Every Memphis quote has the same five parts: the crew, press time, the garments, setup and teardown, and travel. Only travel ignores your guest count. It covers getting the gear and crew from Fullerton to Memphis and stays flat, so each shirt gets cheaper as a Memphis event gets bigger. Most events come in between $5,000 and $15,000 all-in.
What's on every Memphis quote
| Included | What it means |
|---|---|
| Crew | Printers who've run busy lines, staffed to match how many guests you expect and how long you print. |
| Equipment | Every press, dryer, heat press, table and can of ink, trucked in by freight and assembled in your room. Your part is the floor and the outlets. |
| Garments | XS through 4XL, bought against your guest count so the last person in line still finds a size. |
| Setup & teardown | We load in, build, pull a test print ahead of doors, and pack out when your program ends. |
| Every print | The printing itself. There's no per-shirt charge added at the end. |
What moves a Memphis number
- Guest count: a bigger crowd adds printers, presses and blanks.
- Hours: a short gallery night in South Main costs less than a full show day at Renasant Convention Center.
- Garments: a basic tee and a heavyweight hoodie are far apart, and the blank is the easiest lever to pull.
- Stations: a second setup, usually a hat bar, about doubles what you get and what you pay.
- Travel: Mid-South events handled end to end, with travel and lodging on one clear line.
Freight and crew travel for Memphis are quoted as one fixed line, so the cost per shirt drops as your event grows.
Every line is shown separately, so you can move any one of them. When the total has to come down, garments and hours move it most. Printing for three hours at the convention center instead of six, or choosing a lighter blank, saves more than trimming guests. Send the date and a headcount and we'll price your actual Memphis room.
