Looking for screen printing in San Francisco? We do it live, as one part of a full event kit: real presses and real ink pulling custom apparel on site, with DTF, a hat bar or embroidery running next to it when the event calls for them.
Screen printing at your event
The usual route in the city is to send a file to a shop and pick up boxes a week later. Live turns that around. The press comes into your venue and prints in front of the crowd, the same finish as a shop print, now part of the event. It fits Moscone product launches, big developer conferences and Mission Bay campus days, anywhere one design goes on a lot of shirts.
Custom apparel we screen print
- Tees and tanks: the standard, in a full XS to 4XL run.
- Hoodies and crewnecks: heavier pieces that feel like a real gift on a cold night by the bay.
- Totes and flat goods: they print well live too.
Serving San Francisco and the Bay Area
The presses drive up from La Habra and load in anywhere from Moscone Center to Fort Mason Center, and on to Oakland, Berkeley or the Peninsula. Each press prints up to 60 shirts an hour, and a two-press station does 100+.
Quick estimate: send the headcount and the run time and we'll size the screen-print setup for your venue, itemized, within 24 hours.
The live screen printing page has the details, the DTF comparison helps you choose, and the quote form gets you a number.
Planning notes
Before the truck leaves La Habra
A press at Moscone West, a SOMA conference-floor party or a warehouse night at The Midway in Dogpatch starts with the same drawing: truck access, power and a line that doesn't block anyone.
San Francisco is a long day up the I-5 from our shop, so the kit goes up by truck the day before: presses, heat presses, flash dryers, blanks, tables and signage, with the printers who run them. Plan on about 10x10 ft and two 120V/20A circuits per station. A two-press station does 100+ shirts an hour with a short design menu.
