If we don’t carry the garment you need, you may supply your own. We’ll take every effort to ensure quality, but please review these requirements first:

• Garments must be brand new and unworn (for equipment protection and sanitary reasons).
• Wescan assumes no responsibility for replacing/reimbursing customer garments that become damaged or imperfect in our care. Fabrics vary by brand and there is no warranty on customer-supplied items or decoration.
• Some items cannot be decorated due to cuts, seams, zippers, or other features that prevent machine operation. Non-tee items should be emailed or brought in for assessment before ordering.
• Because misprints can occur, misprints on customer-supplied garments will not be reimbursed or replaced. Please provide extras—the greater of 2 pieces or 5% of the total.
• Check for coatings (e.g., water-repellent finishes) that reduce print longevity.
• We will not print on items with high sentimental value or on expensive, hard-to-replace garments. By supplying your own items, you acknowledge permanent damage is possible and won’t be replaced by Wescan.

Additional Handling Fees

• Receiving, sorting, and handling customer garments incurs additional fees (not included in print pricing).
• Unpacking/repacking fees apply for individually packaged items. If possible, bring garments unbagged.
• Please remove stickers/attachments (size neck tags may remain).

How to Organize Garments Before Drop-off

• Sort by size (smallest on top of the box).
• Group by design/ink color (e.g., separate Red-ink and Blue-ink boxes).
• For embroidered names, label each garment with its name.
• Ensure items aren’t individually poly-bagged.

What is dye migration? On polyester and many athletic blends, garment dyes can re-gas when heated (e.g., during curing or in a clothes dryer) and migrate into printed inks—especially whites and light colors. This can cause a visible tint or discoloration (often pink/grey) that may appear hours or days after printing.

High-risk fabrics & colors

• Polyester or poly-rich blends (including performance wear and hoodies).
• Deep and saturated shades such as red, maroon, burgundy, kelly, forest, royal, navy, neons, and heathers.

Our policy

• While we use low-bleed inks and best practices, zero migration cannot be guaranteed on the materials above.
• To reduce risk, we may recommend blocker/gray base layers, specialized inks, lower cure temps, or alternate decoration methods (e.g., embroidery, DTF). These options can add cost and production time.
• Customer-supplied garments are printed at the customer’s risk with respect to dye migration.

Recommendations

• Choose 100% cotton or styles labeled “bleed-resistant.”
• For light/white prints on poly-rich colors, allow for a blocker base fee and potentially additional lead time.
• Avoid post-print high heat (e.g., hot dryers/irons) within the first 72 hours.

Collection Window: Orders must be picked up within 6 months of completion notice.

After 6 Months: Unclaimed items are considered abandoned and may be disposed of or donated to charity.

No Refunds: There is no reimbursement for any portion of unclaimed orders (garments, decoration, or services).

Customer Responsibility: Provide accurate contact information and pick up promptly. Contact us to make special pickup arrangements if needed.
