Straightforward Banners That Get Results
Custom printing for Washington Park shops, ministries, programs and neighborhood celebrations
We keep banner projects simple, with fast pricing, practical advice and sturdy printing that helps you reach neighbors and passing drivers alike.
Banners for Your Neighborhood
Washington Park is a St. Clair County village just east of East St. Louis, with major interstate routes running close by and plenty of local traffic on its streets. For a small business, church or community program here, a banner is one of the most practical ways to be seen. It costs far less than a permanent sign and can go up the same day you receive it. Metro East Signs is a short drive away in Shiloh, and we print custom banners for businesses, ministries, youth programs, block parties and community events. We focus on clear messages, durable materials and fair pricing. Tell us what you want people to know, whether it is a sale, a service time or an event date, and we will help you turn it into a banner that works.
Ordering Banners Made Simple
Ordering a banner does not have to be complicated. Most projects come down to a few decisions. First, decide where it will hang, because that tells us whether it needs outdoor vinyl, mesh for windy fences or a lighter indoor material. Second, think about who will read it and from how far away. A banner facing a busy road needs large, bold words, while one inside a hall can include more detail. Third, choose how it will be mounted. Grommets work with zip ties, rope and hooks, while pole pockets suit frames and posts. Finally, settle on the design. You can send us finished artwork, or we can help arrange your logo, message and contact information into a clean layout. We guide you through each step so you know exactly what to expect.

Our FAQ's
What should a block party or community event banner include?
Focus on the essentials: the event name, date, time and location, plus a short line about what to expect, such as food, music or games. Use the largest text for the event name and date. If the banner will stay up for several weeks beforehand, make sure the date stands out clearly so people remember it when the day arrives.
How do zip ties and bungee cords compare for hanging banners?
Zip ties hold a banner tightly in place and work well on fences and railings where there is little wind. Bungee cords have some stretch, letting a banner flex slightly during gusts, which reduces stress on grommets. Many people use bungees at the corners and zip ties in between. Either way, keep the banner taut so it does not flap.
Is it better to fold or roll a banner for storage?
Rolling is better. Folding can leave permanent creases and may crack the ink along fold lines, especially in cold weather. Roll the banner around a cardboard tube with the printed side facing out, which helps prevent the surface from cracking. Store it upright or flat in a dry place, away from direct heat or moisture.
