Where Iowa Businesses Put DTF to Work
Des Moines and Central Iowa
Insurance and financial offices, startups and small brands around Des Moines, Ankeny and Ames order short runs for staff shirts, company events and campus groups.
Cedar Rapids, Iowa City and the Corridor
Manufacturers, restaurants and college groups print polos, event tees and limited drops, and reorder when a design sells out.
The Quad Cities, Dubuque and the River Towns
Mississippi River businesses, marinas and festival committees print crew shirts and souvenir tees for the summer season.
Fairs, Farms and Small Towns
County fairs, youth livestock clubs, co-ops and small-town festivals print exhibitor shirts, volunteer gear and event-dated merch every summer.
What Makes Our Prints Different
Every order is printed to order with vivid CMYK plus white ink on premium hot-peel film. DTF prints stay soft and flexible on cotton, polyester and blends, and UV DTF decals add a glossy, slightly raised finish to hard surfaces such as glass, metal, ceramic, hard plastic and sealed wood. If anything arrives misprinted or damaged, email photos within 7 days and we'll reprint or refund it — see our quality promise.
How Ordering Works
- Send your artwork. Build a gang sheet in the Gang Sheet Builder, upload a finished layout, or order one design with DTF Transfers by Size.
- We print it exactly as submitted, with no edits to your file.
- Press or peel. DTF presses at 315–325°F for 6–12 seconds, then hot peels. UV DTF simply peels, places, rubs down and lifts the film — no heat press needed.

No. We're an online print company based in the Northeast, with no storefront and no local pickup. Every order ships with tracking.
How do I apply DTF transfers?
Press at 315–325°F with medium-firm pressure for 6–12 seconds, then peel hot. See our heat press instructions.
How fast will my order reach Iowa?
Gang sheets and transfers ordered by 2 PM ET on business days ship the same day, and Iowa typically sees 3–5 business days in transit. Custom apparel ships in 3–5 business days, and embroidery in 5–7, before transit.
Is there a minimum order?
No. Order a single transfer, one shirt or a full gang sheet up to 240 inches long. Orders of $120 or more ship free.
How early should we order for a county fair or summer festival?
Order at least a week before your event date, and earlier in July and August when fair season peaks. That leaves time for shipping, pressing and a quick reprint if anything arrives damaged.
