Two Different Things, Often Confused
"Same-day" and "overnight" get used interchangeably in banner printing marketing, but they describe two separate steps in the process — production and shipping — and understanding both is the only way to actually know when your order will show up.
Same-Day Production
This is about when your order goes to print, not when it arrives. Order before our daily cutoff time and your banner, sign, or stand is printed and packaged that same business day — it doesn't sit in a queue for tomorrow or the next day. Order after the cutoff and production simply starts the next business day instead.
Overnight Shipping
This is about transit time once your order leaves our facility. Free FedEx Priority Overnight is included on every eligible order — no separate shipping charge, no minimum order size — and it typically delivers the next business day after it ships.
Put Together, Here's What It Means
Order before the daily cutoff on a Tuesday: printed and shipped Tuesday, arrives Wednesday. Order after the cutoff on a Tuesday: printed and shipped Wednesday, arrives Thursday. Same-day production is what makes overnight shipping actually useful — without it, "overnight shipping" on an order that doesn't print for three days doesn't save you any real time.
The One Exception: Custom T-Shirts
Every product on the site follows the same-day-production-plus-overnight-shipping model except custom t-shirts, which take 3–5 business days to produce before they ship — screen printing and garment handling simply takes longer than digital banner printing. If you're ordering shirts on a deadline, build in that extra time.
Why This Matters When You're Ordering
If you have a hard deadline — a trade show, an event, an open house this weekend — the cutoff time is the number that actually matters, not the shipping speed. Miss the cutoff by an hour and your delivery date moves a full day, regardless of how fast the shipping method is.

Frequently Asked Questions
What time is the daily cutoff?
Order by 1PM EST and your order is printed and shipped that same business day via free FedEx overnight.
Does overnight shipping cost extra?
No — free FedEx Priority Overnight is included on every eligible order (all products except custom t-shirts), with no minimum order size.
What happens if I order on a Friday?
Orders placed before the Friday cutoff ship that day and typically arrive Saturday or the next business day per FedEx's schedule; orders placed after the Friday cutoff move to the next business day, which is usually Monday.
Are custom t-shirts really the only exception?
Yes — every other product (banners, yard signs, banner stands, backdrops, table runners, realtor signs, vehicle magnets, business cards) follows same-day production plus free overnight shipping. Only custom t-shirts run 3–5 business days.
