Shipping FAQs

Q: Which shipping carrier do you use? Can I ship to a PO Box?

A. We ship exclusively with the United States Postal Service (USPS) and delivery confirmation is always included, unless prohibited by the Post Office. When items must be expedited we use Priority or Express Mail by USPS. This means you may use a PO Box as your shipping address for standard orders with no problem.  APO AE addresses are also totally fine.

Q: How much does shipping cost?

A. We do all kinds of online shopping and we chafe at shipping charges too.  So we offer Free Shipping for all of our pre-designed vinyl Wall Quotes®.  This means that if your order has even one vinyl Wall Quotes® decal from any of our pre-designed collections, the entire order ships free. For orders without a pre-designed Wall Quotes® decal, any order over $50 ships for free and everything else ships for a simple $5.00 flat rate. Just enter the code ShipItToMe at check out to apply these fabulous shipping rates to your order.

Domestic:
Standard shipping on all orders: Free for all orders with a Wall Quotes® decal or over $50.00; $5.00 flat rate for everything else.

International (You are responsible for any customs fees charged by your country):
Standard shipping on Canadian orders: $10.00
Standard shipping on all other International orders: $15.00
Expedited shipping: International Priority delivery service may be available. Please contact us for more information and a quote for the additional shipping charge.

Q: How long does it take for my order to arrive?

A.While production time varies slightly depending on which products you order, you can generally expect your order to arrive in 5 to 7 business days (to the continental United States). If you choose to pay with an e-check through Paypal, your order will not arrive until 5 to 7 business days after the payment clears (which can take up to 14 days, depending on your bank). Please note that extreme weather conditions can delay mail delivery and we are not responsible for such delays. Please contact us prior to ordering with concerns about delivery times; we’re happy to work with any deadlines.

Please note: Canadian and International orders naturally require additional time for delivery. Most orders, both domestic and international, are custom cut and shipped within 3 business days, but international delivery times vary depending on location. Most arrive within 7 to 14 business days from the shipment date.

Q: I need it yesterday.  Can I expedite my order?

A. Certainly. Our expedited rate starts at $30.00 and your order will arrive in 3 to 4 business days. The expedited rate includes moving your order to the front of the production line and shipping via priority mail to ensure quick delivery.  If you need to have your order shipped overnight, or need a guaranteed delivery date, please contact us to make the necessary arrangements. We can make it happen.

Canadian and International Priority delivery service may be available. Please contact us for more information and a quote for the additional shipping charge.

Expedited shipping rates depend on the order total:

  • If your order total is between $0 and $75.00, expedited shipping costs $30.00
  • If your order total is between $75.01 and $150.00, expedited shipping costs $45.00
  • If your order total is between $150.01 and $300.00 then expedited shipping costs $60.00
  • If your order total is between $300.01 and $500.00 then expedited shipping costs $85.00
  • If your order total is between $500.01 and $750.00 then expedited shipping costs $120.00
  • If your order total is between $750.01 and $1000.00 then expedited shipping costs $150.00
  • If your order total is more than $1000.00 then expedited shipping costs $200.00

Q: Do you ship to Canada?  How about Australia?  Brazil? Italy? The North Pole?

A.Absolutely.  We ship all international orders through the Post Office.  Canadian orders qualify for $10 flat rate shipping.  But we’ll ship anywhere (we ship regularly to the UK and the Netherlands and have even sent Wall Quotes® to India and Qatar). International customers will need to select our $15.00 flat-rate international shipping at checkout. We understand that international shipping rates can often border on punitive, so we do our best to offer you an affordable rate, but in any case you will be responsible for any customs, duty, applicable taxes and import fees that may be incurred during shipping.  Also, International Priority delivery service may be available. Please contact us for more information and a quote for the additional shipping charge.

Please note: If we have to re-ship your order because of an incorrect or insufficient address, you will be charged a re-ship fee of $5.00. We would very much like to keep our flat shipping rate low for all of our customers, so please check and double-check your shipping address at checkout.  Because, for example, if you live in Miami and put 7th St instead of 7th Ave, that changes the zip code and really makes things difficult.  Do us a solid and double check, eh?

Product questions

Q: What are the Wall Quotes® wall decals made of?

