MIDTOWN SACRAMENTO · SACRAMENTO AREA
Banners
in Midtown Sacramento.
Storefront-dense, walkable, and hard on signage. Midtown is the closest thing Sacramento has to a district where the sign is the marketing.

Most orders for banners from Midtown Sacramento start the same way: somebody measures a space, realizes they need this sooner than they thought, and starts calling. That call is short here: the price is posted, the shop is about 5 miles away, and the person answering can see the queue.
Midtown Sacramento, and who buys banners there.
The businesses ordering banners in Midtown Sacramento cluster into a few recognizable groups. Professional and government offices, restaurants, cafes and food business, retail and storefront business chief among them.
Because so much of it is date-driven, the 10 AM cutoff matters more here than almost anywhere.
The Midtown order pattern is small, frequent, and time-sensitive: window lettering with hours and a phone number, sandwich boards for the day’s specials, menus that change with the season, event banners for Second Saturday and the block events that come with it, and the occasional full storefront wrap when someone decides to stop blending into the block.
Offices and agencies mostly need banners for conferences, hearings, open days and table graphics rather than for the building itself.
Restaurants use banners for openings, patio seasons, new hours and delivery announcements: the things that change faster than a permanent sign can keep up with.
Storefront and promotional banners do the heavy lifting for retail here, because a banner large enough to read from the road costs less than most permanent signage and can be up the same afternoon.
What it costs.
Vinyl banners are posted at $6 per square foot, hemmed and grommeted: the finishing is in the price, not added afterwards.
Multiply width by height in feet: a 2×4 is $48, a 3×6 is $108, a 3×8 is $144, a 4×10 is $240.
We publish the whole list rather than quoting on request, which means you can budget before you pick up the phone, and the person calling in a panic gets the same number as the one who planned three weeks out. The full list is here.
The part worth knowing.
Size is the decision that costs people money, and it goes wrong in one direction: ordering a step down to save thirty dollars, then discovering the sign can’t be read from where people actually stand. Measure the space, then work backwards from reading distance. Roughly an inch of letter height per ten feet, more if the reader is moving.
Never staple a banner through the middle of the material: the first gust tears it from the staple. Tie through the grommets, and if it’s hanging from a pole rather than tied, ask for pole pockets instead. Different construction, same principle: attach to the finishing, not to the print.
Getting banners from Midtown Sacramento.
From 1835 Fulton Ave it’s a straight shot down to the Capital City Freeway and off at one of the lettered-street exits, about five miles and, outside of commute hours, well under fifteen minutes. Midtown’s grid makes the last part easy: numbered streets one way, lettered streets the other, and your address tells you exactly where you are.
Most banners ordered before 10:00 AM Monday to Friday are finished the same afternoon. If the drive is the awkward part rather than the deadline, ask about delivery when you place the order. It’s available on many jobs, though for a genuinely same-day deadline collecting at the counter is still fastest.
Questions we get from Midtown Sacramento.
Are hems and grommets extra?
No. Both are included in the $6 per square foot. That’s worth checking against any other quote you’re comparing, because a lower square-foot rate with finishing added back on is often the more expensive banner.
Can you print a banner from a photo I took?
Sometimes. It depends on resolution. Aim for around 300 dpi at the printed size; a phone photo often has enough for a modest banner and nowhere near enough for a 4×10. Send it and we’ll tell you honestly before it prints rather than after.
How far is the shop from Midtown Sacramento?
About 5 miles. We’re at 1835 Fulton Ave, Sacramento, CA 95825, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with parking in front and more in the rear.
Is it worth coming to Fulton Avenue from Midtown Sacramento?
Customers do it, and the reasons show up in their reviews: the prices are posted, the work is made on site, and same-day means today rather than the middle of next week. If a given order doesn’t justify the drive, ask about delivery.
