Bulk Custom T Shirts
Screen printed in-house in Tempe since 1981 — volume pricing that drops as your quantity climbs, mixed sizes in a single run, digital proofs before production, and local pickup when twenty boxes of shirts shouldn't ride a freight truck.
How Bulk Custom T-Shirt Pricing Works
Nobody publishes honest bulk pricing because it genuinely depends on three variables. Here they are, plainly — so you know exactly what moves the number on your quote before you ever call.
Screens Are the Fixed Cost
Every ink color in your design requires its own screen to be made and set up. That setup cost is the same whether you print 12 shirts or 1,200 — which is exactly why bulk custom t shirts get cheaper per piece as the order grows.
Quantity Spreads the Cost
Once screens are burned, they run the entire order. A hundred shirts spread the setup a hundred ways, so per-shirt pricing at 100+ looks nothing like pricing at 20. If you're on the fence between two quantities, ask us to quote both — the jump often costs less than you'd expect.
Garment & Colors Set the Rest
A budget cotton tee and a retail-soft tri-blend carry different blank costs, and a one-color print runs leaner than a four-color front-and-back. Your quote itemizes all of it, with a digital mockup, before anything prints.

Ordering custom printed t shirts in bulk is simpler than most first-timers expect, because the shop does the heavy lifting. You bring three things: your artwork in the best format you have, a rough quantity with a size breakdown, and your deadline. We handle everything between those inputs and the finished boxes.
Mixed sizes are standard, not special — a 200-shirt run can be any split from small through plus sizes as long as the print stays the same, and that's how nearly every bulk order runs. Reordering later is easier still: your artwork and specs stay on file, so round two takes a phone call.
First time buying custom bulk t shirts and not sure what garment to pick? Come by the Tempe showroom, feel the fabric tiers side by side, and we'll match the blank to your budget before you commit to a full run.

Screen Printed Tees
The classic bulk run — start here
The classic bulk order is still the screen printed tee — see the full range on our custom t-shirts page — and every style above prints in the same run at the same volume pricing. Not sure which fabric survives an Arizona summer event versus a company store? Ask; we've printed both since 1981.
The Shop Behind Your Bulk Order
Before you hand anyone a 500-shirt order, you should see where it runs. This is our production floor in Tempe — the presses, the machines, and the showroom where bulk orders are proofed, printed, and boxed.
No brokering and no drop-shipping. When capacity, timelines, and quality control matter — and at bulk quantities they always do — in-house is the only answer we've ever offered.

Bulk Custom T Shirts: FAQ
How do I order bulk custom t shirts?
Five steps: request a quote with your garment, quantity, ink colors, and deadline; send your artwork along with a size breakdown; approve the digital proof we build for you; we screen print and quality-check the run in-house in Tempe; then pick up locally, arrange East Valley delivery, or ship anywhere in Arizona. Request a quote online or call 480-967-7015 to start.
How much are custom t shirts in bulk?
Bulk pricing is driven by three things: the garment you choose, the number of ink colors and print locations, and the total quantity. Screens are a fixed setup cost that gets reused across the entire run, so the per-shirt price drops significantly as quantity climbs — that's why 100 shirts cost far less per piece than 20. Every quote is itemized with a digital mockup before production. Call 480-967-7015 for exact numbers.
What's the minimum quantity for bulk pricing?
Bulk screen printing pricing starts at 12 pieces, since each ink color requires its own screen setup. The economics keep improving from there, with meaningful per-shirt savings as orders grow into the dozens and hundreds. Need fewer than 12? Our DTF printing has no minimums.
Can I order custom t-shirts in bulk with different sizes?
Yes. A bulk order can mix sizes however you need — small through plus sizes — as long as the print stays the same, and that's how most orders run. Send us your size breakdown with your artwork and we'll sort the rest. Size range availability depends on the garment you choose, and we spell out any size-related details in your quote.