A. Our Wall Quotes® are made of high quality vinyl with a self-adhesive backing. They’re very thin and designed to adhere to many surfaces. We use vinyl with a matte finish so that they literally look as though they’ve been painted on the wall (without all the trouble and mess of actually painting letters on the wall). They’re durable and will last literally as long as you want to keep them on the wall (though the manufacturer says 7-10 years). Your vinyl letters will arrive on one sheet in what looks like three layers. The top layer is an opaque transfer tape, the second layer is your vinyl lettering and the third layer is a stiff wax paper-like backing.

Q: How do I apply my vinyl Wall Quotes or custom vinyl lettering?

A. Find a picture tutorial here that explains how to correctly apply your vinyl wall letters.

Q: Any tips for best results?

A. You betcha.  First – if you’ve recently painted, be sure to allow at least 2 weeks (and preferably 3-4 weeks) for the new paint to cure.  If you apply your new Wall Quotes® wall decal too early, it may peel away from and lose adhesion due to the off-gas released while the paint cures.  Second - apply your new Wall Quotes® wall decal within 3-4 weeks of receipt.  The opaque transfer tape and vinyl adhesive are at their prime during this window.  If you’ve left it too long, it should still work, but the time and patience required will be significantly higher than if you’ve applied it right away. Third – follow the application instructions carefully and use the squeegee we include in every order.  Take your time and be sure you have all the materials you will need on hand.  Though it’s certainly possible to apply even a huge wall decal on your own, it always helps to have an extra pair of hands. Fourth - use a level to ensure your vinyl Wall Quotes® decal is positioned properly.  Do not use the backing paper as a guide for level; instead use the baseline of the text. 

Q: Will vinyl Wall Quotes damage the paint or texture on my walls?

A. No. Our vinyl is renter-friendly, home-designer-friendly, and low-maintenance-friendly. We use a high quality vinyl made with a high quality clear removable adhesive that allows it to stick to your walls for years and removes easily without any damage or wear to the wall should you need to move or choose to change your home's décor. Just peel it off with your fingers and wipe the wall down with a warm, damp cloth and you're set. If however, you are placing the stickers on a wall or door where the paint is already peeling or bubbling, this could cause the paint to chip...but this disclaimer sounds remarkably like those that warn against using a hair dryer while in the shower.

Q: My walls are textured.  Will vinyl Wall Quotes® wall decals stick to them?

A. Yes, we use a high quality vinyl that has great flexibility without compromising adhesive strength. If your walls are textured, you’ll need to spend a little extra time to apply pressure to each letter/portion of the graphic during application in order to remove any air bubbles and ensure that the vinyl has formed to the texture. Standard orange peel texture offers no problem, heavier texture might pose problems – please contact us for a sample to try on your wall to ensure adequate adhesion. My walls are textured and that hasn’t stopped me – but it does take a little extra time and careful pressing to get the Wall Quotes® to adhere properly. And every so often I need to repress a letter or two to help it reform to the texture.  Click here to see a close up of how your letters will look on a textured wall.

Q: I’ve recently painted my wall.  How long should I wait to apply the Wall Quotes® decal?

A. You must wait at least 2 weeks for new paint to cure.  Although the paint is dry, it takes at least that long to be completely cured.  If you can – wait 3-4 weeks to be absolutely certain.  If you apply the vinyl Wall Quotes® too soon, the adhesive will be compromised by the chemicals released as the paint cures, and will very likely buckle, stretch, and peel away from the wall.

Q: I just got my Wall Quotes® decals in the mail, but I’m not quite ready to put it up yet.  Is it okay to store it for awhile?

A. Ideally, you should apply the Wall Quotes® decal within 3-4 weeks of receiving it.  The longer you wait to apply it, especially if it’s exposed to extreme temperatures, the more likely you are to have to spend more time on application.  The vinyl is rated for up to several years, but the opaque transfer tape is meant only for temporary use and its adhesive integrity is thus less reliable.  If you’ve stored the Wall Quotes® for awhile, the transfer tape may not stick well to the letters, making it difficult to get them to release from the backing paper. Or it may stick too well, making it difficult to get the letters to stay on the wall.  It’s still totally possible to make the Wall Quotes® work properly and get it to both release from the backing paper and stick to the wall, but it will take more patience and time on your part.  If you’re having trouble, please contact us and we’ll be happy to offer some suggestions to make this process as painless as possible.  But to avoid any complications – we simply suggest applying the Wall Quotes® as soon as possible after it arrives in the mail.

