload art and approve proofs in minutes.

How Time-Based Pricing Works

  1. Pick Your Due Date. Any turnaround under 14 business days is considered a rush.

  2. See the Up-Charge Up Front. The sooner you need it, the higher the rush fee—because our crew works overtime just for you.

  3. Approve and Relax. Once you sign off on the proof, we print, inspect, and ship—often the same day.

For example, a 3-day rush costs less than a 24-hour rush, yet both beat the clock comfortably.

When to Choose Faster Rush Printing

  • Event planner surprise: The client adds a VIP tee one day before showtime.

  • Supplier fail: Another printer cancels, and you still need staff polos.

  • Missed reorder window: You waited a bit too long, but the festival won’t wait.

Built-In Quality Checks

Speed means nothing if prints crack or colors drift. Every rush job still passes our normal six-point inspection: mesh tension, ink viscosity, registration, flash temp, final cure, and post-production review.

Group Orders

If you’ve got time to spare, our standard production is the best value. You’ll have access to a much wider variety of garment types, colors, and printing options—all at a more affordable price. While production and delivery take longer, this option is ideal for planning ahead and getting exactly what you want without paying the premium that comes with rush production. Patience pays off with more choices and lower costs.

Rush Production

Our rush production option is designed for speed—perfect for last-minute events or tight deadlines. While it's our fastest service, please note that it comes with limitations: you'll have fewer choices in garment styles, colors, and print colors. Due to the quick turnaround, rush production is significantly more expensive than our standard option, but it's the right choice when time is critical and you need your order delivered fast.
