Close Enough to Stop By

A Shiloh sign shop that makes pickup or delivery easy for Lebanon

With our shop a short drive away, Lebanon businesses can review options in person, collect finished orders themselves, or have them dropped off.

The Value of a Neighboring Shop


Lebanon and Shiloh are neighbors in St. Clair County, and that closeness makes a real difference when you are choosing a sign company. You can stop by to talk through an idea, pick up an order on your way to an errand, or have it brought to your door. Lebanon's historic downtown along St. Louis Street draws browsers to antique shops, restaurants, and small boutiques, while McKendree University keeps a steady flow of students and visitors in town. Those businesses and organizations need signs that fit a classic brick streetscape and still communicate clearly. Metro East Signs works with Lebanon customers on storefront panels, window lettering, sidewalk signs, and event pieces. Because we are so close, follow-up questions and quick changes rarely turn into long delays. A nearby shop simply makes the whole process feel easier.

How a Sign Order Moves Along

Understanding the flow of a sign order helps you plan around it. First, you describe your project, ideally with photos and rough measurements. The sign company then prepares an estimate covering materials, size, and cost. When you approve it, design work begins and you receive a proof showing exactly how the sign will look. After any revisions, you give final approval, and the order moves into production. Once it is complete, you choose pickup or delivery. Each stage depends on clear communication, so a responsive shop matters. At Metro East Signs, we let you know when your proof is ready, when production is underway, and when the order is finished. If you are planning around a grand opening or seasonal event, tell us early so we can talk realistically about how the schedule fits together.

Lebanon's Practical Sign Partner

Our location makes delivery available almost next door, though many Lebanon customers enjoy picking up their orders and seeing them in person first. Either way works. Before that, we offer same-day estimates so you can make decisions quickly, whether you are preparing for a downtown sidewalk sale or updating a storefront before a new semester begins. We also believe in quality products at fair prices; a small shop or student organization should not have to stretch its budget to get a sign that looks professional and lasts. Being part of the same corner of the Metro East means we understand the rhythm of the area, from busy weekends downtown to campus events. We are glad to be the sign company Lebanon calls when something needs to look right.

Our FAQ's

Is it better to pick up a sign order or have it delivered?

It depends on your schedule and the size of the order. Pickup lets you inspect the finished signs at the shop and ask any last questions. Delivery saves you a trip and works well for larger orders or busy weeks. Both are available, and you can decide when your order is ready rather than committing at the start.

How do I get a quick estimate for a small shop's first sign?

Call or email us with the sign's purpose, where it will hang, an approximate size, and whether you have a logo file. A photo of the storefront or window helps us suggest the right material. Same-day estimates are available, so you can usually expect pricing the same day you reach out with those basic details.

What happens between approving a proof and receiving my finished signs?

After approval, your design goes into production using the materials listed in your estimate. We print or cut, finish, and inspect the signs, then add any hardware specified in your order. Once everything is ready, we contact you to arrange pickup or delivery. If you have a firm date in mind, mention it early so we can plan accordingly.
