Calgary's DTF demand has seasonal peaks: Stampede week in July drives custom western-themed merch, corporate conference season ramps safety wear and branded polos, and oilpatch teams order crew tees and hi-vis blends year-round. DTF handles the short runs and photo detail screen printing can't match economically.

Straight answers to what customers ask us most.
Orders to Calgary ship from our Vancouver facility and typically arrive in 1–2 business days via Canada Post Expedited. Production takes 1 business day for most orders — add that to your transit estimate to get a delivery date. Order before 2 PM PST Monday, arrive Tuesday or Wednesday.
No minimum. Order a single transfer or a run of thousands. The smallest sheet size is a $10 gang sheet — below that we'd be printing more box and label than transfer.
100% cotton, polyester, cotton/poly blends, tri-blends, nylon, spandex, denim, canvas, and most performance fabrics. No pre-treatment needed. Press at 280°F / 138°C for 10 seconds, hot peel, then cure for 5 seconds.
Yes. Alberta is one of our fastest shipping lanes — Canada Post Expedited gets transfers to Calgary in 1–2 days, and we can upgrade to XpressPost or FedEx/Purolator for next-morning delivery. For genuine same-next-day needs, mention your deadline at checkout and DTF Vancouver's team will quote the fastest lane — typically a small upgrade for guaranteed Calgary morning delivery.
There are few dedicated DTF suppliers based in Calgary or Alberta — most Western Canadian print shops either run limited in-house DTF or source from Ontario/Quebec with 4–5 day transit. DTF Vancouver delivers Alberta in 1–2 days from the closest major production facility to Calgary, with no minimum, no setup fees, and consistent per-inch pricing that scales cleanly for resellers.
Our steadiest Calgary customers are Stampede merchandise vendors and western-wear brands, corporate merch programs for oil & gas and energy companies, Calgary-area print shops using us for overflow and short-run jobs, CrossFit and fitness apparel brands, and event companies producing custom apparel for festivals, trade shows, and charity runs across southern Alberta. DTF Vancouver's 9-color print quality handles the detailed photo-realistic designs Calgary streetwear and tourism brands need.
Our standard per-square-inch pricing is already built for print shops and resellers — no tier gates, no wholesale application process, no setup fees. Alberta print shops running consistent weekly orders typically order at standard rates and resell at their markup. For larger recurring commercial accounts, DTF Vancouver sets up direct B2B relationships with invoicing terms — contact us at 1-833-879-3237 to discuss.
PNG with a transparent background at 300 DPI produces the best results. We also accept PDF, AI, and PSD. Artwork should be sized at the exact dimensions you want printed — no excess canvas, no background, no mirroring. Our DTF Glossary explains every artwork term and How to Order walks through the full upload process.