Q: Are there any surfaces that Wall Quotes® decals won’t stick to?

A. Unfortunately, yes. Our vinyl Wall Quotes® work perfectly on many surfaces, but they won't stick to heavy texture, flat paint, plaster, raw concrete, unfinished wood, wallpaper, brick, or stucco and are not recommended for cinder block walls or paneling. If you're wondering whether they'll work on your wall or not, contact us and we can offer more direction and a small sample to test on the surface.

Q: Are the Wall Quotes decals and custom vinyl lettering reusable?

A. Unfortunately, no. The Wall Quotes® decals can only be used once.  They tend to stretch and often tear during removal; re-using them is therefore impossible. If you need something re-usable then check out our Textstyles™ line of patterned vinyl letters or printed vinyl. Please contact us with any questions and we can create something that will meet your needs and rock your walls with awesomeness.

Q: How do I remove my vinyl wall letters or family stickers?

A. Our vinyl Wall Quotes® decals can be easily removed by placing a fingernail underneath a corner of the letter and pulling away. When removing the vinyl from glass, a windshield, or a mirror, do not use a razor blade as this will separate the vinyl from the adhesive and necessitate the use of a solvent to remove the adhesive. If you pull the vinyl away from the glass it will remove the adhesive at the same time and any trace of the adhesive can be washed away with a warm rag and gentle cleaning solution.

Q: Can I clean the Wall Quote decal?

A. Absolutely.  Just use a microfiber cloth (so the little fibers in say a paper towel don’t get stuck on the edges of the letters) and a gentle cleansing solution.  Wipe gently (you don’t want to tear the decal off the wall).  I’ve had a Wall Quotes® decal on our bathroom mirror for more than five years now.  I clean the mirror regularly with glass cleaner and yes, a paper towel.  Every so often fibers stick to the edges, but I wipe them away with a microfiber cloth and it’s good to go.  Sparkling mirror, wall decal intact.  Same holds true when I wash the walls (which, let’s admit it, is fairly rare though the odd crayon incident has inspired a thorough cleaning every now and again).

Custom Request FAQs

Q: I have custom design in mind, but I'm not sure how to order.

A. We love designing new things, so please feel free to contact us and explain as much as you can about your idea.

Q: How much do you charge for custom graphics?

A.Custom art fees are based on the size and complexity of your design so they must be estimated on a case-by-case basis. Custom designs involving just text rarely require an art fee, but if we're creating a logo, modifying an existing logo and/or matching a particular design or shape then a custom art fee will apply.  Our graphic design fees start at $25 per hour. If you are not sure if your project requires an art fee, just contact us with your idea and we will respond with a full quote in one business day.

Q: Do you have colors available other than those shown on the website?

A. Yes.  Though we have a huge selection of vinyl colors to choose from that will match nearly any décor, we also have a full-color printer and can match any CMYK custom color.  We know this will be particularly helpful for logos and company-specific color schemes.  Please contact us with the details of your project and we’ll be happy to provide a full quote in one business day.

Q: Do you offer reflective vinyl?

A. We do.  We also offer several other specialty vinyl and custom colors.  Our reflective vinyl is a hi-grade outdoor-rated vinyl and the same used by many ambulance companies.  It is well known for its long life, reliability and flexibility.

Q. Do you offer full-color printing for vinyl stickers?

A. Absolutely.  We also offer full-bleed printing to eliminate that ungainly white border around the graphics and designs.  These graphics are also reusable and repositionable (which is awesome).  Please contact us for more information and a full quote for your custom project.

Q: I would like to use a font that I don't see on your website.

A. We have found that the same font is often known by several different names, and we have hundreds of fonts at our disposition, but not all of them are listed on our site.  If you can't find the exact font that you are looking for in our list online, just contact us with the font name (and a sample text if possible) and we will check our extensive font library. In most cases we will have the font you’re looking for or be able to find one very similar to it.

Q: I already have a logo; can you make a vinyl sticker for my car/office/wall?

A. Certainly. Just email us a vector art file (.ai, .cdr, .pdf or .eps) and your specifications and we can provide you with a quote. If you don't have a vector art file, you can email us with a digital image of the logo (.jpeg, .gif, .png) and we can work up an estimate. A custom art fee may apply if you do not have the vector file of your logo.
