How long does custom screen printing take in Brookline?
Most custom screen printing orders at Screen Printing by Airo in Brookline, MA are ready in about 2 weeks from the time your order is approved. Approval normally means a deposit (typically 50%) or full payment before we start; trusted recurring customers may skip the deposit.
That timeline covers screen printing, DTF (Direct-To-Film), and embroidery from our family-owned shop at 6 Brington Road. The clock starts after we have your approved digital proof, final sizes, and payment—not from the first email or quote request. Once those pieces are locked, we order blanks,decorate everything in-house, and notify you when the job is ready for pickup or shipping.
What “approved” means
We send a digital mockup before production. When you approve the proof and settle the deposit or balance, we schedule the job. Changes after approval—new artwork, different colors, or size swaps—can push the ready date, so it helps to lock details early.
What can change the timeline?
Artwork revisions after the proof
Specialty colors or garment styles that take longer to arrive from suppliers
Peak seasons for schools and teams in the Boston area
Rush requests (sometimes possible case by case—ask us; we never invent a flat rush fee)
If you have a hard event date, tell us up front when you request a quote so we can be honest about whether the standard two-week window works.
