Whether you're outfitting a construction crew, gearing up for a charity run, or ordering staff polos for your restaurant, placing a bulk custom apparel order doesn't have to be complicated. At Wheaton Shirt Company, we've helped hundreds of local businesses and organizations across the western suburbs get exactly what they need — on time and on budget.

Step 1: Know Your Quantity

Bulk pricing gets better the more you order. Here's a quick overview of how pricing tiers work for screen printing, embroidery, and sublimation orders:

  • 12–49 pieces: Starting at $12.00/unit — great for small teams and pilot runs

  • 50–199 pieces: Starting at $9.50/unit — ideal for events, leagues, and growing teams

  • 200–499 pieces: Starting at $7.75/unit — perfect for corporate uniforms and restaurants

  • 500+ pieces: Starting at $5.99/unit — best value, includes a dedicated account rep

Step 2: Choose Your Decoration Method

Each method has its strengths depending on your design, garment, and use case:

  • Screen Printing: Best for bold, multi-color designs on cotton tees and hoodies. Highly durable and cost-effective at volume.

  • Embroidery: Ideal for polos, jackets, and corporate wear. Adds a professional, premium look with raised stitching.

  • Sublimation: Perfect for all-over prints and performance wear. Colors are embedded into the fabric — they never fade, crack, or peel.

Step 3: Submit Your Quote Request
