Custom DTF Transfers Vancouver & BC | Western Canada Fast Shipping
If you have ever ordered from a Canadian DTF supplier and watched the tracking sit in Ontario for two days before it even started moving west, you already know the problem.
Most suppliers in Canada are based in Ontario or Quebec. That works great if you are in Toronto. If you are in Vancouver, you are looking at 5 business days by ground freight. For a rush order, that is not an option. For restock orders, it means carrying more inventory than you would like just to protect against the wait.
Pressing Images is in Calgary. BC orders typically arrive in 1-2 business days. That is not a best-case scenario, that is the standard.
Why Vancouver and BC Print Shops Choose Pressing Images Over Eastern Suppliers
Shipping time: Eastern Canada to Vancouver runs 4-5 days by freight. Calgary to Vancouver runs 1-2 days. If you are working on a turnaround for a client, that gap matters.
Shipping cost: Distance drives freight cost. Shorter haul from Alberta means you are not overpaying on every order just because of where your supplier chose to set up shop.
Support access: We operate on Mountain Time, which puts us one hour ahead of BC. When you have a file question at 9am Pacific, we are already at our desk.
What Vancouver Makers Are Ordering
- DTF gang sheets (custom layout, full colour, your artwork)
- UV DTF wraps and cold cup transfers
- Sublimation blanks (tumblers, mugs, performance tees)
- Epoxy resin supplies
BC decorators, embroidery shops, print-on-demand operations, and makers running Etsy storefronts all use the same ordering system. Upload, choose your quantity, and we ship.
